Into the Heart of the Dragon Now in Dungeon World

I'm a huge fan of GURPS Dungeon Fantasy. I've become somewhat annoyed by the forums, but still like the game. In any case, I really want to play GURPS for a change. Pyramid 3/76 had an article called Living Rooms that made me really want to play a scenario in which a dragon attacks a village, and is so big, that the entire party is swallowed whole, and they land in a town called Gullet. Here are my needs for the game:

  • GMs need to be familiar with Pyramid 3/76 pp. 20-24. Since it is possible the entire game may center on being inside a living dragon.
  • I don't want to join an existing game of another scenario. Other scenarios are Off Topic.
  • I need to be able to use GURPS DF 1-11, DF 15, and DF 17. It is critical that the dragon be large enough to support modestly sized towns with structured guilds, and that sort of advancement is permitted.
  • I want to play a Dwarf Innkeeper (DF 10).


Things I'm ok with

  • When the party kills the dragon, wherever it lands becomes a new island/continent/mountain range. Also fine with the possibility of delving underneath it from there.
  • Possibly landing in a comparatively advanced TL area and not being quite prepared for it.
  • Parts of the dragons anatomy being composed of minerals and gemstones
  • Other players using whatever rules in the DF series is most appropriate to their characters.

Into the Heart of the Dragon GURPS DF

Upon Further Reflection, I would be OK with a Rage Barbarian from Denizens 1.

Into the Heart of the Dragon GURPS DF

So apparently it's been since July that I actually wanted to play GURPS. Like I literally no longer care about GURPS. I do find that the scenario is STILL enthralling though, and I still want to play a game set (at least at the start) within a dragon large enough to eat a town, and have civilizations living lodged in various internal organs.

Lately though, my preferences have been toward indie/kickstarter type systems. I think I could be persuaded into playing this scenario in Dungeon World. I'm making a Class for it called Brewmeister, and it would make my year if a GM would let me try it out.

Into the Heart of the Dragon GURPS DF

So, this isn't really an interest area of mine, but you might be REALLY interested in "Belly of the Beast". You should be able to find the draft rules and quickstart guide with a bit of googling. It's, essentially, a system tailor made to run games like this.

Into the Heart of the Dragon GURPS DF

Since I've been trying to plug that Dwarf Paladin in Dungeon World, I realized that's an option. So now I want to play what essentially amounts to a megadungeon in Dungeon World, using one of the following:

  • The dwarf paladin I mentioned in another GPIA thread
  • A Tavern Character that I originally posted in my blogspot
  • A Class Warfare character I've been trying to play for ages that is composed of Destroyer, Strongarm, and Wielder. The character wields the Dragontooth Spear, but she will have gotten it differently than in the other game where I attempted to play the character.
