The metal chute that connects the hall outside the Underground Theatre to the Offal Disposal...what does that look like in the hall? A hole in the floor?
In my head it was a bit more like a laundry chute. Something people won't step in accidentally, but can throw stuff down.
Gotcha. More likely a hatch in the wall then.
I have to ask...what is a goat opera?
Unique Galgenbeckian dramatic art. Imagine Shakespeare, but there's a goat on the stage and no one's allowed to acknowledge it or move it, they just have to perform around it. The most famous performances are the ones where the goat doesn't just immediately wander off into the crowd and get stolen, it stays engaged in the performance the whole time and it's a huge problem. Recently, there was a troupe that was found to have trained their goat and they were eaten.
Presumably there is more singing involved than a typical Shakespeare play?
Yes. The goat participates in that too.
On the one hand I love this
On the other hand I now have a small fluffy white dog and am no longer emotionally sturdy enough to imagine such creatures in peril
Extremely valid! An optional rule is provided for making dogs immune to harm, but a lot of the content here expects they can sometimes be in danger.
If you're looking for rpgs where the dogs are not in danger, I have one called Guardian (https://kumada1.itch.io/guardian).
Also Jeeyon Shim's Have I Been Good (https://jeeyonshim.itch.io/have-i-been-good) is really excellent.
"Jeeyon Shim's <game> is really excellent" I mean how could it not be
This is wonderfull. Thank you for making this
It was fun to write! And I'm glad you enjoyed it!
A car ran over my dog yesterday, miracously she's fine (she's a chihuahua), but needs a huckle sugery, I plan to run your adventure for some cash for her surgery, I feel that the dog theme we'll help me to feel better too. I means a lot to me that you have put those community copies, when I recover financially from this I promise you I'll pay you.
Thank's for beeing so aware of people's situation. I don't have the words to thank you enough.
I'm glad she's okay!
Definitely feel free to run the adventure to fundraise, and I'm happy to try and signal boost it when you do if you send me the link.
It's really no trouble for me to offer community copies. Distributing PDFs doesn't cost me anything, so please always feel free to grab a community copy if you see something you're interested in.
