Seeking PbtA DBZ

Hello! A couple of us players have been looking at a Powered by the Apocalypse game currently in development called Dragon Ball Parallels. It's DBZ themed, naturally, and currently in the playtest stage. Neither of us is in a position to run it at the moment, but we would certainly like to see it in action in preparation for perhaps running it myself later on. The game is here:

https://docs.google.com/docume...Hs4/edit?usp=sharing

We're looking for a GM who is reasonably familiar with both PbtA games and the narrative flow of Dragon Ball. I have a number of potential characters in mind, though it might be best to have players join and discuss characters together. PbtA games work best that way.

Color me interested! What era of Dragonball are you aiming towards? Beginning Dragonball, DBZ, or Dragonball Super?

The Dragon Ball Parallels system looks to be set up with DBZ in mind, with each playbook being a different species, and one of the Earthling's choices being to decide what Memento from your adventures you have. I think that makes a great jumping off point!

Holy yes!  Please let me know if this gets off the ground!  Wish I had the time to run it, but I would definitely join in!

I just watched through Dragon Ball Z Abridged and I would love to play in this.  I do not have time to run it sadly...

./~ I would walk five hundred miles ./~

to find a GM for a Dragon Ball Parallels game. :D

Probably not five hundred more, though. That's a lot of miles.

Still trying to find someone willing to lord ultimate power over a bunch of weaklings who then punch him with the Power of Friendship. And punches.

Yes indeed! Asking as a potential fellow player or as a potential GM? I'd be happy to see either, but honestly happier to see the latter. :P

I would be interested in playing.

 I was also thinking today that the dragonball parallels system could work for something more generic and for other settings where there is a lot of blasting and fighting. The fusion thing is pretty common in alot of anime and cartoons like steven universe. I think some sort of genetic fighting evil guys and fusing with the power of friendship would be really fun and not require a lot of background information like dbz might.

WinterRanger, is there anything you need before being ready to get a game going?

Paradeaddiction, I wouldn't be surprised if it could handle a lot of other things, but right now the setting I'm set on for a game is Dragon Ball Z. I have a number of characters in mind specifically for that. I'm sure other players would be interested in experimenting with DBP, though.

Once more into the bump!

Still looking for a GM for Dragon Ball Parallels. Really excited to have seen two potential GMs for it in this thread, but both disappeared after expressing interest. So, anyone up for running this?

my only thought would be we may want to add some additional techniques for more generic move sets

I dunno. The techniques are pretty generic as they are, and I can't really think of a whole lot of things that would be missing. Also not sure if this forum's the right place to even discuss that, as it's pretty much just for "who's down to run the thing" "ya I'm down to run the thing". Are you down to run the thing?

I had just posted today in the Interest thread about running this game. I’ll post a link over there if there are still players here checking-in.
