Twitter RPGs
A few times, I’ve been inspired to write a micro RPG directly on twitter. Given the slow death of the platform, I wanted to preserve them here.
Costumes, a 364-day RPG
Costumes, a 364-day RPG
What kind of monster are you?
Which of your monstrous features is the most visible? Which are you most proud of? Which are you most ashamed of?
For each, how do you painfully, uncomfortably, or tediously remove or hide them to appear human?

Example of play:
I’m a harpy. My most visible and proud features are my feathers, which let me soar through the sky. I am ashamed of my voice, which is harsh and painful to hear.
Every week I meticulously pluck any newly-growing feathers, and I lower my voice to a barely audible whisper.

Appendix C: Maybe draw a sketch of your newly discovered slime with your letter, maybe interacting with other slimes on your ranch?
Appendix D: Your new slime type doesn’t have to be a new species, ie a Chief Slime might just be one slime the others listen to. With a cute hat.
