Monday Blues, a small town in Eagleland
Nothing ever happens in Monday Blues, a small, dreary, suburban town in Eagleland. When the local gaming/cartoons/anime convention comes to town, it's about the only dang thing for the kids to do on a weekend! But that's when things start getting weird...
Erratic Tables, Cross Crossing Guards, Spirit Radios, War-Drobes, Seagulls.... what's happening to the world? And what can a ragtag group of kids do to save it?
Okay, what is this?
Welcome to EarthBound V, a game heavily inspired by EarthBound / the Mother series and run using the Valor tabletop game system. (Or possibly its variant, Valor Alter. That's still up in the air.)
The point is, you get to make a group of psychic kids (or dogs, or possibly teens) and go around the world, finding unique situations, defeating wild enemies, and saving the world from whatever the heck is going on.
What can you expect?
A lot of things! The power of hope and love. Weaponized nostalgia. Suburban nightmares. Mr. Saturn. Shopping trips. Adults being corrupted by capitalism. Free shipping. A guy with a flamethrower riding a motorcycle. A dog - possibly two dogs. An abandoned shopping mall. Card games. Powerful psychics. A message about friendship conquering all.
Does that sound fun?
If so, express some interest down below!

2. What's your plurk username? (Or other social media contact.)
3. Character concept(s)? Two so far:
The Hiroshi: Very self-serious, very scientifically-minded teenager who also happens to have psychic powers he refuses to disclose due to the irrational nature of their existence. His attitude comes from a father who has a very similarly rigid view of the world he enforced on his son. Secretly reads a lot of books about cryptids.
The Papyrus: THE BIG ENTHUSIASTIC BIG BROTHER WHO LOVES EVERYBODY, INCLUDING HIMSELF. Kind of a jock, loves sappy movies, combination tank/physical skillset and buffer.
4. Anything you want to see in game?
5. What is your favorite movie, book, game, or TV show from childhood? Not good at citing favorites but I was big on Dragon Warrior games, Discworld novels, and the X-Files
