Here's things I've written for Risus: The Anything RPG, created by S. John Ross, Copyright ©1993-2013,2021 by Dave LeCompte. Download Risus yourself here - it's a great, free tabletop RPG. All settings are copyright Dan Suptic. I would make it Daniel Suptic, but in the Risus community, I'm just 'Dan'.
Every day in the year 2020, I wrote a new Risus thing. Each month determined the genre, and the day of the week determined the specific thing I'm writing about.
I've taken on the admin duties of the new Risusiverse site (the premier fan site for Risus). That meant migrating all the old data, coming up with site layout, obtaining the domain name... all sorts of fun stuff. I'm pretty proud with how it all turned out.
Here's my personal favorite setting that I've done, a high magic fantasy world with a lot of little quirks. I've put a lot of work into this setting, and I hope to put a lot more into it in the future. It also has a separate character sheet PDF for easy printing.
A setting about music and the mayhem that follows musicians.
The successor to Risus Mariachi, featuring more humor and better writing. Fellow Risus guy Brent Wolke also did a nice spit shine and polish of this setting, putting it all in a fancy PDF file available here.
Martial arts and post-apocalyptic scavenging. Fun times!
A roguelike dungeon with Risus rules. Can you reach the lowest depths of the dungeon, retrieve the Worldstone, and make it back out alive?
A setting built on very little.
Or in other words, it's the Super-Happy-Go-Go-Fun-Time-All-World-Speedy-Good-Delivery-Service-Special-Force-Delta-Five. It's time travel. It's a delivery service in space. It's the weirdest thing I've ever written. Don't say I didn't warn you.
When the simple 4 pages of Risus just aren't enough.
A little article for GMs, giving them options for boosting their baddies for more interesting Risus combat. David Stahler Jr. arranged it all in a nice print-friendly PDF available here.
This optional rule replaces the random Character Advancement rules of the Risus core system with the classic and familiar system of experience points.
Here's my entry for the Risus community's One-Page Adventure Challenge for July. File available in the attachment section on this page as a PDF.
Brent Wolke hosted a One-Page Steampunk Setting Challenge, and this silly little 'GM'-less PvP setting is my entry.
Brent Newhall gave a One-Page challenge to create a high magic, non-medieval fantasy setting, and this is my submission.
Written for the 2021 Risus setting jam, Equipment List is just that - a Risus setting made from nothing but its equipment list.
Another minimal implied setting, Character Creation is a set of character creations rules and 4 sample characters from their setting.
My personal set of Risus dice
These dice would be great for Risus
These would work nicely too
