EarthBound V
The year is 202X
Monday Blues, a small town in Eagleland
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?

3. Character concept(s)? A rebellious and cool punk psychic dog whose owners are in a weird cult. She wants none of that crap. Fights with a mixture of psionics and sick skateboard stunts. You ever wanted a skateboarding dog? You got it now.
4. Anything you want to see in game? A weird dream-like sequence. A spooky sequence. Something involving space?
5. What is your favorite movie, book, game, or TV show from childhood? The Darkangel Trilogy books. The first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon (the one that started in 1987).
