It's a fantasy system though there's no reason you can't convert it. Most people run it using the elder Amberites from the Amber novels but I prefer not to. For example, you could run Ragnarok from Norse Mythology using similar elders of power such as Oberon being Odin; after all Ragnarok ends with all the well known Gods dead and two (?) lesser gods starting over.

What makes it work with PbP is that you can describe your whole fight in advance, style, tricks to use, things you want to try, and the GM can spin it out without going back and forth in multiple posts. Plus, like most rules light systems, it encourages role playing and story telling.

If I run something, it will start in the summer when I have more time to figure out the actual mechanics of how to set up a game on a site as I am not terribly technologically competent.

Started rewatching Buffy with the wife and got a sudden hankering for something urban fantasy-ish, so bought Monster of the Week, Something Strange for Genesys and It's Only Magic for Cypher system on drivethrurpg now :P

I just picked up Postmortem Studios' 100 Horror Adventure Seeds and 100 Dark Places on DriveThru. If you are a horror GM, I highly recommend these! They are older works, but don't be fooled; they are gold! Not every entry is going to be everyone's cup of tea (some are very dark), but I'll wager everyone can find something here of use!

I have a transformers RPG core book and I've never gotten to play it. It cost a good amount to buy. Had it for 2 years now. I thought I'd of found someone that wanted to play but nope. So that's the main one. Hope this fits your thread.

Again, won't be starting anything up until summer but was thinking, with the character backgrounds taking on more importance in the 2024 D&D PHB, it would be a great introduction to run a OSR style funnel game with 0 level characters having background skills, random stats, and backups so the GM can enjoy killing a few off before the real adventure begins.
