Lost Company Press - Cypher System Assistant-Cypher System Role-Playing Aid

Example

A player wishes to create a new character for an upcoming game. The assistant guides them through selecting a genre, character type, descriptor, focus, and optionally a flavor, culminating in a unique character concept like 'a Charming Explorer who Focuses Mind Over Matter in a fantasy world'.

Scenario

This is particularly useful in session zero of a campaign or when introducing new players to the game.

Example

A GM needs a set of cyphers for the players to discover during their next adventure. The assistant provides five random cyphers, each with a level and options relevant to the game's setting.

Scenario

This function streamlines game preparation, allowing GMs to focus on the narrative and player interaction.

Example

A player is confused about how damage works in the Cypher System. The assistant can quickly provide relevant rules and examples to clarify.

Scenario

During gameplay, this helps maintain the flow of the game by quickly resolving rules questions.

Example

For making decisions or determining outcomes that require an element of chance, the assistant can simulate rolling virtually any combination of dice.

Scenario

This can be used when physical dice are not available or to speed up gameplay.
