Agents of Dice-ception

Nearly a century ago, humans discovered alien life on Earth. Initially terrified, they created the Federation of Intergalactic Bug-hunters to protect humanity. Over the next few decades, though, the people in dark blazers working for FiB discovered that the "bugs" were really pretty nice and shifted from policing off-worlders to making sure they stay safe and, above all, a secret. They changed the official name of FiB to "Folks in Blazers" to embrace these new roles.

You just learned about all of this when a recruiting agent tapped you to take the test to become the next member of FiB. But before you join, you'll have to show that you can outperform your fellow Potential Recruits—or at least convince them that you can. After all, if you get to "put on the Blazer" in the end, you'll be encountering things you've never seen before. Sometimes, you're just going to have to lie.

Agents of Dice-ception is a GMless storytelling RPG where players take on the role of Potential Recruits vying for the next spot. You can adjust the value of a challenge that all of the Potential Recruits are facing with dice from your own secret dice pool. But you need to walk a fine line. On one hand, you want to make the value high enough that no one else can succeed. On the other hand, you want to keep it low enough that the other Potential Recruits still think you can succeed with the dice you've kept secret.
