Here¸ there¸ be Monsters!
here¸ there¸ be monsters! is a rules-lite response to monster-hunting media from the monsters' point of view. It's both a love letter and a middle finger to stuff like Hellboy (and the BPRD)¸ the SCP Foundation¸ the Men in Black¸ the World of Darkness games and the Urban Fantasy genre in general. It is an explicitly queer¸ antifascist and anti-capitalist game about the monstrous and the weird¸ in any flavor you want¸ not as something to be feared¸ but to be cherished and protected.Play as a diverse crew of monstrous¸ anomalous or just generally odd beings¸ fighting against those who would use¸ abuse or even annihilate you. Create and populate your own supernatural underworld¸ abnormal gang and extra-dimensional haven. Hunt monster hunters! Punch nazi occultists! Eat the rich! Protect each other! Fight back! Here¸ there¸ be monsters!
