(Author's Note: So there's a yearly challenge to create an RPG in 200 words. This is my effort at doing one, at least the first draft so I can share it around and see if people like it and/or it can be improved. If you're interested, the page for the challenge is rightchere!
5 players
agree on a setting.
Each
writes on separate slips of paper a NAME, a BACKGROUND, a VICE, a VIRTUE, and 2
DEITY’S DOMINIONS, 3 words max each. Mix up each group in a cup, blindly take
one of each except Dominion.
This is
your character, a SOUL. The 5 of you are chained together, and one is to be
sacrificed to the Deities in 30 minutes. You have that long to decide which one
of you it should be. You may be honest or lie. Your character wants to survive,
but also wants a worthy sacrifice. Keep your decision secret.
After 30
minutes write down your choice and put it in a cup.
Each
player now takes a Dominion. You’re now the Deity of that.
Congratulations.
The 5 Deities
must now decide which of the 5 souls they want. You want someone sacrificed who
is suitable, someone who has lived like how you’d want souls to live. All
information is revealed.
Once
there is a majority agreement, tally up the votes of the souls.
If the
players chose your selection, Deities are pleased, all win.
If they
didn’t, world ends, sorry.
A tied
vote reboots the universe. Yay?
