[Q&A] Craig Judd (Blade Bind)

[20:27] <+CraigJudd> Hi everyone, I’m Craig Judd, a game designer from Tasmania, Australia. I released the generic toolbox PowerFrame RPG last year, but this year I’ve been working on a very different project: Blade Bind.

[20:27] <+CraigJudd> Blade Bind is a GMless storygame with a focus on PvP and drama. Everybody plays one of the Chosen, highly-motivated individuals who have forged pacts with ancient supernatural swords known as Blades.

[20:28] <+CraigJudd> The Blades offer immense power, and only another of the Chosen can stand in your way, but the Blade’s real aim is to get you to bite off more than you can chew so it can take over and use you as the instrument of its own vengeance!

[20:28] <+CraigJudd> The game is built around a card-based duelling system that uses regular playing cards, and is informed by my own HEMA experience. As a whole, the game’s spiritual ancestors are Shinobigami and Eternal Contenders.

[Q&A] Neall Raemonn Price (Scion 2e)

[19:02] <+Neall> Hi! I’m Neall Raemonn Price, developer of Scion Second Edition from Onyx Path Publishing.  ((Link: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/200664283/scion-2nd-edition-tabletop-rpg/description)https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/200664283/scion-2nd-edition-tabletop-rpg/description)

[19:03] <+Neall> Scion is a game about gods, humanity, and everything in between. It’s a game about mythic deeds and the legends those deeds engender.

[19:03] <+Neall> The ancient powers never fully went away. They wander our modern roads and cities, mingling with the teeming masses of humanity. You are one of their children, born to the magic of yesterday and the promise of tomorrow.  Armed with weapons possessed of mighty powers, the Scions, divine offspring of both god and man, stand as humanity’s only defense against th

[19:03] <+Neall> savage Titans, dread forebears of the gods. Even the gods themselves cannot stand united, as ancient rivalries spring forth once more.

[19:03] <+Neall> What kind of God will you become?

[Q&A] Austin & Jenna MacKenzie (Valor)

[20:02] <+ValorAustin> Hey everyone, my name is Austin MacKenzie, I’m one of the original designers of Valor: the Heroic Tabletop System

[20:03] <+ValorAustin> It started off as a college project between my former college roommate and I, and morphed into a full-fledged system over the course of about 7 years and the expulsion of copious amounts of money from our bank accounts

[20:04] <+ValorAustin> In terms of the system, we designed Valor to be both highly cinematic and extremely flexible, it draws a lot of inspiration from Japanese Anime and Manga, especially the high-action shounen series such as Bleach, Dragon Ball Z, and Fullmetal Alchemist
