LUMEN
A tabletop RPG system and toolkit for fast-paced, power-fantasy games inspired by looter shooters, hero shooters, and dungeon crawlers. It provides guidance for creating games built around powerful characters, quick dice rolls, and escalating abilities. The system uses no skill lists, focusing instead on how characters approach tasks. Fast combat and a repeatable gameplay loop support action-focused adventures, while commentary and design advice explain how to build and run games using the framework.
