* BandageBabe: Most Dolls are composite of body parts.

None

Added DiffLines:

* OrganDrops: After the end of a battle, the dolls can rummage through the remains of their opponents in order to heal, regenerate or replace any body part, enhancement or equipment they may have lost during combat. Basic body parts are cheaper to recover than reinforcement parts. More dangerous enemies will naturally drop more to work with. Though in some situations they may find the haul insufficient and will have to contend with a missing arm or leg or two until the next fight.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Pilebunker}}: It's one of the higher tier weapons in the game. It punches through armor and shoves the target towards another position.

game. Kind of a given since you are playing as one of the living dead. As long as at least one of your doll's body parts survives the battle, they can be put back together again good as new (soft of).
* OurZombiesAreDifferent: Intelligent, emotional and do not eat brains. The setting also contains mindless zombies, closer to the voodoo variety - controlled directly or indirectly by the Necromancer - as well as general rules for creating all sorts of undead horrors.
* ShoutOut: Among others: Several reinforcement parts available for equipping on your doll in the rulebook are references to or inspired by various horror films (especially of the zombie genre), science fiction, slasher films and even video games alongside more anime inspired ones.

The setting "Undead Gun" is a reference to a modded weapon that appeared in the 2003 zombie flick ''Film/{{Undead}}''. Basically it's a bunch of shotguns welded together to fire simultaneously with a pull of a trigger.
** "[[Anime/GhostInTheShellStandAloneComplex Tachikoma Legs]]" or "Crab Legs" which replaces your doll's lower half with that of mechanical multi-legged armored platform.
** There's

** You can also have your doll have scissor
for creating hands just like good old [[Film/EdwardScissorhands Edward]].
** Video game refence include a {{BFS}} called the "Great Knife"; A clear reference to [[VideoGame/SilentHill2 Pyramid Head]]'s signature weapon of choice.
** On the sci-fi side there's a LaserBlade literally called the "[[Franchise/StarWars lightsaber]]".
* SanityMeter: One of the key features of the game. Several situations and events in the game (such as witnessing something horrifying, using a skill or rerolling a dice roll) incurs Madness Points. These points are allocated to Fetters; the doll's connections or relationship towards other characters or personal possessions. Once a fetter is completely filled this will inevitably lead to:
* SanitySlippage: A fetter fully filled with madness points will make the doll act erratically and incur negative status effects or penalty towards themselves, the fetter's target or the party as a whole. (such as the doll becoming obsessively clingy towards another doll) Once
all sorts of undead horrors.the doll's fetters are filled, they enter a state of broken-heartedness, preventing the party from conversing with said doll (which is one of the primary means of losing madness points) and the player loses control of the doll (essentially acting as a game over for them).


Added DiffLines:

* ThisIsADrill: Drills can be attached to your dolls as weapons. Their in-game properties makes them good armor piercing weapons.

Nechronica is a game about being physically strong but emotionally vulnerable in a world where everything is dead or undead, including you and your "sisters". The players take on the role of Dolls - undead girls capable of thought and feeling - and fight against the Necromancer and his minions, even though it is the Necromancer who created the Dolls in the first place, as simple amusement or decoration for this rotting, undead world.

While the bulk of the game mechanics are concerned with patchwork zombie construction and body horror and the combat between these undead girls, it also contains a detailed and extensive madness system, which relies on and produces complex emotional attachment between the player characters, and even with their occassional sentient foes. A central mechanic to the game is that the only way for a Doll to stay stable and sane is to rely on and manage these intense and often contradictory and irreconcilable emotional attachments to her sister undead girls.

Nechronica is a game about clutching at fragile flowers of hope in a dead world and trying not to crush the petals in your twitching, undead fingers.

A world in which humanity has met its end.
A world in which everyone has died.
A world in which nothing more can die.
In which naught stirs but walking corpses.


''Nechronica -The Long Long Sequel''- is a tabletop RPG published by Tsugihagi Honbo/Patch Works and designed by Ryo Kamiya, best known outside Japan as the designer of {{Maid RPG}} and {{Zettai Reido}}.

The protagonists of Nechronica are the girls of this world unfortunate enough to possess hearts- the Dolls.
To put it simply, it is a game in which the players become zombie girls and fight against other zombies.

The one who caused the dead to wake- the ruler of this shattered world- is the Necromancer.
The Necromancer serves as both the master of the game and the archenemy.
For it could be none other than the Necromancer who gave hearts to the Dolls.
For in a world filled with mindless puppets, the Dolls- they alone whom possess wills of their own- are no more than toys.
For the tragic comedy wrought by the foes sent against them is a delightful spectacle.

Since Dolls are already dead, they will find no rest when they are broken.
The peace of death came to an end long ago, just as did the world itself.

As we have a cup of tea, beneath these skies as gray as lead-
let us tell the tale of this long, long epilogue.

to the Dolls.
For
game is that the only way for a Doll to stay stable and sane is to rely on and manage these intense and often contradictory and irreconcilable emotional attachments to her sister undead girls.

Nechronica is a game about clutching at fragile flowers of hope
in a dead world filled with mindless puppets, and trying not to crush the Dolls- they alone whom possess wills of their own- are no more than toys.
For the tragic comedy wrought by the foes sent against them is a delightful spectacle.

Since Dolls are already dead, they will find no rest when they are broken.
The peace of death came to an end long ago, just as did the world itself.

As we have a cup of tea, beneath these skies as gray as lead-
let us tell the tale of this long, long epilogue.

Nechronica -The Long Long Sequel- is a tabletop RPG published by Tsugihagi Honbo/Patch Works and designed by Ryo Kamiya, best known outside Japan as the designer of {{Maid RPG}} and {{Zettai Reido}}.

The protagonists of Nechronica are the girls of this world unfortunate enough to possess hearts- the Dolls.
To put it simply, it is a game in which the players become zombie girls and fight against other zombies.

The one who caused the dead to wake- the ruler of this shattered world- is the Necromancer.
The Necromancer serves as both the master of the game and the archenemy.
For it could be none other than the Necromancer who gave hearts to the Dolls.
For in a world filled with mindless puppets, the Dolls- they alone whom possess wills of their own- are no more than toys.
For the tragic comedy wrought by the foes sent against them is a delightful spectacle.

Since Dolls are already dead, they will find no rest when they are broken.
The peace of death came to an end long ago, just as did the world itself.

As we have a cup of tea, beneath these skies as gray as lead-
let us tell the tale of this long, long epilogue.
