Disturbing Japanese RPG


The Maid RPG. Freaky.

The premise is that the GM plays the master of a mansion of some kind, and the PCs are all his maids. It’s a wacky comedy game that can at times get disturbing if you let it.

Though I do like the PCs…

  • Tsunee Hatakeyama (16), a normal girl with glasses and freckles who was never sure why she was there in the first place.
  • Harane Oka (22), a violent, mature woman who was there to wreak some kind of revenge on the aliens through the governor’s son.
  • Hiroko Koyami (21), a relatively normal maid sent by the government to infiltrate the mansion.
  • Melinda Parks (15), a psychopath with a giant katana that she used for just about everything.
  • Lilly Marlow (139/looks 16), a vampire girl with a whip who wants revenge, but mostly just wants to cause trouble.
  • So does it sound like our type of game? :)

    In practice, the game was sort of an anime/maid fetish version of Toon; it has lots of random tables, characters can’t die (they get Stress Explosions though), and things are generally random. One of the more brilliant things is that characters can spend points to invoke a Random Event, which is why during the game a fire broke out in the kitchen, Princess Anastasia showed up through a breach in the space-time continuum, and Lily found an arcane tome that opened up a gate to the Netherworld.
