GM Age’s Game Runner Profile- https://www.indecisionist.com/ttrpg-pickup-con-game-runners/gm-age

No copy of the rules, but character creation is simple: pick an animal that's been uplifted, pick a human society they've copied badly, split 5 points between Faith and Truth. Truth grants secrets of the setting and minor extra rules. Faith works as a pool of points you spend to influence NPCs. You'll roll percentage dice and take consequences after the roll to reach target numbers. There's a GM.

A diverse group of mutant talking animals who live in Humanity-worshipping high-tech domes meet each other when they uncover the heretical secret maintenance tunnels that connect the vastly different societies to one another. What will they do when they discover the true danger that threatens this entire futuristic zoo?

This game will be great ig you like light-hearted takes on dystopian futures, characters from different "Hollywood History" societies bumping heads, exploring futuristic ruins, unlocking dystopian secrets, rules-lite games, minor hidden rules, and succeeding at a cost.

We will build characters in the session.

Get caught up in the lucrative (and highly illegal) Los Angeles street racing circuit and win big! Also, you're a bunch of raccoons. Driving the same car. While you may not ascribe intrinsic value to the "paper" that humans call money, it's certainly useful for getting things you want from them. And a local human happens to be selling off their junkyard full of valuable garbage for a fee that only an illegal street racing raccoon could hope to afford.

This game will be great if you like Wacky Races, animals acting like people, making Los Angeles even more dangerous for pedestrians, and general lighthearted chaos
