    The players create anthropomorphic cat characters who are crew members of a flying ship powered by magic crystals. They must pick abilities and disadvantages for their ship. Their characters each have a role, backstory, number to determine their skill with diplomacy vs. combat, name, equipment and powers. The GM creates an adventure by rolling dice or picking tables to determine a mission, location, NPCs and enemies for the players. The game uses a simple dice mechanic where the players roll and try to get under or over their number depending on if they use skills like diplomacy or combat. This summarizes the key details for creating and playing a game set in the fantasy world where the players are cat explorers.

    Introduce the ship’s crew by asking each player 2 questions about their character. This can be a short
    flashback to a “job interview” scene between the player and Alcibiade. Lasers & Feelings can be found at onesevendesign.com
    Some good questions: Why did you decide to become a sailor? What in your former life prepared you for your CYBER//PUNK can be found at cyberpunk-rpg.com
    current role? What do you think of [Character X]?
    Modifications & design by Aerolithe42
    Play to find out how the adventure is going to turn out.
    Begin the game with the ship arriving at a starting location, or by having another ship approaching them. You can download this pdf at https://aerolithe42.itch.io/fluff-and-fang
    Before a threat does something, show signs that it’s about to happen, then ask what the characters do. “The
    spirit is unhappy and starts hissing at you. What do you do?” Check out my other L&F hacks: SPELLSWORD and WARRIOR PRINCESS
    Call for a roll when the situation is uncertain. Don’t pre-plan outcomes – let the chips fall where they may.
    Use failures to push the action forward. The situation always changes after a roll, for good or ill.
    In loving memory of T’challa ♥
    If you don't know something, ask the players! “Who do you know here? What’s the name of the island? What
    kind of cat is this?”
