Bunkers & Badasses (Barely a Concept)

[Sticker]

Alright guys. You saw the title and you clicked it. That's one step in the right direction.

Bunkers & Badasses, if you didn't know, is the Borderlands lore equivalent of D&D. I seek interest, and possibly help in bringing Borderlands and all of that silly, bloody, shooty-ness into tabletop RPG format. Fo'realz. Bunkers & Badasses: A Borderlands RPG.

This... Thing is currently still an embryo, though, and I have nothing worked out at all. I'd like to say I know what I'm doing, but past experiences prove that I can't develop a balanced game, tabletop or video, without consult and collab.

So! Honk if you love Krieg's meat unicycle. I'm figuring out where to start as of now, because as of an hour ago, this wasn't even half a thought. Feel free to think stuff and make suggestions.

I mean, I don't want to just, rip off D&D rules and call it a day. I think it deserves something to reflect the pointedly different capabilities/possibilities anybody in Pandora could have. With extreme effort.

So I'm thinking, if start anywhere, build one character, right? Like base stats, and go onward.

Honestly, if this should be in a different board, please let me know, and I'll relocate. :) Don't wanna adhere to the wrong page.

Charisma: Appearance, demeanor, poignancy,
ect.
Strength: Physical damage, load bearing, (weapon restrictions?)
Stability: Physical/mental; decreases accuracy and skill checks when low. Can decrease aiming drastically, though increase damage output (class depending)
Skill: Elevated competence and combat ability, counteracts low stability and intelligence when high. Aiming. Weapon use boosts.
Intelligence: General competence, cohesion, mental ability to accomplish basic tasks, up to cognizance of complex thoughts.

Anyways.
Let's start with some sort of d20 base, I mean, just repurposed. Just, to try it out. I'm rolling 3d6 for this.

Charisma: 3
Strength: 14
Stability: 3
Skill: 16
Intelligence: 5

Bad amd good, but works for a Krieg.

Time for me to sleep. Feel free to criticize, suggest, try, imagine, yeaaaah. All that good stuff. Pleeeeaaaase.
