VIsceral

VIsceral is a new way to do freeform and ultralite roleplay. Gone are the days of "I attack with my sword" -stab your enemy in the throat! With VIsceral, players have unprecedented freedom to approach a situation, and the unique Challenge Dice system allows the GM to prescribe proportional mechanical weight to whatever course of action the player describes.

VIsceral is designed with the darker genres in mind. Grindhouse, dark fantasy, neo-noir, mythos, cyberpunk, etc. The freeform nature of the game means that it can be easily tailored to whatever genre or setting you want, but in the future I plan to update the game with optional rules modules to make this process easier.

All you need to play is a handful of d6, a trusted table of friends, the short two pages of rules, and some character sheets.

Content Warning: Because players are encouraged to describe actions in detail, there is less abstraction separating the player from the violence their character commits. This can be exciting, but also upsetting. Have a Session Zero to make sure everyone knows what they're getting into, and establish some safety tools like Lines & Veils, or the X-Card before play.
