Call for Playtesters: GURPS Furries

[Steven Marsh]

We are seeking playtesters for GURPS Furries, by William H. Stoddard. This is a moderately long guide to the furries/anthropomorphics genre, including an extensive list of "furry" templates for GURPS.

A major focus of this playtest will be checking the templates for correct point values, legality under the standard rules of GURPS, and suitability of design to the underlying concept. Familiarity with the GURPS Basic Set and with GURPS Template Toolkit 2: Races is vital for this process. Knowledge of anthropomorphic material in graphic novels, animation, art, and other media, and of its historical sources and inspirations, is also important. Templates will prioritize fidelity to this material over scientific accuracy, and general discussion also needs to be checked against it. Playtest experience is desirable, but space will be available for participants new to playtesting.

The playtest is currently scheduled to run for about five weeks, from July 10 to August 17, 2020.

Preferential playtest slots will be given to those who have spent at least $50 on PDFs from Warehouse 23 in the past calendar year, though this is not a requirement. For more, see the general playtest information page.

Prospective playtesters should email Roger Burton West at pt-furries@firedrake.org with [playtest] in the subject. Include your preferred email address for the closed playtest mailing list, your name as you wish it to appear in the published supplement, your Warehouse 23 login name, and a few words on why we should pick you: qualifications, experience, current gaming group(s), etc. Please submit in this format:

characters for the past six years.

We look forward to hearing from you!
