Hand of Odd - like RPG
Heya!
Well, this is my first RPG here on Oddworld Forums, and so this may not be as good as some others, but I just got this little idea to do a sort of early version of Hand of Odd for everyone here on the forums.
The rules are pretty similar to what you may or may not have heard:
You can choose between being Mudokon, Gabbit, Slig, Glukkon, or Vykker. Assume that Gabbits are not an endangered species.
As a Mudokon, you want to preserve the land, and make it as clean and wonderful as possible. Plant trees, herd/breed native animals, etc. etc. Also, by collecting Spooce, you can upgrade yourself to diffrent statuses as a mudokon. Try to become a wise shaman, or a brave mudarcher!
Gabbits will try and befriend the other species by any means possible. They can work for Glukkons or Vykkers for moolah or help with Mudokons to freshen up the land.
Sligs, when unemployed, can do what they want to either help or harm the Mudokon/Gabbit efforts. Note that unemployed Sligs have no pants or weapons, and CANNOT obtain them without working for Gluks or Vykkers. If a slig is employed, he wil earn moolah, with which he can buy more weapons or work up to Big Bro Status. Being a Big Bro means you can damage more of the environment, if you so choose. Big Bros can demand raises from their emploers.
Glukkons can do nothing on their own except hire sligs. They always start at Pud status (in the RPG) and have only 10,000 moolah. You must use sligs to help you build factories or what not.
Your goal is to become a Glockstar, with at least 2 million moolah.
Vykkers have a fun job: get in peoples way and perform experiments to make new equipment for other members (namely, Sligs and Gluks) to use. As a Vykker, you can demand any price you want for your equipment.
You are allowed to have up to 3 characters. I will add details to the territory once I have one of each species.
I welcome any suggestions from anyone about anything for this RPG. Too complicated? Too much? Let me know. I'll fix this up pretty for anyone who makes a good suggestion.
next: profiles! (at last!)
Name: Pick one
Species: Choose one
Age: Obvious.
Description: Describe your character--mood, looks, whatever.
Tribe (Mudokon only): Choose a tribe and/or make your own. Make sure to include an animal to wroship (fuzzle, meech, etc)
Alignment (Gabbits only): Choose who you want to help, Muds or Gluks/Vykkes.
Nature or Industrial (Sligs): Well, who you gonna help?
Goal (Glukkon): Choose a goal to achieve (other than GLockstar status, that comes with the territory).
Okay, finally: please, please, please use appropriate grammar and spelling (no "omg lol u crazy!" spell it out like you're supposed to). I'm not too picky with your writings.
All done. Good luck!
