SIXY
A downloadable game
Welcome young heroes,
Today is your Assignment Day,
the day you will receive your quest.
We know you are under a lot of
pressure to get a good quest,
but the fates can be mysterious.
Now step forward and
I shall read the bones.
WHAT IS SIXY?
SIXY is a fantasy roleplaying game for 3-6 players with a focus on questing. You play young heroes about to receive their quest. This quest is their first step toward becoming an adult. Similar to getting into a good school or landing a great job. The characters are under a lot of pressure to get a good quest.
SIXY hopes to tell stories in the vein of Dragon Prince and Onward. Following a group of young hopefuls as they navigate an epic quest. Even if that quest doesn't start out as prestigious as the characters hoped.
THE RULES
SIXY is built to be light and flexible to get you playing right away. Characters are made of labels that add to your dice pool when they suit your actions. Meaning you can play any concept from standard fantasy classes like Fighter, Thief, or Wizard to Pixie Sparrow Knights and Blink Dog Walkers.
Along with your dice pool you'll be rolling a d20 to act as the die of fate. The fates are fickle and so are d20s so they make the perfect pair. The die of fate can earn you both positive and negative side effects to your actions along with giving you the chance to CRIT on a 20!
Created for the 6e Jam, SIXY Borrows from traditional fantasy games, while poking a little fun at them in the process.

Why didn't I find this game sooner? Love it! Seriously.
How do injuries work for a starting character with one "Injured" box? Say the player wants to wade in like playing the famous RPG, like attacking an orc. The player loses the first round, checks "Injured" and is out if they lose the second round? The Die of Fate mitigates (or exacerbates), of course. Is that pretty much it?
Not complaining, because I don't care for protracted slug fests! I want to make sure I've read things correctly.
Also, I found a typo:
"... some consequence of fate’s meddling hinders you..."
Thanks for a nice little game.
I’m glad you like it!
You’ve got the injuries figured right, but characters can exhaust armor to avoid an injury. If armor doesn’t fit the concept try taking an items like rage or thick skin.
Also being taken out doesn’t have to be dead or even unconscious. It could mean they are cutoff, trapped or otherwise out of the scene.
One of the players will take the role of the Quest Giver
Updated the pdf. Thanks!
This is a neat game for Fantasy fans anywhere! easy to learn, fun to play, at a bargain price! suitable for kids!
