CONTOURS

Contours is a TTRPG with a guided template to quickly set up a game in any setting, genre and scope without prep work. Novice friendly, it uses simple rules, six-sided dice and a lot of improvisation.

1. Pitch a setting
2. Answer a dozen questions about it
3. Pick an archetypal character each
4. Set a short-term goal for the group

You’ll be ready to play in half an hour!

- Lets play a band of thieving squirrels!
- Where’s our headquarters? A hollow tree trunk.
-  I wanna play as the “Muscle”, a beefy squirrel.
- Our first goal could be… to make the headlines!

Written by Clément Domergue, Contours uses the Hopes & Dreams system ruleset from Fari RPGs René-Pier Deshaies-Gélinas. Find other games "Ignited by Hopes & Dreams" in this list.

This game is human made, no AI was used at any point during the development. Creativity needs to remain the domain of the living or the joy of humanity will turn to ash, art surrendered to machines a thousand time faster.
