LOCUS

A tabletop role playing system of personal horror

Our first published creation, Locus is a bespoke, mystery/horror roleplay game with a unique mechanics crafted entirely around horror. One of the core goals of this system was to personalise the monsters for the player characters, making it more meaningful to them and less existential or abstract. It plays with themes of guilt and regret, with all player characters requiring one or more Haunt - an event in their past which plagues them and drives the journey through a harsh landscape. The title, taken from the latin genius loci, is itself a clue to the mystery element of the game - why exactly is the world so hostile?


CRAFTED FOR HORROR

Locus has been designed from the ground up with its thematic goals in mind. One of the keystones of this development process is the dice based resolution mechanic. All rolls use 3d6, where the threshold of success is decided by the character's attributes, but the result used is decided by the difficulty of the action. This aims to create a wide spectrum of outcomes which is heavily affected by the characters the players have made. The probabilities in play help engender an atmosphere of uncertainty and tension, while maintaining the integrity of characters' mechanical identity.
