Fate CORE Accelerated (Intro to RPGs)
October 1st 12:00-18:00 FAB 1.08

Fate CORE is a story-building system with the players whose characters have a direct impact in the context of their own adventure.
This system uses primarily a version of d6's called 'fudge dice', marked with '+', '-' or blank. The group will create characters and their key features will also inform the world that the adventure is set in - whether it be a bunch of pirates, wizards, space rangers, or simply a group of people at a university. There will be challenges, events put in front for you to overcome…

In the city of Doskvol, everyone’s a criminal. Corrupt police, drug peddlers, violent mobs. And, most importantly, daring thieves. People who say, “Go on, one last job” twice a week, or those who are new to the game and eager to prove themselves, or those who do it to support their families, or because it’s too easy not to, or because it’s downright good fun. The list goes on and on. And here you are. Thrust into the underworld of a Victorian-esque city teeming with spirits and ghosts, tasked with stealing…

Saturday 1st October, 12-6pm FAB 2.31 (Faculty of Arts Building)

Goblins are diminutive, weak, stupid, unskilled, disobedient and prone to fatal accidents. You get to play as five of them!

In fact, we will be deciding this task at the start of the session, which is great because it allows you to decide what questionable adventures your troupe of goblins will get up to - be it infiltrating a bear …
