Tales from the Floating Vagabond
A comedic science-fiction roleplaying game begins each adventure in The Floating Vagabond, an outer-space bar run by the gamemaster as bartender. Players create characters from races such as humans, elves, Dogmen, and Disgustingly Cute Furry Things, then choose unusual skills including “Look Good at All Times” and “Projectile Vomiting.” Dangerous drinks may contain toxic substances, even a singularity. The flexible rules support characters, races, and superheroes from any genre, era, or world.
