This is a Tiny RPG

In 2022 I set myself the task to write  a rules light fast paced minimalistic role playing system that can be quick and simple to get to the table on 1 A5 sheet of paper. The referee with the players develops and crafts the structure of the experience. This system  can be whatever you want be it a 2-3 hour one shot or it can be a part of a longer campaign. I designed it to be beginner friendly and hopefully has enough crunch for seasoned role players. 

Fast forward to late 2025 and I have decided to develop this project further, as of version 2.3 I have expanded out to a 25 page A5 zine for the rulebook.

The core pillars of the "Tiny" ethos will always be:

1. Quick Character Creation: Roll a couple of dice, pick traits, and you’re ready to play in under five minutes.
2. Streamlined Dice System: Success or failure is determined by rolling a single die (d6, d8, or d12), with results ranging from dismal failure to fantastic success.
3. Stories as Currency: Completing objectives creates “stories” that can be traded for gossip, blessings, or leads at shrines and taverns.

I am working on developing other modules and expansions in time.

Note: This is a work in process. For that reason, it will develop over time with guidance from the community. I have decided to use itch funding for this instead of other platforms.
