A “story format” playtest.
The Premise
Something has gone terribly wrong in Far Far Away, the land where all fairy tales take place. Happily ever afters are being re-written, true loves are separated, clever tricksters are no longer quite as bright as they used to be.
You know that something is wrong. It happened to you, too. And now you want to fix it.
Characters
Your character should be a classic fairy tale/folk tale character. Think Grimm, Perrault and Andersen, not Disney. I will be pretty strict about this so feel free to PM me before submitting your character concept. In addition, something should have gone wrong in your particular tale (Cinderella may have never gone to the ball, Sleeping Beauty might still be asleep, etc.)
I’m a huge fan of taking fairy tale motifs and twisting them, so have fun with that. In this fairy tale, princesses are quite capable of saving themselves, thank you very much. :-)
Well known characters may get assets peculiar to that character (for example: Jack might get magic beans).
Feel free to create your own cards. You are all pros and I trust you.
I’ve set the speed to one scene per week, but am happy to go faster. I’d like this to be a quick game so that we can give feedback to the Storium team as soon as may be.
