So l love Lego's, maybe not as much as a kid but they always have a place in my heart. Whenever you try to search Lego role-play or Lego D20 its always about using Legos as props for some other roleplay system. I would like to try to see what it would take to actually play as a Lego character. This could also make a family/kid friendly role-play experience. This post is going to cover several different questions and what I feel would best meet it. Please feel free to answer or even add new questions.

1: What game system to use
My first thought is using mutants and masterminds. Lego has a wide range of licenses and characters it uses and M&M also allows for a wude range of characters. (My experience is with 3e so that is what ill be referring to) M&M also has an OGL SRD (http://www.d20herosrd.com/).

2. Character points, character level
While each campaign is different what would the average character level be. I think that your average Joe lego experience and even a little more powerful Lego characters because they are Lego's dont need a big level. Definitely want to here more on this.

3. Death and Injury
This is going to be the biggest thing the separates a Lego d20 from a regular d20. I would believe in most situations instead of death your character comes apart. Perhaps you have a special place where your characters comes back or medical trained minifigs are trained to put them back together. Again I really want to here more on this.

4. Building
So this would be the reason why you would want to play a Lego d20. For now I would say each character has a skill in lego building and like the games this is how you can fix puzzles or perhaps rebuild a lego city.

More questions and comments to come later ....

Well, Risus (http://www222.pair.com/sjohn/risus.htm) is always fun for a sort of odd campaign setting...but explain here. Are you saying playing as minifigs...amongst humans? Or is this the world of Lego, like in the video games where they're alive and live in a really insanely cool world of their own? Riddle me this, and I will be able to advise further action, as will the general audience.

The whole entire world is legos like the games.
