Fudea

Adventures in McDonaldLand

The Game

Welcome to Fudea: a fantastical land inspired loosely by the McDonaldLand advertising campaign from the fast food chain McDonalds. Here you will go on grand adventures as real dumb shit. Fudea: Adventures in McDonaldLand is a hack of Dungeon World by Adam Koebel and Sage LaTorra. The game follows similar mechanics with actions being ascribed to “moves” which are resolved by rolling two 6-sided dice. This is a game of collaborative world building and narrative. Rules and mechanics should take a backseat to telling a fun and interesting story.

The Players

This game needs at least 3 players: one General Manager, or GM, who runs the campaign, and two players to act as characters. This system is optimized for 5-6 but can be played with greater or lesser numbers.

The GM

The General Manager (here on out referred to as the GM), is the person who runs the show-- sort of. This is a game that shines when the GM and the players are working together to build the story. As the GM your job is to provide interesting hooks but leave blanks to be explored together. It is your job to interpret your players’ actions into the appropriate corresponding moves. It is also up to you to protect the integrity of the narrative and decide when moves are appropriate.

Narrative is King

It is also up to you to protect the integrity of the narrative.

Example: Don't let your player roll to jump a 40 foot chasm with a broken leg-- unless you (or they) can narratively justify what a success looks like. Conversely, if it's an established trait that your character is a skilled climber and they want to climb a low wall covered in vines, there probably does not need to be a roll made for that.

Note to GM: I’d suggest taking some time to read through what the Dungeon World handbook has to say for GMing. I’ve made this booklet mostly for myself and have skipped a lot of extra detail and tools that the original work provides you.

The Dice

Fudea runs on the Powered by the Apocalypse system, which means the majority of rolls will be resolved using two 6-sided die (2d6 for short). There are 3 main categories for resolving these rolls, listed as follows:

• Success: a Success is classified as a roll of 10 or above. In these cases the action the player is attempting exceeds as they planned, or perhaps with a little additional flair.
• Mixed: a Mixed (or Mixed Success) is classified as a roll between 7-9. In these cases, the player will usually be able to complete the action, but at a cost. An increase in danger or having to give something up or taking damage. It is up to you to provide the unsavory choices for your players to pick.
• Failure: a Failure is classified as a roll of 6 or below. In these cases the action the player attempted fails, and the GM is encouraged to take a concrete action against the player, such as reinforcements arriving.

Example

Jericho attempts to fire at the guard with his Flavor Blaster. The GM determines this is a Brule roll. Jericho rolls 2d6 plus his Sour (Sr) modifier, and gets a 9. The GM offers Jericho a choice: You took several shots, and have expended all your ammo, you will have to reload next turn, or you had to reposition to get a clear shot, and now you are out of position and in danger of being surrounded.

The World

The world of Fudea is kept purposefully vague, you and your players should be creating your own unique take on it together! But some “base” material has been provided as a launching point.

• Fudea: This is the continent itself. At the time of this campaign, we are at a point of great change, as the kingdoms within begin to undergo an industrial revolution. I don’t care how economically improbable it is to go directly from feudalism to industry. It’s make believe.

• McDonaldLand: This is one of the oldest and largest kingdoms on Fudea. Founded by the Aguni-Frai Ronald McDonald. McDonaldLand can also refer to the capitol city. The surrounding area is mostly farmland and the borders are not strictly enforced, except along the Creme River.

• The Burger Kingdom: This is the other main kingdom in Fudea. Smaller, they have long looked enviously at their prosperous neighbor.

• The Alliance of Five: A free city-state in the mountains, an alliance of 5 warlords to resist the imperial powers of the other two powerful kingdoms.

• Neuhame: The “human capital,” this is a city founded by humans and primarily populated by them.

• Johnstown: Sometimes known as “pirate town,” this is a thriving coastal trading port off the Silver Coast.

• The Valley of Wind: A desert valley where sandstorms rage constantly. It is said that somewhere within resides the Windy Witch, a powerful sorceress.

• The Cold Shores: The kingdom of the dead. See: Religions.

Attributes

Every player-character in Fudea is defined by a set of stats that inform their abilities. If you have played any RPGs or other tabletops, you are familiar with the concept, although this time its incomprehensible food-related stuff because I'm a fucking idiot.

• Freshness: How fresh your ingredients are. When you are out of Freshness, your character will expire.

• Savory (Svy): Rich, deep flavor that punches the tastebuds.

• Sour (Sr): Agile, sharp flavor that makes the tongue want to get out of the way.

• Bitter (Btr): A harsh body of flavor that resists the palate.

• Salty (Slt): An essential flavor that brings forth others.

• Sweet (Swt): A charming flavor that makes friends

Understanding Abbreviations

Attributes can be referred to as their full name (Savory) or an abbrevation (Svy). When an attribute is referred to by its abbrevation it is referring to the modifier that attribute provides. When it uses the full name, it is referring to the actual number that attribute has.

Example: To calculate max Freshness, you add +Btr, which means you only add the modifier of your Bitter attribute.

---

There is one additional attribute called Flavor, which functions differently from others. Flavor is representative of your relationships with others in the world. You start with 1 Flavor for each other player in your party, and can earn more as the game progresses. This is essentially a reward system that allows the GM to reward players for good roleplaying moments. Once Flavor is earned, there is no specificty to how it is spent (ie, a Flavor earned by good roleplaying with Rachel can then be spent on an interaction with Marco, even though it was not earned with him. For more on how Flavor is spent, see Basic Moves.

Religion

Here are some building blocks for religious systems and deities within Fudea. Feel free to come up with your own.

---

The Cold Shores: The afterlife is a real, physical place. The frozen kingdom of the dead is ruled by the Blizzard Queen in the far north. It is inaccessible to the living. All major faiths agree, however, that this is merely a holding zone, a limbo where one sits as their soul is judged. Agents of the Blizzard Queen lead you there when you die, and she guides you to where you belong after.

---

Goldenism: Largely, a religion followed by the Frai, the basic philosophy involves placing the community first. Those that serve the community well are rewarded in the afterlife by having their soul transported to the Golden Sea, looked over by the Friar, a paradise where Frais achieve their true Platonic selves. Frais that damage their community or have no community are destined to the Stale, where they will be chewed on for eternity by the Great Consumer. There are many denominations of Goldenism that can differ wildly in their practices and philosophies, although they are all united by their belief in the Gold Sea and the Stale.

---

Nestanism: a belief system originating in the Byrd cultures, Nestanu believe that everything was formed by the god-creator, Eyr. A soul is reborn endlessly, until the good they have imparted on the world has outweighed the bad, at which point they can finally leave the Nest (the physical world) and ascend into the Blue Sky, to become a god-creator in their own right and form a new universe. They believe those born into Byrd bodies are the most blessed, the most enlightened souls who are very close to leaving the Nest. They view others with a sort of kind pity.

---

Grimmanism: A philosophy created by the first Grimace. Life has no intrinsic value and there is no heaven waiting for you in death. All that you can do you must do in this moment. You must create your own purpose and find your own value in this world, everyone has an angle and something they want from you.

---

Pieceanity: A faith unique to the Nuggen. They believe there used to be a great God, Big Nuggen, and that Big Nuggen broke their body into pieces to create the first of the Nuggen. Thus, all Nuggen carry within them the “internal divine” and all Nuggen are kin to another. There are strict familial hierarchies and the Nuggen practice ancestor worship. Those who are not Nuggen are ultimately not even real, simply soulless constructs that wander the world according to a predetermined script.

---

Portalism: A minority human religious sect, they believe that some sort of divine figure colloquially referred to as the Portal Maker or Portal Keeper, sent humans here from another place thousands of years ago, although for what reason is hotly debated among Portalites.

---

The Herbs and Spices: An occult belief that the world is made of and powered by secret, unknowable herbs and spices which give the world it's flavor.

Races

There are six major races in Fudea, and they are as follows.

Humans

Humans are one of the “young races,” relatively new additions to Fudea, having only appeared a few thousand years ago. They have quickly adapted however and while they are looked down on by some of the older races, their ingenuity and bravery are not to be underestimated.

---

Average height: 5’9

---

Bonus: Start with an additional class move.

Grimace

The Grimace are an artificial race created a scant 200 years ago. Developed by the Scientific Autonomous Democracy, a secret society within McDonaldLand devoted to the furthering of science at any cost, these strange bulbous furry creatures have immense strength and power. They are rare to see now, due to low birth rates, short life spans (~40 years), and a relentless purging of their species that only stopped after they earned their sovereignty as free people during the Grimace Wars 80 years ago. They are still wary of other races and tend to keep to themselves. Grimace are agender. They come in the following sub-categories: Purple, Blue, Green, Red, and Yellow.

---

Average height: 5’5

---

Bonus: +10 max Freshness.

Frai

The Frai are one of the oldest races in Fudea. They are the most populous of the races, which has lead to a wide range of ways of life. There are many that take great pride in their long heritage on Foodia, but just as many who couldn’t care less. There are many types of Frai, such as Curly, Waffle, Garlic, Crinkle, Shoestring, Sweet Potato, Wedge, etc.

---

Average height: 5’0

---

Bonus: Start with 2 extra Flavor.

Byrd

Another of the young races, the Byrd are anthropomorphic bird people, who seem to have a knack for machines. There are various types of Byrds, such as Sparrow, Finch, Robin, Falcon, and Crow.

---

Average height: 5’5

---

Bonus: When you first enter an important location (your call), you can ask the GM one question about the history of the location.

Aguni

The Aguni are possibly the first race of Fudea, it is hard to say, their origins are shrouded in mystery. They are a symbiotic creature, capable of living for thousands of years, transferring from host to host, bringing experiences and skills each time but being subsumed into the new host’s personality. They are wide burger-shaped creatures that affix to the cranium of a creature, enveloping it completely. When they are joined with another, the combine the two names with the suffix “Mc” meaning “bonded to”. The Aguni Ronald founded McDonaldland while bonded with the Frai, Donald.

---

Bonus: When you use Nutritional Facts, treat Failures as Mixed. Choose between this and the bonus provided by your host body. You cannot have both.

Nuggen

Although they are one of the old races, they are often considered a “lesser” race by others. They generally eschew city life, preferring a nomadic scavenging lifestyle. Stereotyped as dumb, filthy, and thieves, they often face persecution when they come in contact with other races.

---

Average height: 4’5

---

Bonus: When you If You Can’t Take the Heat… and you use your small size to your advantage, take +1 forward to that roll.

---

Creating a Character

Creating your character is the first step to starting your adventure! Select a race and class, and begin to build your character's physical traits. How tall are they? Are they muscular, or skeletal, or fat? What kind of hair do they have? What kind of eyes? Cruel? Kind? Once you have a grasp on your character's physicality, the next step is to choose their Secret Ingredient, which will help build the foundations for your character's personality.

---

Assign the following scores to your attributes

---

16 (+2), 13 (+1), 12 (+0), 10(+0), 8 (-1)

---

Alternatively, you can roll 3d6 5 times to randomly generate attribute points.

Max Freshness and Class Skills

Your starting Max Freshness is determined by added a pre-determined number with your total Bitter (see Character Sheets for more detail). At level 1, you also choose a Class Skill, along with receiving several automatically.

Forward and Ongoing

Throughout moves and skills you will occasionally see bonuses or penalties marked +/- n Forward or +/- n Ongoing. Something that is Forward will lend that bonus/penalty to the next relevant roll, whereas something that is Ongoing will continue to provide that bonus/penalty until the conditions for ending are fulfilled.

Secret Ingredient

Secret Ingredients define an essential philosophy your character holds true. This trait should inform your roleplaying and decisions. If at some point you feel your character has narratively shifted or you find out that the trait you picked does not mesh with how you are playing, talk to your GM about switching ingredients.

• Kill a defenseless or surrendered enemy
• Avoid a conflict or defuse a tense situation
• Spur others to significant and unplanned action
• Endanger yourself to protect others
• Endanger yourself following the tenets of your faith
• Harm another to prove the superiority of your god
• Harm another to protect someone weaker than you
• Destroy a symbol of authority
• Help something or someone grow
• Defeat a worthy opponent
• Sacrifice someone or something to achieve a greater purpose
• Deny mercy to a criminal
• Free someone from literal or figurative bonds
• Protect something from the natural world
• Leap into danger without a plan
• Avoid detection or infiltrate a location
• Shift danger or blame from yourself to someone else
• Steal from the powerful, give to the needy
• Harm another to achieve profit
• Destroy a symbol or vessel of technology
• Make your own with the help of the GM!

Basic Moves

These are the basic moves available to all players. Per the tradition of Dungeon World, you as the player should not be calling out these moves. Instead, describe what it is you wish to accomplish. The GM should be able to determine which move best corresponds and tell you what you'll need to roll.

If You Can't Take the Heat...

When you act in the face of danger. Describe your actions and then roll:

• +Svy: If you are powering through
• +Sr: If you are getting out of the way or acting with speed
• +Btr: If you are withstanding the threat
• +Slt: If you are using your wits
• +Swt: If you are leveraging your words or social grace

---

On a Success, you perform the action. On a Mixed, you hesitate, falter, or flinch. The GM offers you a worse outcome, hard bargain, or ugly choice. On a Failure, the situation worsens and the GM makes a move against you.

Saute

When you make a melee attack on an enemy, roll +Svy:

• Success: You land the blow. Roll damage.
• Mixed: Choose to either miss, or deal your damage and receive a counter attack.
• Failure: Your attack misses and you are in a vulnerable position.

Brule

When you attack from a distance, roll +Sr:

• Success: You land the blow. Roll damage.
• Mixed: Choose one of the following:

---

• You have to move to get a clear shot, placing yourself in danger.
• You take what you can get, -1d6 damage.
• You unleash a barrage, depleting your ammo.

• Failure: You miss and are in a vulnerable position.

Mise En Place

When you closely study a situation, roll +Slt. On a Success, as the GM 3 of the following questions. On a Mixed, ask only 1. Take +1 forward when acting on the answers.

• What happened here recently?
• What is about to happen?
• What should I be on the lookout for?
• What here is useful or valuable to me?
• Who’s really in control here?
• What here is not what it appears to be?

Nutritional Facts

When you consult your collective knowledge on something, roll +Slt:

• Success: The GM will tell you something useful and interesting about the subject
• Mixed: The GM will tell you something interesting about the subject.

Order Up

When you have leverage on an NPC (something they need or want), and manipulate them, roll +Swt:

• Success: They will ask for something and do what you want for the promise of that
• Mixed: They’ll do it, but they need concrete assurances, right now.

Combo Value Meal

When you want to assist or interfere with another player’s roll, declare how many Flavor you want to add or subtract from that roll before the roll is made, then roll +Flavor (your total amount, not what you are wagering). Explain how you are adding or interfering.

• Success: You succeed in the action. Subtract the amount you wagered and modify the roll accordingly.
• Mixed: Either influence the roll, but pay double the amount of Flavor wagered, or do not influence the roll and retain the Flavor wagered.
• Failure: You do not influence the roll. Subtract the Flavor wagered.

Expiration Date

When your character’s Freshness reaches 0 or below, roll 2d6 with no modifiers:

• Success: Things are not as bad as they look, you are hurt, but not dead. Set your Freshness to 1.
• Mixed: Your spirit departs your body and you meet an agent of the Blizzard Queen. They will offer you a bargain. Accept it, and stabilize, or refuse and die, your soul guided to the Cold Shore.
• Failure: You are beyond saving. Your soul departs for the Cold Shore.

Dine In

When you stop to rest for an extended period of time, consume a ration. If you sleep for at least a few hours, heal up to half your maximum Freshness. Sleeping for a full night recovers full Freshness and will clear most debilitations.

Open 24/7

Applies when using Dine In. When you are on watch and a danger approaches your camp, roll +Slt:

• Success: You alert the camp and have time to prepare, the party takes +1 forward.
• Mixed: You manage to alert the camp, but only barely; everyone has their weapons and armor, but little else.
• Failure: You don’t see whatever is out there and they have the drop on you.

Drive Thru

When embarking on a journey through hostile territory, assign a party member as the Quartermaster, the Scout, and the Navigator (the same character cannot have two jobs). If a role is not assigned, treat it as if that role rolled a 6. Each assigned role will roll +Slt. On a Success:

• The Quartermaster reduces the number of rations needed for the journey by 1.
• The Scout manages to spot any trouble and you have the drop on that encounter.
• The Navigator finds a faster route and the travel time is reduced (the GM will say by how much).

---

On a Mixed, everything proceeds as predicted.

Menu

• Mixed: You have to pay more or settle for something similar

End of Session

At the end of a session, players can choose to convert however many Flavor they want to experience (1:1 exchange).

---

If a player fulfilled their Secret Ingredient this session, they mark 1 experience. Then, as a group, answer the following:

• Did we learn something new and important about the world?
• Did we overcome a notable foe?
• Did we loot any memorable treasure?

---

For each “yes” players mark experience.

A Note on Ammo

This ammo system works slightly differently than Dungeon World's to compensate for the inclusion of firearms. Essentially, When a weapon that uses ammo attacks, unless otherwise stated, it will always spend 1 ammo, but this is an abstraction of the physical amount of shots you take. For example, a Condiminteer could be dual wielding two Flavor Blasters with a total ammo count of 4, and the action could be "I run along and fire several times at my target." A good roll could result in just one ammo use, and a bad roll could result in several.

Clown Appendix

Clowns have a long and storied tradition in Fudea. Over the centuries clowning has become a regimented art form with specific styles and schools. Most notably, Clowns have developed a visual language in the ritual makeup they apply as part of their profession. No two Clowns wear the same pattern and color combination, and to one skilled in the reading of this visual language, a Clown's training and past are clear as the nose on their face.

---

Listed here is some more information about the schools of clowning, as well as an example of how a Clown's makeup might signify things about them. There is no officially created language of makeup for this class, it will be up to you and your GM to come up with meaning for your Clown's makeup.

The Schools of Clowning

All of Clowndom falls into three broad schools of clowning. These are both schools of thought as well as physical schools spread throughout the continent. An official Clown will have trained at one of these schools under a master, and impersonating a Clown is a grave offense that these masters do not take lightly. Many a fool thought he could be a Fool, and have paid the price when the enforcers tracked him down.

The Classic Whiteface

This is the modern Clown of prestige; sophisticated, genial, they attend the royal courts and make jests for nobles. A Classic Whiteface's lineage may very well rival the bloodlines of those they entertain. Classic Whiteface is instantly recognized by the thick white greasepaint that covers every inch of their skin, and the elegant lines used in their face.

The Auguste

The Auguste is the least regimented of the schools of clowning. They are sometimes demeaned by their fellow Clowns for pandering to the "common" crowd. The Auguste tends to focus on a slapstick variety of comedy designed to appeal to the lowest common denominator. The Auguste believes laughter is a universal bonding language and has no qualms rubbing elbows with the working man. The Fool, the Buffoon, the Dolt, and the Tramp are all common names and variants of the Auguste. Their makeup tends toward the colorful, but their design and color scheme really covers the entire spectrum, you are much more likely to spot an Auguste by their actions than their dress.

The Harlequin

The Harlequin is the oldest school of clowning. In many ways they are proto-Clowns. Their makeup tends to be subtle, and they often will wear painted masks instead of painting their faces. The original court Clown, they combine the physicality of the Auguste with the acerbic wit of the Whiteface. While the Whiteface's comedy often is cerebral in nature, the Harlequin takes it a step futher, often mocking the guests they are set to entertain. In fact, before Clowns were known as entertainers, one of the primary duties of the Harlequin was to mock the kings of old, jab at them and keep them humble. Their style of clowning has over the years fallen out of favor, and the Harlequin school is the smallest and least influential of the three schools, but well respected among other Clowns for the cultural legacy they carry.
