    Sadly, this one is not going to be VTT. I am giving some serious thought to an anime game for a VTT setting. I'll start asking all sorts of annoying questions when I get closer to that game.

    This one is going to be a one shot for Dundracon. Basically, all of the super heros/villains will have comical disfunctions. For example, 200 Proof is a master of flame but can only use his powers when he is drunk.

    Dude!! Dundracon?? That is just down the road from me. Well, actually it is an hour and a half, but I just may be there next year working a booth.

    What system is it? That sounds like a great bit of fun.

    Running it in GURPS. The name of the game is "Super Heroes Union Local 1337" if you want to view it on the Dundracon site

    l337 - great name. LOL

    GURPS - not my first choice for supers, but definitely doable. Thanks. I'll check it out and consider signing up if/when I get my confirmation that I'll be going.

    I did GURPS because it gave me alot of flexibility for odd ball characters, and because it is a system that I am fairly familiar with. Were I running a straight hero's game, I probably would have shopped around the systems a bit. Anytime I do anything "weird", though, I immediately turn to GURPS.

    What about GURPS makes it the first choice for "weird" for you?

    It's flexible and I'm familiar with it. It's been hard enough developing "dysfunctional" characters without learning a whole new system in the process. GURPS has always worked well for me. I'm running a stargate type game in the system right now, and am working on an anime style game in the system as well.

    I'm not going to argue that it is any better or worse than any other systems. It's just what I like
