4C System Mini-GM Screen

Hey folks! I've recently posted a mini-GM screen up at RPGNow, and other OBS sites. It's a simple one that can be printed out on a single sheet of card stock, and folded to make a digest-sized screen…

Hi folks! I've started up an initiative to create an open source setting for use with the 4C System. I'm currently calling it the City of New Justice. By open source, I mean that it will be released…

Comment by Tim Kirk on February 19, 2010 at 3:03pm: Yeah. Understood.

Comment by Tim Kirk on February 19, 2010 at 2:50pm: I was trying to keep the same seven...with new names. In general and keeping a fun easy to remember acronym..:D

Comment by Chris Helton on February 19, 2010 at 1:51pm: Tim, I would suggest not getting bogged down in the details. Part of the appeal of a system like this is its lightness. Is a newly proposed trait something that is likely to be used multiple times during a game session? If the answer to that is no, then the new trait is probably better served as being a function of something that already exists.

Dictionary.com's thesaurus listed "learning" under Perception and Wisdom, but that fits better for Intellect. "Light" was also suggested, as in "the inner light," might fit, but could be confusing at first glance.

Comment by Tim Kirk on February 19, 2010 at 4:37am: Love the character sheet with the built in chart by the way.

Comment by Tim Kirk on February 19, 2010 at 4:36am: I'd like something a bit more elegant stat-line wise. I'm not sure yet, I need to get my copy out and review it.
