Keyword RPG is a setting-agnostic tabletop role-playing game system where player use Keywords to decide on the mechanical implications of their actions. It's still in development, but fully playable! The biggest changes will likely be in the graphic design department, and maybe the occasional word choice.

I don't really know how to write a description, but have some bullet points:

  • Keywords are a highly flexible set of bite-sized mechanics that mix and match to reflect and inspire character action!
  • Social and combat encounters use the same mechanics. Hack, slash, taunt and debate!
  • Most of character creation happens in play, so every character grows organically!
  • The system heavily lends itself to low/no-prep improv; jump into play quickly and explore the space together!
  • Item tables and a bestiary to pull from and inspire!
  • Easy to mod and house rule!
  • Bonus card game version of the rules for the real freaks out there!


If you want the bleeding-edge, latest version of the system, check out the Google Doc here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1iMwjQlbvbu5TKYet2zAYyfYTh0fJNHnegBCuSQaoZC0/

Comments and feedback appreciated, it's still a work in progress! Also, as much as I like the Spectral font, donations will go towards commissioning artists and designers to make the book look cooler.
