Maid: The Role Playing Game... - Morganite - 09-15-2008
... is out in english.
Looks like it's a pretty decent system for doing something completely silly. (Though I'm declaring a house rule of "If an attribute is at 0, act
like it's at 1 for purposes of action resolution." Because if I wanted to see dice getting *not* rolled, I'd play Amber.) It does seem like there
might be a bit too much potential for cascade failure sometimes though.
There's a variety of references here and there, many of which have little to do with maids at all. (Like one item which I'm certain is a reference to
the Angel Arms from Trigun.) So if you're a person like me who's into references, it's fun that way. And it's filled with perversion as well!
Edit: And in case you were wondering, someone was a total dick and posted the pdf online. Not much of a surprise, yes?

... What exactly *is* this thing for anyway?
... Maybe putting it on the mop will work...

Oh, I have got to get a copy of that. I doubt I'll ever actually play it, but I've got to get a copy anyway...

Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever play *any* RPGs again; it seems to be difficult to find people with a compatible sense of humor around here.
I'd kind of like to give this a try sometime though, even though there's a number of things that I think could use some modification. (Being half-naked
making everything impossible is not reasonable IMO. Increase the penalties, but apply them after the multiplication step perhaps? Oh, and if you gain 2d6 favor
for being seduced, it ought to say so somewhere other than in the example... but I can't find it. While we're at it, most rules leading to characters
being removed from the game will be removed from the game.)
-Morgan. School Swimsuit + Apron allows doing housework, right?

Ah, Maid. One of those games that can't really be played by post. Believe me, I've tried.
For fun, here's a character generator: http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/maidrpg.html
Let's see what I get...
[table]
name is Green Lantern Nanoha. You are 11 years old. You have blue eyes
and brown hair, and wear a green uniform. You are sexy and boyish;
others describe you as wild, coquettish and a tomboy.
You
practice Eastern-style magic based on Taoist principles using jufu,
special curse charms written in brush ink on strips of paper. You are a
member of an eccentric cult. You are a being from a world beyond this
mortal coil, charged with judging good and evil. Your body is covered
with stitching scars. You wear glasses; you can't use contact lenses,
but at least they compliment your maid uniform.
Following your
one-sided love of the master, you have come here. In combat, you are
able to summon some kind of special being to attack your enemies. When
you are extremely upset, you gorge yourself on food. Due to your
notable Athletics, you have the ability Ultimate Retort; You can blow
off any opponent completely by delivering a good retort (GM decides).
You can make it impossible to defend against this by taking 2 Stress.
(This must be roleplayed.)
