started playing a (sort of) RPG with my kids. it is called Stickguy and i dont have a link to the rules but it is pretty simple to play.
1. you draw a stickguy
2. you give the stickguy a career, and draw an appropriate design onto your stick man (a bussiness man would have a briefcase, a beauty queen a crown, etc.)
3. each player rolls the dice and are awarded experience points for the amount shown on dice.
4. a game master picks a story, adventure, whatever you call it. the characters fight mosters and such by rolling a six sided dice. each monster has a number you have to roll to have a successfull attack, you then roll again to determine damage. players who are hurt by the monsters lose 1 experience point.
5. experience can be used to make a dice roll successfull (if you need three, and roll a two, then you can use your experience point to make up the difference).
6. you can only have four objects at a time, and you can only find items appropriate to the setting (a crow bar at a consruction site, a gun on a dead cop, etc.)
7. the game master decides what has to be rolled to get some items (if he thinks an item is especiall useful, or to be a dick), and decides how useful the object is in combat.
otherwise there are no real rules, just that you really have to act out the little scenes and stuff. the kids an i agreed that this game is one of those retarded family things that would never be really fun for anyone but us because anyone else would most likely think us a bunch of huge dorks. we are, but some things are just retarded good fun, and you just have to roll with them.
we had a lot of fun playing, with me taking the game master role. i have pretty much exhusted my imagination for monsters to fight. so i am asking for some help. please create monsters for me.
they can be anything. last night i had flaming pigs and nuclear worms (which would make a great band name). the only things that I really need are a little desription of the monster, and how many points to hit (1 to 6) and how many points to kill (1 - one billion).
also, they don't have to be monsters, just bad guys of any sort.
thank you in advance for all of your wonderful suggestions.
