Greetings

Welcome to Lug Who. To date, there have been two officially licensed Doctor Who RPGs. The best of the two has always (in my mind) been the game published by FASA, based on their Star Trek RPG. So, when Last Unicorn Games published a new Star Trek RPG, I felt its system (with its highly detailed character stats) was ideally suited to a Doctor Who RPG. Alas, this never came to pass. So, after thinking about it all these years, I've decided to create this site. Here I will post original species templates, advantages, disadvantages, skills, equipment, ships, etc. I will be accepting submissions from anyone who might be interested in roleplaying with the Icon system.

To submit content send an email to: lugwho@gmail.com

P.S. Feel free to submit alternate ideas for things already posted.

Tree Species Template

Trees are an intelligent, bipedal, arboreal species that are direct descendants of the Old Earth Trees. The trees were sold to the Brotherhood from the Panjassic Asteroid field, who experimented on the trees, and, after hundreds of years the trees grew arms and started walking. One night, the entire race of Trees got on their Barkships after they heard the Great Calling, traveling through space for five thousand years. Trees exhibit a respect for all forms of life. They neither respect nor understand technology, referring to computers as "metal minds" or "metal machines", being intelligent and not needy of electricity. They were also aware of the Time Lords and their fate in the Time War. They are one of the higher species who were aware of the course of the war and its history-changing effects and were mortified by the bloodshed.
