The X of Loathing series is fantastic. Another stat that comes to mind is Hornswogglin’

chutzpah wouldn’t work, the less you have the more powerful you get

Oh shit i didn’t know it was a whole series

love this series so much

Yeah, it started with Kingdom of Loathing, which is a free to play browser game, and more recently Shadows over Loathing, which has this cool 1920s Lovecraftian setting. All keep that great humor

Just rework gumshoe

Made me think about Dimension 20’s Mentopolis. All of these would be characters instead of stats though.

I think chutzpe and moxie used to be stats in Paranoia

Nice. If they ever do another season of Mentopolis, I hope they get Hank Green to play "The Fix"s younger brother “Childlike Wonder”.

“Provincial dad” class features include:

• Bulk discount store membership.
• May name a “preferred grill out spot”. Gains advantage on movement rolls anytime their turn would end at their “preferred grill out spot”. Players who use this ability successfully must then move to their preferred grill out spot, or make a Willl save DC 14 vs 1d4 psychic damage.
• Elemental Resistance 5 (all elements) when operating any lawn or garden care implement.
• Resistant to poison (advantage on save rolls) in any food or drink that they believe to be “hand-crafted” or “locally sourced”

I know it’s a joke, but: a really small sail.

Shush, Gob.

Surviving any situation would be based on coolness, dopeness, freshness, smartbrain, and dancing ability.

Um, achtually, Hornswagglin’ is a skill and not a stat B^P

This reminds me of HOL (Human Occupied Landfill), which I’ve read about but haven’t played.

Anyway, it has stats like Meat, Feet, and Mouth, and skills like “That Psycho Bruce Lee Shit”, “Pilot Starship and Chew Gum at the Same Time”, “Whining Until You Get What You Want”, and “Turn Radios Into Howitzers”.

Sounds like something on a spectrum between Call of Cthulu 1981 and West of Loathing.

Came to say this same thing, Call of Cthulhu 1981 is a blast, the most fun I’ve had with a TTRPG.

This sounds like a modified Kids on Bikes system as seen in a few seasons of Dimension 20.

Thank you! My ex gf and I used to play a ton of Kingdom. I knew about “West of Loathing”, but this is the first time hearing about “Shadows Over Loathing”.

So. FATE?
