#rpgspree #rpgspree2019 week 2:
Prompts this week are Avoid / Become
hmm
An age ago i did a riff on a friends game system for a modern horror RPG
this was admittedly after the first three WoD games had come out, and this style of game was all the rage. I had called it "What have I Become" and the idea was that the players were transforming into something less than / not quite / more than human (undead, or alien, or fae, or other)
It never went anywhere but the core mechanic was an acceptance / revulsion of the new state of being. I might take that and roll it into my current Dungeon World narrative (if that gets going again, its stopped in favour of Invisible Sun atm)
On the subject of Avoiding - I think that subconsciously I have a line-and- veil in most of my games- there's the veil of sex and relationships and the Line of rape, child abuse and (usually) torture
Its one of those things that i haven't had a character or NPC that's needed to go to those kind of places.
