Maid RPG or Meido RPG is a Japanese RPG system where one plays a maid. It uses a rules-light system, and typically plays something like an over-the-top comedy anime. It is notably the first originally Japanense pen and paper RPG to be translated and released in English. Next up, Zettai Reido! We hope.

Character generation runs on random tables which determine not only vital statistics (Athletics, Affection, Skill, Cunning, Luck, and Will, not bust size and shit), but also the relationship of the maid to her master and other bizarre quirks possessed by the maid, such as their preferred weapon. Quirks can be anything from "Has an Irish accent" to "Is a cyborg" to "Is actually the master's mistress".

The game is often criticised for being excessively sexual and deviant - while most of the rules concerning such material are explicitly optional, they are used liberally by the examples of play given in the book (the very first of which has, amongst other things, a loli maid in a see through uniform and a lesbian paedophile who gropes her). Proponents of the game contend that it is only as sexual as the players themselves decide to make it, and the game still works perfectly fine run a simple comedy without such elements. Just don't let the /d/M run the game.

One of the people responsible for the English translation frequently visited /tg/ to recruit playtesters, and the credits of the finished version include a thanks to "all the fa/tg/uys and ca/tg/irls" that helped during testing. It is now available for purchase as both a .pdf and in print from the English website.
