Blast Off Into the Unknown!
Heroes of the Cosmos is a minimalist, narrative-driven tabletop roleplaying system. It is designed with the space pulp action of yesteryear in mind, with exploration and adventure at the forefront.
Character Creation
Players choose an archetype, species, perk, and a quirk to create their characters. An archetype is made up of two parts. A trait (Agile, Brawny, or Crafty) and a basic concept (typically a profession). A species represents the general type of creature the character is. A perk represents a powerful skill, ability, or item the character possesses. A Quirk represents a drawback to the character like having a bad reputation or being cruel.
System
Players roll between 1-3 six sided dice depending on their archetype. They need one of the dice to roll between 4-6 (depending on the difficulty of the task at hand). Perks make the challenge easier while Quirks make it more difficult. Players can spend Heroism to use their Perks, and gain heroism back by using their Quirks.
This Game Also Includes
