A cinematic TTRPG about a "war in the stars" inspired by a deep love of old school action figures and of punching Nazis in the face.
REBEL SCUM tells the story of how scrappy, anti-fascist heroes can fight back against a government with unlimited power (including giant lasers and space magic). Inspired by a love for a certain line of 3 and 3/4 inch action figures, this is a fast paced, feel good, space opera of rebellion and adventure.
In this TTRPG, characters are all expressed as action figures, with their pertinent stats and abilities "on the back of the card." Choose your toy and get out into battle!
REBEL SCUM rewards you with Stars when you punch Nazis in the face, and you can use those Stars to take cinematic action (like bullseye a ratwomp, swing across a chasm, cut off a creeper’s arm in a bar).
There are five character aspects in REBEL SCUM: The Ronin, The Revolutionary, The Rogue, The Renegade, and The Robot. Each Aspect selects 3 classes that provide their skills and abilities, answer a leading question that puts them into the story, as well as selecting their role (which determines the die that they roll).
