Odd Knaves & Travelers

Hackity Hack Folks!

Starting the journey into Corny Gron our table wanted rules somewhere between Into the Odd and OSE / Knave, both played weekly for two years. They wanted a roll to hit (Rolling High!) and saves against stats (Low!), light & quick advancement, a scattering of mechanical skill effects, but flexible open ended skills, spells,and special powers.  The Odd Knaves rules pamphlet & character sheet is what we used.

I pulled in Craftwork and Faecraft and pushed the three systems together until the extra bits squeezed out from between my tight knuckles. So here we are, quick to the table with enough juice for a dozen sessions or around five adventures, whichever comes first.

With a renewed interest in Dungeon Delving, there is a second Character Sheet with more Dungeon oriented Crafts & Powers. 

Space adventures! WHAT? With a character sheet and a slightly modified Rules Pamphlet this  nods back to 70's grandparent Traveller in the feels, and reflects a future tech rooted in our current tech and a quick life path system to generate more robust characters.

The rules are in a pamphlet (one for Space, one for Fantasy), but you can get 56% of them from the Character sheets. There is the original Corny Gron Folktale  flavor and a Dungeon Delver flavor with some new Crafts and skills. Then there is the Odd Traveler Character sheet and Rules Pamphlet.

All are super flexible: switch out skills, crafts, and or powers and replace them with others that fit your setting, world, and vibe. It seems to scratch a number of itches, tick the requisite boxes, and tickle our fancies. Let me know what you think or if you need support!

Design Notes

If you could use a more accessible version, let me know. There is an illustration on the cover of the pamphlet of some medievaly dudes pushing through a wood up a mountainside and a half moon on the cover of Odd Traveler, but it is immaterial to the contents.
