Hollowcreek RPG: Overview and
Mechanics
Setting:
Hollowcreek High is a mysterious and
supernatural school located in a small town
surrounded by dark woods and ancient lore.
The school is a melting pot of various
supernatural beings, including vampires,
werewolves, witches, warlocks, ghouls, fae,
and infernals, each with their own unique
cultures, powers, and social dynamics. The
atmosphere is a blend of teenage drama,
supernatural intrigue, and hidden secrets,
with players navigating the complexities of
high school life while also dealing with their
supernatural identities.
Game Structure:
Hollowcreek RPG is structured around
narrative-driven gameplay, where players
create characters and participate in
storytelling, exploration, and combat. The
game emphasizes character development,
social dynamics, and the impact of player
choices on the unfolding story.
1. Character Creation:
Players begin by creating their characters,
choosing from various supernatural types.
Each character has the following attributes:
• Supernatural Type: Choose from Fae,
Ghoul, Infernal, Warlock, Vampire,
Werewolf, or Witch/Wizard. Each type has
unique abilities and powers.
• Core Stats: Players allocate a total of 23
points among five core stats:
• Endurance (END): Represents physical
resilience and stamina.
• Charisma (CHA): Measures charm,
influence, and social abilities.
• Dexterity (DEX): Indicates agility and
reflexes.
• Strength (STR): Reflects physical power
and combat effectiveness.
• Intelligence (INT): Represents mental
acuity and magical proficiency.
• Supernatural Powers: Each supernatural
type has access to a unique set of 20
powers, including specific abilities that cost
Action Points (AP) to use. Players select
powers during character creation and can
gain new ones as they progress.
2. Social Media Mechanics:
Hollowcreek incorporates a social media
mechanic, representing the influence and
popularity of characters in the school. Players
can:
• Interact on Social Media: Characters can
post updates, share experiences, and
engage with peers online, impacting their
reputation and social standing.
• Popularity Meter: Each character has a
popularity rating that affects how they are
perceived by others, influencing interactions,
potential allies, and enemies.
• Social Media Powers: Characters can gain
special abilities related to their online
presence, such as the ability to sway public
opinion or manipulate perceptions.
3. Action Points (AP):
During encounters (both social and combat),
characters have a pool of Action Points that
they can use to perform actions, cast spells,
or activate abilities. The number of Action
Points varies by supernatural type, allowing
for strategic decision-making during
gameplay.
4. Combat System:
Combat in Hollowcreek is tactical and relies
on the core stats and abilities of characters.
The key mechanics include:
• Initiative: Determine the order of actions
based on Dexterity.
• Attacks and Defense: Players roll dice to
determine the success of attacks, factoring
in their Strength (for physical attacks) or
Intelligence (for magical attacks) against the
opponent’s defense.
• Abilities and Powers: Players can use
supernatural abilities that may require Action
Points, adding complexity to combat.
5. Exploration and Narrative:
The game emphasizes exploration and
storytelling, allowing players to engage with
the world around them. Key elements include:
• Locations: Hollowcreek High is filled with
unique locations, such as classrooms,
hidden chambers, the Occult Club’s meeting
spots, and nearby woods filled with
supernatural creatures.
• Quests and Missions: Players can
undertake quests that may involve
investigating strange occurrences,
uncovering secrets, or dealing with rival
supernatural factions.
• Dynamic Storytelling: The game master
(GM) facilitates the narrative, presenting
challenges and scenarios that respond to
player choices, leading to a unique and
evolving story.
6. Occult Club:
The Occult Club serves as a central hub for
supernatural students. Players can choose to
the club, which offers access to forbidden
knowledge, powerful rituals, and exclusive
social dynamics. However, being part of the
club comes with risks, including internal
power struggles and dangerous rituals.
