So I'm participating in a Character Creation Challenge in January. For 31 days I'm going to create a different character for a different role-playing game. Several of the days will be used to create a Star Trek RPG character. Most of the ST games are talked about on this forum so I will post the links to the characters here when I create them.

Thanks for sharing. Always nice to see old school Trek get some love.

Nice! Thanks for the pingback. I’m glad Far Trek seems to be getting some traction—I see it mentioned more and more.

Nice! There is much to love about Prime Directive. The lighter lore of PD1 and the familiar number ranges of D20 make those versions easier to mine, for me.

Thanks, Carl. Yeah, I suppose CODA gets the least amount of attention around here for obvious reasons — it’s pretty heavy, broadly “3e-ish,” thus perceived as the opposite of old school, stats are not in the familiar 3-18 range, it’s mostly TNG-based, minimal adventuring material (NO published scenarios that I know of for TOS-era). (Mirror Universe book is fun, but sadly never saw print.) It seems like it would be a lot of effort to get started with, and a lot of effort to sustain a campaign.
That said, I have been getting deep into Decipher’s Lord of the Rings RPG lately. Been discussing it on a Facebook group I created.

That said, I have been getting deep into Decipher’s Lord of the Rings RPG lately. Been discussing it on a Facebook group I created. I played the h*ll out of Decipher's LotR back in 2003-5. I had a lot of fun, but man, there's like 50 pages of errata for that game. I even did a fair amount of contribution to the "Hall of Fire" fanzine back in the day (primarily the 'Realm of.." articles, and an article on "Magic in Middle-earth").
I've since moved on to The One Ring. I have Adventures in Middle-earth (the One Ring in D&D 5e), and it looks promising, but haven't actually played it yet.

Cool! I have the 2nd printing of LotRRPG, which incorporates the errata, or at least most of it. Still, I’m likely going to either homebrew the heck out of it, or mine the good stuff out of it and bolt it onto old school D&D.
