Another post here claimed 5e was too complicated. To that person, I can only say, you're welcome. These rules are extremely simple and always apply!

Ha, nice! Adding this to my collection.

Yandere, American (I assume this means either blonde or red white and blue), 5, named Gun Bunny. Personal defense weapon is a Carl Gustav 84mm recoilless rifle, unless the GM allows an M28 Davy Crocket (literally a nuclear bazooka).

It took me about five seconds to create this character, and now I kind of want to actually play the game.

"American" hair color means your hair is an animated gif of the american flag blowing in the wind (regardless of actual weather conditions), which is somehow fully visible from any angle. You also have a bald eagle nesting in that hair. The eagle dual wields AK-47s.

Much as I suspected. I'll be taking that one. The eagle will be named Cullum, which was Alvin York's middle name, for an obligatory obscure reference.

I'd allow the Davy Crockett, but Gun Bunny will be actively hunted.

Have you thought about a Hind-D for transport?

Bring on the hunters. GeeBee has unhealthy emotional attachment issues, a roll target of 5, and a bandolier of man portable nuclear warheads. In situations requiring stealth or close combat the Davy Crockett weighs a hundred pounds unloaded and would make a very effective bludgeoning device (as an anime girl she is of course strong enough to wield it as such). Or she could always just decide "f- it" and go out in a blaze of glory because nukes. Basically she embodies as personality traits all the ideologies of a circa 1960 Cold War superpower that would motivate them to invent a man portable nuclear weapon with a blast radius greater than it's maximum range.

Also I think my hair would get me the connections to requisition a Blackhawk.

Well, I think we can make the Blackhawk work.

It makes just about as much sense in the Russian rainforest.

Sounds like the perfect gateway to Maid RPG!

Unironically a better system to play Shadowrun than Shadowrun

This is the most “I want to play it now” Lasers & Feelings hack I've ever seen!

One thing though, what does the hair colour contribute? In L&F hacks, you generally have two different descriptors that could help with rolls, for instance one about your personality (a flirtatious character probably flirts better) and one about your capabilities (a soldier probably shoots better)

How... How does hair colour contribute to a roll?
“Does sempai notice me?”
“Your hair is blue... Take -1 to that roll”

"... because half the class has blue hair."

Of course it matters. Hair color is a core part of an anime girl's personality!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

I suppose... Like really, yellow haired anime characters tend to be feisty while white haired anime characters tend to have some mysterious past.

Hm, another thing I noticed is that L&F and its hacks use their RPG name as the critical success, which I like a lot
If I get my friends to play this with me, I'll rename “KAWAII OPERATIONS” to “WAIFU TACTICS”

Either way, funny AF L&F hack!
