Siren: Simple RPG Engine

The Siren RPG system was a project I started back in university.

The game was born out of a frustration with the other RPGs available at the time, and I wanted something that was relatively easy to just sit down and learn in an afternoon.

As with most other games I’ve designed, I first and foremost wanted the game to be entirely playable with tools and components that are

  1. Not too hard to get a hold of and
  2. Relatively commonplace

For this reason, the game entirely uses regular six-sided dice as opposed to the more esoteric dice you’d find in games like Dungeons & Dragons.

The system itself is mostly a mix of ideas from GURPS, D&D, Fate, and Song of Ice and Fire RPG.
