MurderHobo Connections
About
MurderHobo Connections is a roleplaying game, played by at least two players and one non-player who helps to guide the players through the game, called the Narrator from here on.
Players take up the role of adventurers, and move throughout an imaginary world freely, their interactions with each other and the world changing it in vital ways.
The key concept to MurderHobo Connections is relationships between players, and non-player-characters (called NPCs from here on). With better relationships, players gain abilities to protect each other, and more events where they can change the narrative. However, with worse relationships, other abilities and events are also unlocked, many with undesirable impacts to the game, and some desirable impacts.
The player’s personal relationships with their deity will also affect what abilities they have, and what events the narrative may encounter.
This document attempts to set forth the mechanics, leaving the actual worldbuilding up to the Narrator. However, a sample campaign with the lore, maps, and so on already created for the Narrator is also included. (SampleCampaign)
— — —
Style of Game
MurderHobo Connections is meant for casual play.
As such, many of the rules and mechanics heavily bias themselves towards the players, making it easy to become highly successful at the quests that they encounter, etc.
This is entirely intentional.
As for the actual rules, neither players nor the Narrator should feel strong impedance to follow them to the letter. If fudging them makes it easier and keeps people engrossed in the game, then that should be what happens. The idea is to make sure everyone is having fun.
Narrator’s Note: They’re more like guidelines than actual rules.
As in most roleplaying games, the idea of ‘metagaming’ should be discouraged. That is, players discussing the best course of action to take, when clearly their characters would be unable to discuss it. Especially when a revealed piece of knowledge would not have actually been revealed to all the characters.
However, as MurderHobo Connections is a casual game, a certain amount of metagaming may be allowable. The Narrator should show some consideration for the players, and try to guide them as best they can. There is no cut and dried approach that will work for every party.

Dice Rolling
Most dice rolls will be referred to as a triplet of characters, a number, followed by the letter ‘d’, followed by a number.
The first number, refers to the quantity of dice to be rolled. For example, 2d6, will refer to rolling 2 dice.
The second number, refers to the number of pips that the dice should have. That is, a d6 is the standard dice that most games are played with. It is a die with 6 sides.
MurderHobo Connections exclusively makes use of the d6 die, to keep things simple. As most households will have a handful of d6 dice available. If you do not have enough dice, then you can repeat a roll. A minimum of a single d6 die will be required for play.
— — —
Requirements of Play
Essential
These tools are required for playing the game:
Access to at least one full copy of this manual.
A single d6 die.
Highly Recommended
These tools are highly recommended for playing the game:
Note taking materials. (e.g. Pencil, eraser, and paper or a digital note taking application).
Printed character sheets.
Printed maps, especially for ‘Battle Encounter’s.
Printed cards for character quirks, relationship abilities, spells, weapons and armour.
— — —
Creating a Player
For any step, if you can’t decide, why not try a dice roll to decide?
Choose a deity - These will effect your rewards.
See the Deities chapter. (Deities)
Roll 1d6 for starting zealotry - How intensely do you believe in your deity?
Players with different zealotry will get along differently.
You can gain/lose zealotry along the way.
The Narrator may allow a player to choose their zealotry, instead of rolling it.
Choose a personality - These have a number of effects on gameplay.
See the Personalities chapter. (Personalities)
Choose a class - This effects your attacks, skills, outfits and weapons.
See the Classes chapter. (Classes)
Choose a species - This effects your starting attributes, and starting relationships.
See the Species chapter. (Species)
Choose your food preferences - This effects the gameplay of increasing certain player attributes.
See the Food chapter. (Food)
Each kind of food should get one of:
Love
Like
Meh
Dislike
Hate
Roll 1d6 and add it to 5 for your starting Health Points, then add any other starting HP bonuses (class, etc).
Roll 1d6 and add it to 5 for your starting Magic Points, then add any other starting MP bonuses (class, etc).
Roll 1d6, add any other starting AP bonuses (class, etc). for your starting Attack Points.
Roll 1d6, add any other starting MPP bonuses (class, etc). for your starting Magic Proficiency Points.
Roll 1d6, add any other starting DP bonuses (class, etc). for your starting Defence Points.
Roll 1d6, add any other starting SP bonuses (class, etc). for your starting Speed Points.
Player’s Note: You probably don’t want to tell everyone your stats. The game is roleplay, if you’re a zealous worshipper, everyone else can work it out without you giving them a number!
Narrator’s Note: You can allow multi-classing, for things like classes, deities, and so on. However, you’re going to want to be careful how you balance it. It’s a little bit harder to get that right in this game.
If you end up with something that isn’t balanced, don’t be afraid to change the rules, and talk your players through the changes. It would probably be wise to get them involved if you’re in this situation, too!

Player Statistics Caps
A player’s values are capped in the following ways:
Zealotry - Must be in the range 0..10.
Relationships - All relationships must be in the range -10..+10.
Max HP - Must be in the range 1..1000.
Max MP - Must be in the range 1..1000.
AP - Must be in the range 0..1000.
DP - Must be in the range 0..1000.
SP - Must be in the range 0..1000.
MPP - Must be in the range 0..1000.
These maximum values only apply to the player’s values before any extras, such as from a weapon or outfit, are applied. That is, the base value is capped, but various things may allow the player to far exceed, or go far beneath, these values.

Player Sheet
Creating a Party
All parties have a Shared Inventory.
They start out with:
200 Gold
2x InstaHeals
2x InstaManas
1x Outing Ticket per every 2 players in the party.
2x Gambling Tickets per every 2 players in the party.
Unless the non-gambling alternative is in play. (Gambling), in which case no Letters are added to the inventory.
Additionally, every player starts out with a relationship of 0 with every other player, apart from any starting effects (such as by species).
Parties do not begin with any Companion Creatures (CompanionCreatures).
Narrator Note: If you want to start a party off with formed relationships and animal friends, go ahead! It will likely make the start game faster, and you may have to be careful balancing it, but you are the one creating the world. Tweak it to fit your players.
Narrator Note: Whilst the Narrator may start off players in varying locations, it is probably best to start them in the one town, so that they can hook up into a party more easily, and smoothly.

Party Inventory Sheet
Party Inventory Sheet
Deities
All players have a deity that they serve.
They may or may not be into serving the deity, how zealous their character is reflects this. The more zealous a player, the greater the rewards, and the greater the problems that it may cause for the character.
The Narrator should make full use of this during roleplay, wherever it makes sense.
— — —
Zealotry
Zealotry refers to how tightly a player follows their particular deity.
The value of this must be within the range 0..10.
This value may or may not directly affect the player, depending on other choices that they have made.
Certain events will cause a player to lose and/or gain zealotry.

Madness
Those of this faith tend to be anarchistic by nature, rejecting the rule of law and much of organised hierarchy - however it is not necessarily required. The insanity of bureaucracy may be seen as an act of worship to the Madgod.

Lawful
Those of this faith tend to be stoic in nature, or enjoy organisation in some fashion. Their outlook on the world tends to be extremely black and white. There are things that are allowed, and things that are not. Compromise is anathema to them.
