Have you ever wondered what bounty hunters do when the galaxy no longer needs them? In this game called A Complicated Profession, they start new careers hosting intergalactic cruises! Reunite your disbanded crew of jaded sidekicks, shabby droids and shady accomplices. Then pick a hosting role on your cruise ship and start a new life together! Gradually leave more of your old Hunter self behind and embrace your new role as Host, although the past will always be a part of who you are. We'll play 1 to 3 cruises, depending on the play speed of the group, each cruise featuring different passengers and three different exciting events.

A Complicated Profession is a GMless collaborative storytelling TTRPG. Players will start by picking a Hunter and Host role from a variety of templates, then go through a mad-libs style fill-in-the-blanks process to create their characters, ship and galaxy. Maybe you used to be the Hotspot Pilot or the Hired Muscle? Well, no more. How about becoming a Chef, the Live Entertainment or simply the Janitor in your new career? Once your crew settles into their new identity, it's time to find some clients and take them through various exciting events! From excursions to meddling in their love life, here you can do it all. 

This game will be great if you like collaborative storytelling, worldbuilding, space, cruises, and Saturday Morning cartoons.

This system is especially great for new players. The game runner is very familiar with this system.

The game runner will provide pre-generated characters to pick from.

You have just joined a new family of goblins and want to make yourselves useful. Clearly, the best way to do so is by running errands for your new community: Buying vegetables at the market or procuring the services of a local wizard to get your wise leader unstuck from his chamber pot. Sounds easy, right? Well, unfortunately, you've got to contend with a world built for folk much bigger and stronger than you. And on top of that, you're both easily distracted and full of energy! Clearly a winning combination! Pick from various entertaining Goblin types like the Rascal, the Rambler, the Nibbler or the Whiz-Wart. Play to see how things go wrong, complications mount, and these ordinary, everyday tasks spiral into hilarious (mis)adventures. This game will be great if you like PbtA, goblins, being tiny, creative problem solving, shenanigans. This system is especially great for new players. The game runner is very familiar with this system. The game runner will provide playbooks ahead of time, so you can customize your character.
