| ==Character Creation==
| | See: [[MAID CATastrophe Character Creation]]. Creation rules for other modules, such as the FATE Core conversion, have yet to be finalized. |
| What follows are the rules for creating the standard Kemomi characters in Catastrophe: The Role-Playing Game.<br/>
| |
| So long as it doesn’t become a problem, with the exception of Attributes, you may re-roll any of the aspects of character creation. <br/>
| |
| For example, if you don’t like a particular Special Quality, and can’t think of a way you can get into roleplaying that kind of character, then roll again and see what you get.<br/>
| |
| If you really want to play a single certain type of Kemomi, or have picked out a Stress Explosion type that you think is perfect, then ask the GM if it will work.<br/>
| |
| | |
| ==Step 1: Attributes==
| |
| '''Roll 2D6 and divide by 3 (rounding down) for each of the six Attributes below.'''<br/>

| ==Step 4: Rare Qualities==
| |
| The next step is to determine your 'Kemomi's rare Qualities. <br/>
| |
| These are various physical, mental, or social traits that distinguish a Kemomi from her fellows.
| |
| Normally Kemomi's get two Special Qualities, but the GM may wish to increase this to between 3 and 5 in order to make the game more interesting. <br/>
| |
| Keep in mind that it can be hard to make 3 or more special qualities play an actual role in the game. <br/>
| |
| For a starting game, we suggest sticking to two special qualities. <br/>
| |
| To determine the Kemomi's Special Qualities, roll 1D56 on the Rare Quality Table below. <br/>

| ==Step 8: Name and Age==

| Finally, write down your maid’s name and age. <br/>
