Genius: The Transgression. Who wants?
#1
So, I was sent this earlier today. It's a fanon book for nWoD, and I've been wanting to try it out ever since I saw it. Anyone interested? Keeping this to 4-5 people, in any case. We can discuss settings and dates and times once the group is formed, but know that my schedule permits me to only run games after 12 noon ST, and before 7 PM ST (Except Tuesdays. Tuesdays are gonna be weird for me. So no games then), once August 20th rolls around, and classes start.

Post away!


EDIT: For a more concise definition than reading the entire book gives, here's a quote from its TVTropes page:

TVTropes Wrote:Genius: The Transgression is a fan Gameline for the New World Of Darkness setting created by the author/artist of webcomic The Water Phoenix King, Kyle Marquis (better known on RPG.Net as Moochava), detailing the adventures of Geniuses, Mad Scientists who can build impossible machines (called Wonders) thanks to their connection to the mysterious light of Inspiration. Drawing on every sci-fi and horror cliché out there, Genius justifies the setting, expands the tropes along their logical progression and links its themes to the real world. It will be instantly familiar to any fan of the genre.

As with any tabletop RPG, Genius is defined by its characters. Each character is a mad scientist of some stripe, with a Catalyst, which determines their overall archetype, and a Foundation, which determines their overall approach to mad science. Each of the five Catalysts is defined by certain emotions and mindsets, which in turn cause them to act out various mad scientist stereotypes that can be summed up in one of the stock mad scientist quotes.

Here's a link to that page, as well.

YES. Genius is one of the few WoD settings I really, really like. I'd totally be up for it if you ran something with it.
As someone wise once said, the important thing is never to be fearless or confident. Most people have more than enough trouble with both. The trick is to fake it, because if you learn to fake it properly, it's the same thing as actually having confidence.
