How to Make A Literal Cat in Your Favorite RPG

Joel Holland & Avalon Erwin

We hope you"re not here to learn character creation in new roleplaying systems, because here, we"re all about breaking rules to adapt the character creator to let us play as a basic, run-of-the-mill cat. We accept no cop-outs, we don"t acknowledge Homebrew materials, and we... very rarely come close to a pure and simple feline, but we do have fun along the way! Join us every other Wednesday to see what RPG we try to learn next! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

2024/05/15

Force and Destiny is the second of Fantasy Flight Games's cross-compatible Star Wars RPGs we've covered. This one focused primarily on the surviving Jedi in hiding in the aftermath of the Battle of Yavin. While it is the official stance of the Literal Cat Podcast and official Star Wars brand that Grey Jedi aren't real, they never said anything about making Grey Tabbies into Jedi, and we feel like that's basically the same thing.Follow the show online: https://literalcatpod.start.page/Follow Joel

Magonomia by Shewstone Publishing is a Fate-based RPG of wizards in Renaissance-era Europe. The spells and skills included in the game are inspired by the actual notes and teachings of real scientists and charlatans of the era. We are kinda bastardizing this by saying a cat also did Alchemy in that setting, but in our defense, it was for the bit.
