Two of these stats are in my TTRPG (gumption and moxie).
It also features things like pep, knacks, savvy, and nerve.

Uh, link??!? Or is it only on paper?
I think chutzpe and moxie used to be stats in Paranoia
Made me think about Dimension 20's Mentopolis. All of these would be characters instead of stats though.
Nice. If they ever do another season of Mentopolis, I hope they get Hank Green to play "The Fix"s younger brother "Childlike Wonder".
Just rework gumshoe
There could be a debuff called "wishy washy", it increases your childlike wonder, but lowers your gumption.
whats a jib?
I know it's a joke, but: a really small sail.
This reminds me of West of Loathing
The X of Loathing series is fantastic. Another stat that comes to mind is Hornswogglin'
Oh shit i didn't know it was a whole series
Yeah, it started with Kingdom of Loathing, which is a free to play browser game, and more recently Shadows over Loathing, which has this cool 1920s Lovecraftian setting. All keep that great humor :D
love this series so much
Jib.
The jib sail is the triangular one at the prow of a ship. Different countries used different designs, so liking the cut of a jib meant you recognized it.
Between Kingdom of Loathing and West of Loathing, they've got half of these covered.
I feel like Shadow over Loathing might tap into the rest, lol
Hmm... Now I need a Loathing TTRPG.
Heres my character for this campaign
Looks like you minmaxed for Gib Cut. I like that.
Ah, the "Provincial dad" class.
"Provincial dad" class features include:
- Bulk discount store membership.
- May name a "preferred grill out spot". Gains advantage on movement rolls anytime their turn would end at their "preferred grill out spot". Players who use this ability successfully must then move to their preferred grill out spot, or make a Willl save DC 14 vs 1d4 psychic damage.
- Elemental Resistance 5 (all elements) when operating any lawn or garden care implement.
- Resistant to poison (advantage on save rolls) in any food or drink that they believe to be "hand-crafted" or "locally sourced"
How are you going in with 0 gusto, are you bonkers??
chutzpah wouldn't work, the less you have the more powerful you get
Pure je ne sais quoi build.
I always have that certain something needed for the job.
That's how my bard build feels in BG3. Always know the right thing to say, to make a bad guy kill himself.
*jib
I like the cut of your gif
This was bugging me, thank you.
Moxy and chutzpah are stats in Paranoia
The computer is your friend!
Have a treason star
Also worth mentioning one of the primary stats is Violence
There’s a Cuck Tingle RPG where you can play a sentient DVD box set. IIRC your stats are not far from this
Toon had chutzpah as a stat
Play Over the Edge and those can actually be your stats.
That's like half of PBtA games, no?
Perhaps not with those exact names, but there’s a fix:
