This is exactly the way i've always interpretted the way it was written, too. milo On May 27, 2009, at 2:42 PM, "funfungiguy" <funfungiguy@...> wrote: ...
You're totally right. I goofed in my statement. (I haven't played in looong while.) I mean, it makes sense. If the highest starting Strength is a 7, the...
hi I'm new here and well I remembered I once owned twerps and love the stupid simpleness it was. It was so much fun and I would like to try and get back the...

Hello all I'm pleased to be part of this group as I'm a long-time fan of TWERPS and Jeff Dee's other works. I began roleplaying some 30 years ago with D&D and...
Hiya Thom, and welcome to TWERPS! Glad to have you. If you want to ask any TWERPS questions or start a topic of conversation, please just jump right in. ...
Thanks Garry! I've been very impressed by the variety of great files I've seen thus far. From 30's pulp figures to a pizza-driven Superdudes adventure, it's...

In TWERPS supplements, in the section on Character Generation, we always see how the characters get the first profession or skill free, and each additional...
I play as follows: First Profession is free. The second and any other Professions cost 1 ST each. If your character is ST 5 and takes only his free Profession,...
Yes but how does that affect the ST scores of the professions? For example if he has a ST5 and takes his first free skill as a medic, he should have ST6 for...
As I said before, the way we play is that additional Professions lower your ST for all rolls. The only way to raise it back up is to earn and spend Experience...
That's how I always read it... the STR lowers for all professions. You want to be able to everything? You pay for that by not being as good at anything. -Will ...
I suppose... It just doesn't make sense though. I can have no professions and do everything at ST5, or I can have two professions (which would imply that I...
Also, don't forget that one does buy much more than numbers with a profession. For me it is about lore and background as well! (and sometimes there is even a...
Samir and Norm, Well put. I guess I always assumed everybody could do everything, but professions let you do it better. I will have to look into Norm's...
