Toon: The Cartoon Role-Playing Game is a silly little role-playing game, originally developed by Greg Costikyan and Warren Spector, and published by Steve Jackson Games. In it, players take on the roles of cartoon characters, then engage in all sorts of slapstick misadventures, either in standalone sessions or the game's equivalent of a campaign, a "show" (a recurring series with the same characters or in the same setting). They can choose just about any sort of species, give them a number of cartoon powers (from super-speed to a Bag of Holding to shape-shifting), and then go nuts.Several supplements — The Tooniversal Tour Guide, Toon Tales, Toon Ace Catalog, Toon: Silly Stuff, and Son Of Toon — expand the game with new props, new abilities, new scenarios, and other additional forms of insanity.The game is currently out of print, but e-book versions of Toon: Deluxe Edition (which includes material from the main rulebook, Toon: Silly Stuff and Son of Toon) and The Tooniversal Tour Guide are available from SJ Games' online store, Warehouse 23. | |

Banishing Ritual: The supplement Tooniversal Tour Guide, chapter "Crawl of Catchoolu". One type of spell available to Investigators is Banish, which allows you to send a Catchooloid creature back where it belongs. Each creature has a specific spell that affects it. | |

Damage Typing: Parodied; depending on the situation, you may take anything from "Rich Buttery Flavor Damage" to "Not Being a Texan Damage" (they all just knock down your Hit Points, though). Gamemasters are encouraged to call out attacks with highly specific names, such as "slapped silly by an improbable martial arts weapon on live television damage" or "kicked in the rear by an enraged buffalo while falling down a flight of stairs holding a Ming Vase damage". | |

Attack Reflector | |
| Toon (Tabletop Game) / int_60f37373 | comment |
Attack Reflector: Supplement Tooniversal Tour Guide "CarToon Wars". Rubber Armor Coating can be applied to a vehicle to protect it from attack. When any non-sticky attack is made against the vehicle, the attack will bounce off the vehicle back at the source of the attack, harming it. "Dungeons And Toons". The spell Mirrorshades gives the recipient a pair of mirrored sunglasses. If a creature with a gaze attack (such as a medusa) looks at the wearer, the monster's gaze attack may be reflected back at them. In the "Star Toon" chapter, starships can have a Rebound Shield that bounces two points of damage back at the ship that attacked them. "Supertoon" chapter. The Reflection superpower must be chosen to affect a specific type of attack (Physical, Mental, Energy or Magic). If hit by that type of attack, half of the damage bounces back and hits the attacker. | |

Sanity Meter | |
| Toon (Tabletop Game) / int_b351b856 | comment |
Sanity Meter: Parodied in "Crawl of Catchooloo"; since toons are already crazy to begin with, they have an insanity meter instead, and hanging out with the minions of the Elderly Gods drives the PCs sane, causing them to become boring and strait-laced. | |

Talking with Signs | |
| Toon (Tabletop Game) / int_d06305ff | comment |
Talking with Signs: Characters can pull out signs with messages on them at any time- not only can they be read, but they can also be used (one time only) for some practical purpose, such as bludgeoning opponents or even burning as firewood. If getting firewood is the goal of the adventure, though, the signs are all made of cardboard- and vice versa. | |

Emergency Taxi: This is one of the standard-issue "cartoony things". If you are in trouble or danger and need a taxi, no matter where you are, no matter what you're doing, raise your hand and yell the magic word and a vehicle will pull up immediately. Whether that vehicle is a taxicab, a tandem bicycle, or the USS Nimitz is up to the Animator's whim or a random table. | |
