Day Twenty-Six, Addendum: Fate Accelerated

 If you liked the sound of Fate Core but the rules are a bit long for you, why not try...

Fate Accelerated is the same game as Fate Core but a lot faster. It's 50 pages long instead of 300. The main change is that skills have been thrown out and replaced by Approaches, which ask how you solve things - do you fight Forcefully, or Carefully, or Quickly? Some actions will be tied into different approaches; others let you choose the approach as a way of adding colour. Stunts are simplified too - they're now either 'because I am ____ I get +2 when I do something in a particular way, with a particular circumstance' or 'because I am _____ I can do some narrative thing, once per session.'

Here's Mark Melville, the bombastic Bookworm, as a Fate Accelerated character!
