Inspired by this game: Naka-Kon Forums • View topic - A toaster is you.
Welcome! Thought I'd try something a little different. In this RP, you play as a toaster, a humble kitchen appliance fighting to survive in a world of sandwich presses, coffee makers, and bumbling humans!
Mechanics:
Rules:
-No godmodding.
-No tennising.
-Keep romance PG-13.
Form:
Model Name:
Appearance:
*Slots: (Starting number is one)
*Cord Length: (Starts at two feet)
*Manipulator Strength: (Toasters start out able to manipulate only toast-related items.
*Upgrades: (The toaster can start out with one that costs one upgrade point. All toasters start with Brave Little Toaster.)
*Skills: (Skills will be gained throughout the RP.)
*Fields marked with an asterisk will be modified throughout the RP.
Upgrades: (Cost-Name-Effect)
*Start-Brave Little Toaster-Allows basic movement. The user cannot travel outside their cord's radius.
*1-Dual Slot-The toaster has two slots instead of one.
*1-Bagel Slot-The toaster can now toast larger objects, such as bagels and toaster pastries.
*1-Tin Plating-Increases resistance to damage from physical trauma, such as being dropped or shot by 25%. Starting trauma resistance is 10%. Can be taken multiple times.
*1-Extended Cord-+2 to cord length. Can be taken multiple times.
*2-Waterproofing-The user is resistant against water, and so has a +25% chance to resist water damage. (Normal toasters only have a 10% chance.) This can be taken multiple times.
*4-Wheels-Improves movement rate.
*4-Multislot-The user now has 4 slots.
*4-Battery Pack-Allows the user to operate for a limited time unplugged.
*4-Advanced Manipulators-User can manipulate breakfast-related objects (Eggs, cereal, plates)
New upgrades can and will be added, and I'm totally open to suggestions!

Mechanics:
This RP is different, apart from the premise, in that numbers will play a large part. Each round, a user can toast a number of items equal to their slots. Each toasted item grants a certain amount of experience, though it takes a certain amount of time. The GM or Co-GM will use a random number generator to decide success. The toasters will also have to fight sandwich presses and other obstacles if they want to survive!
Rolling: This RP will use a D20-esque system. For each action with a substantial chance of failure, a number from 1-20 will be rolled. Each challenge has a difficulty rank. For example, lets say a toaster wanted to toast a piece of whole-grain bread. This would have a difficulty of 5, vs. the toasters toasting skill of 1. Thus, the toaster would need to get a four or higher. The higher the roll, the better they toasted it, and the more upgrade points the user gets.
