  • Who Framed Roger Rabbit a Jumpchain CYOA (V1) Welcome, Jumper, to Los Angeles
    Who Framed Roger Rabbit A Jumpchain CYOA (V1) Welcome, Jumper, to Los Angeles. Here, cartoon characters- such as Mickey Mouse or Bugs Bunny- work as actors and entertainers, producing the classic cartoons that we all know and love. These cartoon characters- called “Toons”- live in their own part of town, which is fittingly named “Toontown”. But all is not right, and very soon events will transpire that threaten the very existence of Toons. Greed, Patty Cake, murder all threaten to bring Toontown to its knees. In a few days, one Eddie Valiant will be commissioned by R.K. Maroon, head of Maroon Cartoons, to investigate Roger Rabbit’s wife; Jessica Rabbit, a sensual Toon who dances at the Ink & Paint Club. Will you assist Eddie Valiant in his mission, or will you ensure the destruction of Toontown? Maybe you’ll do neither. But in any case… Here’s 1,000 CP to help you get situated. Origins: Roll 2d8+18 for your age. Gender stays the same; you can pay 50 CP to change both. Drop In: You know the drill; no new memories or a history in this world. You start outside of the ACME factory, where cartoon props and gag items like disappearing-reappearing ink are made. (0 CP) Drop In-Toon: That’s… different. You’re a Toon now, but you don’t have any new memories or a history. You might be able to get a job at Disney or Warner Bros if you’re funny enough. You might also be able to get your own strip in the funny pages, if it’s the non-moving cartoons you like.
