[interest check] Do you like The Magnus Archives? Do you want your characters to wade through literal manifestations of fear? If so, let me know.

ooooooh if we're interested in the magnus archives but haven't listened because podcasts are difficult would this be a good fit??
DWRP News
Yes! You won't need to know anything about TMA to play.

Billie Sue 🌻
would younger characters be allowed, you think? I have some (and know some) who would be good fits for something like this, but not if there's an age cap

also wow so many TMA folk
𝓶𝓸𝓷𝓼𝓲𝓮𝓾𝓻𝓶𝓪𝓰𝓲𝓬𝓪𝓶
this plurk is both an interest check and a role call LMFAO
chibimoon
i want to summarize for you but i'm bad at that and what i want to say might be giving away too much haha
KETER
eldritch horror that plays on archetypal fears
𝓶𝓸𝓷𝓼𝓲𝓮𝓾𝓻𝓶𝓪𝓰𝓲𝓬𝓪𝓶
think fear of being alone, fear of the dark, fear of being controlled, etc. and these appear as literal monsters in the world
chibimoon
^^^^^^^^
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
sans the icky bits from lovecraft
chibimoon
yes
chibimoon
VERY inclusive
chibimoon
canon biromantic ace character!!!!
KETER
lesbians everywhere
chibimoon
very exciting for me as an ace person!!!!
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
also a distinct lack of sexualized horror
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
pointed, in fact
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
the series is told through read first person accounts as well as pieces of an overarching meta plot in between these 'statements'
Lady Stardust
omg YES
chibimoon
there are two major rules for the writer of the show: 1) no sexual violence 2) any animal introduced is alive and unharmed and happy
chibimoon
so no animal violence
chibimoon
and it's in its last season!
Februterri
To clarify on the animal violence for anyone who wants to listen: There is animal violence in the background. One of the episodes specifically deals with someone working at an abattoir/slaughterhouse. But pets/animals we 'get to know' are not harmed.
𝓶𝓸𝓷𝓼𝓲𝓮𝓾𝓻𝓶𝓪𝓰𝓲𝓬𝓪𝓶
I was quietly thinking of Monster Pig
Lady Stardust
he's a ood pig
Lady Stardust
a good pig
Februterri
Ah, yes. And Monster Pig.
chibimoon
ah yes
chibimoon
long live Monster Pig
chibimoon
Februterri thanks for the clarification! for some reason my mind glossed over that episode
bluecanary
We Are All Monster Pig
bluecanary
I am interested and would ask if it's an AU game? or has it been fleshed out that far? haha fleshed
☽ ʀᴏsᴇ ᴋɪɴɢ
But what if they ARE literal manifestations of fear?
bluecanary
I definitely play kidz bop beholding yes

DWRP News
Which is to say, it is an AU game. It's set in a weird-west not-Earth (...I mean, probably not earth) and it liberally steals from TMA.
DWRP News
Personally, I like building smaller, more character driven games and this idea jives really well with a long-running mystery and horror plot I'd been working on.
notadeviant
heck yes tma
notadeviant
For the game, though-- AU game means characters would be humanized on entry, yeah?
DWRP News
They can be, but don't have to be.
DWRP News
(Giant robots....probably not going to fit the tone of the game.)
notadeviant
(Understandable. Are smaller/humanish robots out, or would that be more wobbly?)
DWRP News
So long as they can feel fear, or be taught to feel fear, they're game.
notadeviant
:-D excellent
several kenobi
dreadfilled
….so, I sure made a mod account for the game.
P. ianthina
spooky...
Mister Icicle
Add me to the list of people that actually know nothing about TMA but love horror.
𝔥𝔲𝔫𝔱𝔯𝔢𝔰𝔰 🗡️
omg?! slams in here
𝔥𝔲𝔫𝔱𝔯𝔢𝔰𝔰 🗡️
a magnus archives based game would be incredible. DWRP these days could definitely use both more AU games and more dark-themed games imo
Spooky Mulder
This sounds excellent, yea

A wiggly boi!
𝕚𝕕𝕘𝕚𝕖
I haven't listened to tma, but this plurk has made me want to and also made me interested in the game being proposed!
dreadfilled
While I recommend it for enjoyment, you really don't need to know the canon for the game.
Louis LaRey
it's a very good podcast, i'm listening to it for the third time
Book Michael
I'm working on TMA and would LOVE to see a game based on it!
chibimoon
my boyfriend ratatosk got me into it only about a month ago and i fucking adore it. i don't want to listen to it again until it's finished and i can marathon the whole thing
