Did someone try to import the 13th Age idea of the Icons in DW?

1. I’ve been thinking about it! I’ll write something up and post it here soon.

2. I started working on that. I was working on it with someone, I forgot who it’s been so long. lol I have about half of it worked out I think. Want me to pm you a link?

3. There was an awesome post that classes are the icons. And PC is an incarnation or a heir to that icon.

4. Joshua Bailey yes, I would like to see some example of mechanical implementation of the relationship with icons.

5. I meant to pm you last night, but crashed. Lol Sorry. I’ll edit in the link in one moment.

6. Vasiliy Shapovalov wouldn’t be playing the Icons a big shift in assumption for the game? DW pcs are larger than life heroes, but the Icons are demigods, and dungeon crawling wouldn’t be a satisfactory focus for the game. Also the moves should be probably written for the new power level.

8. Joshua Bailey thanks!

9. Paride Papadia I actually don’t think classe or basic moves need to be tuned to play 13A Icons’ level heroes. Bonds probably and GM principles as well, but classes would work. The post I refer to, though (couldn’t find it), operated on a different premise: kinda “Long time ago there was a Fighter who wrestled leviathans in the waters and dragons in the air. Now, he is all but considered a legent, but you know a part of him lives on inside you”.

10. I would recommend using the Icons as fronts, while also altering fronts slightly so they aren’t always necessarily antagonistic.
