The Operative.docx

This revised version seems to be play testing well…many thanks to Michael Sands and Felix Girke for their insightful comments and helpful advice.

Any additional feedback from the Tavern very much appreciated!

if anyone is willing to play test this in a group and report back I will try to write a “thank you” reward for you your group.

Greetings all.

Had my first crack at making a custom playbook based on a weird joke/request from a player. Its sort of an alternate take on the professional, someone a little higher up on the food chain than the typical boots-on-ground archetype that professional playbook references.

Just thought I’d share for any 30 Rock fans or for folks looking for a more hands-off, big picture, behinds the scenes kind of player option.

Let me know what yall think!

Now note, this is my first playbook so it may not be as great as any other playbook here.

So, it’s a superhero, like Batman, or, really, Kick-Ass. I try to put something new to the table when it came to playbooks, but I think I did a decent job.

If you have any questions about this archetype, or talk about what I need to improve on, feel free to do so. Download it and try it out yourselves.

This is my second serious attempt at a new Monster-of-the-Week play book “The Operative” a former covert monster hunting operative burned by his Bureau for mysterious reasons and hoping for payback. I would very much like the Roadhouse to review and would love play test feedback. I can tell you the feedback on my Gumshoe and play testing was the reason the revised version will hopefully be in the rules expansion. Play testing is really key to playbooks. I’m willing to write a short mystery for the Roadhouse dedicated and inspired by the gaming group with the best play test report or some other reward as per their desire.

A custom playbook; the Doomed.

A custom playbook; the Doomed.

A custom playbook; the Doomed. The red-shirt, the character that everyone knows is going to die. Will you be an epic martyr, or a throwaway character with little bearing on the overall story? Either way, your goal is probably to die! Or, perhaps your story is so compelling, it is a miracle when you finally are able to retire to safety! The first of a few custom playbooks. Hope you like it! Feedback is appreciated!

Tried my hand at making a few custom playbooks; here is the first one, The Eternal, based on the tragic immortal trope (think Dorian Gray, the Wandering Jew). Mechanically, the idea was to have a practically unkillable character with relatively weak Moves and a lot of drawbacks.

We just began playing MotW and we found out that the movement Smite from Divine makes useless the investigation for weakness. If your weapon always is considered to be the weakness, why do you need to investigate?? How are you fixing this bug in the game?
