Interested in trying Maid the RPG again, and inspired by

Scenario: This is not a normal game of Maid the RPG. In a normal game, you'd be playing a maid trying to gain favor from the GM's playable character, 'the master'. In this game, you all are a team of magical girls and the GM's player character is a guy you drag along to battles for things that require an adult, such as owning and driving a car. Favor will come from defeating monsters and by creatively and humorously grinding my character's desires for a normal life into the dust.

How to play Maid the RPG: (Feel free to skip) You have a character with six traits (Athletics, Affection, Skill, Cunning, Luck), an initial Favor score (starts at your affection times two), and Spirit (starts at your Will score times ten). Favor is the equivalent of XP, you can use favor to upgrade your traits or sacrifice your traits to increase your favor. If your favor falls below zero, you MUST sacrifice traits if possible or your character will be dismissed from the game. If your spirit falls below zero, you have a stress explosion which may cause you to lose favor.

When you attempt a challenge, you will be told the target difficulty and suggested traits. You choose which trait you want to use, then roll a six-sided dice. Multiply your character trait score by the dice value, and if the total is over the target difficulty, you win!

Combat is similar, except instead of the GM assigning a target number the two competitors each pick a trait and roll a d6. Multiply together; winner has the higher score. Take the Winner's score, divide it by the loser's chosen trait, and then the loser takes the resulting amount as stress. Combat is ANY competition between two characters, whether both P Cs or PC and NPC, and whether the combat is physical or mental.

How to create a character: Go to this character generator and create a character. When generating a character, select 'three special qualities' and then from the generated character delete one, so that your character only has two special qualities.

[up] Approved.

So, we have a magic girl that can fly and who's power/element/symbol is space/stars. If the glasses give her any sort of boosted vision, she can fill a scout/air support role.

He is currently living in one of the buildings, in return as acting as the building manager for his parents. In addition, he is trying to earn money as electronic repair technician for Comp-U-Nerds, a computer repair service using the same model as Uber. All of his siblings are wealthy professionals, and his parents often berate him for being a failure and not even having a girlfriend. Although possessing no physical combat skills, when stressed out he responds by brief bursts of violence against walls or other objects. He has never hit another person. Drives a beat-up old station wagon that he keeps his tools and repair parts in the back.
