A Powered by the Apocalypse role playing game about super-powered anime high school students
HEY! Do you like role-playing games? Do you also like anime and all the fun and/or silly tropes that tend to come with it? Then you’ll probably like Super Destiny High School Rumble!!
“ Super Destiny High School Rumble!! is a role-playing game about anime high school students who have to balance secret identities, emerging powers, homework, and combating villains. This game is made for everyone who ever wanted to play their favorite anime types in a high school AU (or honestly, a lot of shonen and shoujo canon).
Players can choose from all the beloved tropes of the genre. Will you be the Delinquent, the Elite, the Adorable, the Rep? Pick from ten social roles to form your character's day-to-day life. No one, though, is just their role. Everyone has a larger and more fraught destiny. Are you a Night Hunter, a Creature Summoner, an Alchemical Witch, a Secret Monster? Ten destiny playbooks await. ”
I don’t make a lot of personal posts on tumblr, but this is a project created by my friends over at The Five Wits, and at the end of last year they hired me to illustrate the book for them! I’ve also done play-testing with them and it’s not only easy to learn, but also offers a lot of freedom for players to stretch their imaginations. Students (players) work together with the Principal (DM) to create the world and their place within it! Plus, y’know… anime super powers. Hell yeah.
They’re about halfway through the Kickstarter as I’m writing this post, so if you’re interested go have a look at their full pitch, along with their stretch goals and rewards!
