Bravado Bones

For our online events, we have used a skin of the Powered by the Apocalypse system in a format known as Bravado Bones. It is not meant to be a replacement for the Dystopia Rising LARP system, nor is it meant to replace the tabletop system published by Onyx Path. This was designed by Sam Mars, and is used with permission. Changes to this skin have been made by Jonathan Loyd.

You can find our rules for Bravado Bones here.
