Last month, I submitted my entry for the One-Page RPG Jam 2025: The Wyrms That Turned (for those who aren't familiar with it, the name is a reference to the expression "Even a worm will turn").
I've fancied making a dragon-themed one-pager for a while, and I even mentioned it back in December as one of the themes I wanted to cover this year. When I saw that the theme of this year's game jam was "growth", I immediately thought of dragons growing with age, so I decided to make this one-pager a bit different by incorporating advancement rules (this also allowed me to show how combat encounters can scale as the PCs become more powerful).
I customized the trait descriptions to mention claws, bite, and breath weapons, and (much like Conniving Cat Burglars) I replaced "concept" with "breed". I also replaced "perk" with "affinity", and I drew inspiration from Savage Dragons for the quirks.
Overall, I'm pretty happy with this one-pager, and I was particularly proud of the terrible pun for the final adventure example -- "Happy Medium", where the dragons have to reach a mutually-beneficial compromise with a necromancer ;)
Hi Richard!
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of your work and Tricube Tales, and I have two questions:
- Can I help you to translate it into Spanish? (I'm spaniard)
- I would love a one page about samurais and far east theme ;)
Thank you!
Hi Tomás! Tricube Tales is released under the CC BY license, so you're allowed to translate it if you wish. However, someone has already translated it to Spanish and shared it on my Discord!
DeleteOne of the ideas on my TODO is a supernatural samurai setting that takes place at the same time as Wardens of the Weird West and Hunters of Victorian London. I think it would be fun for crossovers :)
Thank you Richard, could I join to your discord?
DeleteThat supernatural samurai setting sounds awesome!
Sure, there's a link to my Discord on the Tricube Tales product page, but here's the direct link: https://discord.gg/FRm9kQv
