super long post. rat hotelier rpg rules 

Here's my silly RPG about playing skaven inn keepers. This is just some nonsense I wrote for a convention game this weekend

the pictures are the formatted version of the rules, I'm going to paste inline after this

Rat Hotelier! (Skaven edition!)
You play a group of skaven who have slayed an innkeeper and secretly taken over his
inn. Keep the inn running, make some cash, and keep your customers from ruining the
good thing you have going here. Or just kill everyone, whatever you’re chaotic stupid
rats.
Rules.
Divide 13 points among these 3 attributes.
RAT! This governs stabbing, gnawing, spreading plague, and other skaven stuff.
Hotelier! Your ability to run an inn. Doing the books, preparing the rooms, cooking, etc.
Disguise! Keeps people from realizing you are a terrible rat person, can also be used for hiding and
lying.
When you make a test you want to roll under your attribute number on d10s determined by the GM.
Normally you roll 2, you may be asked to roll additional dice if you have an advantage of some kind.
Helping people and getting thrown under the bus!
You may give someone else one die to roll at their value if you are in a scene with them, but you will
suffer any ill effects instead of the person who rolled the dice.
ROLLING A 13!
If at any point the total of all the dice you roll on a test equals 13 THE GREAT HORNED
RAT HAS NOTICED YOU! You succeed with the maximum number of dice rolled, but there are magical
and unexpected consequences! (mutation, disease, rolling a different rat type, gaining or losing an item,
sudden appearance of new patrons, whatever just make it weird and bad!)
Getting hit!
All rats, unless otherwise stated can take 3 hits before they die. In general the GM will ask you to
make a rat roll to avoid getting hit. If you do not get the necessary number of successes you are hit.
Rat types! Roll 1d10
1 assassin
you must kill! Any time you attack someone to kill you act before other rats, and count as
having rolled a 1 in addition to your normal die pool
2 servant
your obsequious behavior makes you eager to please, roll 1 extra die on hotelier checks
3 PLAGUE MONK!
Any time you fail a hotelier check, 1 customer gets sick.
4 Rat ogre
You are one big rat! You cannot hide. All disguise checks can only be used to convince
people you are supposed to be there. You may take 6 hits before dying, and roll a minimum of
3 dice on RAT!
5 alchemist
Any check you make involving food drink or chemicals counts successes double. Failures
on the same have dangerous consequences.
6 just a rat
You are not a skaven! You are an intelligent, but otherwise normal rat. You cannot speak,
and are tiny, but no one really suspects you of anything. You may only take 1 hit before
dying
7 Cheerleader!
You have pompoms and a skirt! Gain 1 extra die for disguise!
8 Storm vermin
you wear armor under your disguise, you count as having 1 die that rolled a 1 in addition to
your normal pool to avoid being hit
9 Swarm of rats!
Roll 1d10 to determine number of rats, you have that many HP and may be in that many
places at once. Otherwise as #6
10 WARLOCK
You are in charge. you may use RAT! To cast spells!Starting junk! Roll 2d10 twice
2 warpstone
3 poisoned knife
4 good wine!
5 convincing disguise
6 money (2d10 gold pieces in assorted change)
7 a dwarven helmet complete with beard
8 a wheel of hard cheese
9 a bronze bell
10 a judge’s wig and robe
11 a portrait of sigmar with the eyes cut out
12 a dress or a wizard robe, who can tell the difference
13 IDOL OF THE GREAT HORNED RAAAAAAAT
14 a pet rat
15 3 cat skulls tied to the ends of a whip
16 A maaaaaagic sword
17 mushrooms some magic some normal hard to tell which is which
18 13 bombs
19 a side of beef

@Momentrabbit

yep!
Those aren't actually my fault, they were a thing in blood bowl.

(they're all man rats in drag, since the women are enormous)
