Entry - Badass Presidents

by **Talath** » Mon May 25, 2009 2:47 am

I wasn't aware I had the ability to post a thread, elsewise I would have posted this weeks earlier.

Luckily, I documented the time I spent working on this RPG on the yahoo group.

I started my RPG called "Badass Presidents" on May 3rd at 9:32 pm, and I
finished on May 4th at 7:45 p.m. I felt I did a better job this time, and while the mechanics may be a bit wonky, hey, you got what you paid for. You can download the file here:

The topic I chose is Death Rides a White Pontiac Firebird.

Just to be clear, the topic doesn't really describe the game. Here's the best I can summarize:

You play super-powered American Presidents who fight cthonic space horrors, Evil Jesus, and reborn deities in a post-apocalyptic world.

It's like DBZ meets Lovecraft meets history class meets 24 hour RPG. Meets nuttiness.

I also have it available on lulu.com as a free download; it's slightly different than the one on rapidshare; I spruced it up after I finished it by formatting a bit and added an index, but it's the same game. I just want to make it clear which one is the original and which one is the spruced up version.

If you don't want to go through lulu, I can email it to you. Or recommend a different file provider, as I don't know of any.

I would have to argue that the term is "Cthonic" (Kith-on-ik) rather than cthulean, and point out that Lincoln was not born in 1861 (entered office maybe, but we didn't have a 3 year old as commander in cheif of the army of the potomic)

Otherwise, I'm in full agreement -it is an impressive idea for a setting. As a judge, I need to restrain my other thoughts untill the end of the contest.

How did you come up with the idea, and why did you choose "Death Rides a White Pontiac Firebird"?

Congrats talath. Sorry I can't say too much more either, being and judge and all.

How did you manage through the long periods of time? Did you have a way of keeping yourself awake?
