Stitcher is a turn based game. At the beginning of a new game, a Game Master (GM) sets the expectations for the game’s themes, tones, and setting. Players take turns describing the actions of their Playing Character (PC), while the GM reacts, directs entities, and narrates consequences. The GM can take extra turns to introduce a setting, or to narrate interludes, time skips, etc. In Stitcher, players have to “stitch” together narrative and game elements to assemble dice rolls that can be used to overcome obstacles. On top of that, optional Mods can be “stitched” to the core game to expand and customize it with additional rules. To play, only a good bunch of D6s and a way to take notes for the GM and players should be needed. I want the core rules to allow for an easy set up with your friends at the pub with just an app to throw dice and another to take notes. The base setup is casual and relies on the narration of the GM, but Mods can add crunch and depth to the system. Principles Easy to pick up, easy to hack and expand upon Setting agnostic, geared towards action and narrative Narrative and fun > rules, with good rolling dice dopamine Classless: characters can do what their equipment warrants, plus playstyle Simple D6 pools, with exploding dice Dual axis of interpretation: mixed successes and failures

Humanity is cursed, host to a roiling psychic sea barely understood or controlled, a phenomenon arising purely from the darkest portions of the human soul. While most humans are blissfully unaware of its presence, others are more sensitive. When it grows wild in these hosts, SINS appear, terrifying supernatural monsters that are anathema to reality itself. CAIN is the solution, the global supranational shadow organization dedicated solely to the hunting and execution of sins. It’s mission is clear, its purpose steadfast. Is there anything better than a good hunt? Just think, you’re all set to slaughter to your heart’s content. YOU are an exorcist, a powerful psychic soldier and tool of CAIN, honed and wielded for one purpose: WIPE OUT THE STAIN From Tom Bloom (Magnagothica Maleghast/Lancer RPG): a new narrative role playing game about playing psychic death soldiers hunting monstrosities made of human trauma. So it goes. Includes: *Rules for making exorcists, powerful psychic soldiers on a campaign of extermination. Nascent monstrosities themselves, they must struggle against the limits of their own expanding powers and bodies. *Rules for creating sins, psychic abominations created when their hosts’ latent psychic powers burst free of their body, spurred on by trauma and suffering. Unraveling the mysteries behind their birth and the tragic circumstances of their hosts can weaken them and be used as a weapon in the final confrontation, lending equal weight to investigation and combat. *Rules for running hunts: tense investigations that culminate in a climactic execution scene inside of the lair of the beast Character sheets and hunt sheets for easy organization *Over 150 pages of insanity, art, and stickers with an aesthetic inspired by lo-fi manga, visual collage, and barber beats album covers. Slash, and slash, and SLASH AWAY. UNTIL IT IS DONE. (Taken from the CAIN itch.io page)
