concept: an austen-inspired tabletop rpg where there are five classes

  1. single man in possession of a large fortune who is in want of a wife
  2. young woman with low connections who must marry so that she can secure her future
  3. cad whose main goal is to convince someone to elope with him
  4. wealthy, scheming woman whose goal is to ruin the happiness of the aforementioned young woman
  5. tiresome & vulgar elderly busybody (can be either a man or a woman)

I’m gonna split this out a little farther, because I feel like we’re blurring the lines between classes and stats. First you should pick your Austen class:

  • Bachelor/Bachelorette
  • Cad / Floozy
  • Husband/Wife
  • Matriarch/Patriarch
  • Busybody

Then you roll for your stats across the 6 basic Abilities:

  • Money
  • Intelligence
  • Connections
  • Manners
  • Looks
  • Snark

10/10 would kickstart

I’ve written this up as a quick-play version! You need a d6, a d20 and 3+ friends who are as into Jane Austen as you are, or at least willing to have a go.

Working title, Sense & Snark-ability.  

I’ll make it up into a proper printable with illustrations if I get a chance next week, but in the meantime if anyone wants to playtest it I’d love to know how it goes!

Someone play this with me omfg
