200 Word RPGs 2024

Each November, some people try to write a novel. Others would prefer to do as little writing as possible. For those who wish to challenge their ability to not write, we offer this alternative: producing a complete, playable roleplaying game in two hundred words or fewer.

This is the submission thread for the 2024 event, running from November 1st, 2024 through November 30th, 2024. Submission guidelines can be found in this blog's pinned post, here.

Oh No

I bet discord put that there.

Okay. I only sleep with one pillow, but I also have 1-3 very large stuffed animals in bed with me and at least one smaller stuffed animal that wrap my arms around so honestly we actually have pretty similar sleeping habits.

wait how many pillows do regular people need

Bilbo was declared dead while he was away in the Hobbit (and had to do a bunch of paperwork to get declared alive again) but there’s no indication he was formally declared dead after leaving the Shire, even though most people assumed he had died.

Therefore I posit: having a missing person declared dead in the Shire requires the consent of their next of kin. Whoever Bilbo’s next of kin was at the time of the Hobbit (possibly Otho? I’m not sure) had him declared dead at the first opportunity but Frodo refused to ever do it.

Frodo had anxious hobbit bureaucrats knocking on his door every couple of years like ‘Mr Baggins… blease… it’s been 10 years… he was eleventy-one… can we fill out his death certificate yet’ and Frodo was like ‘absolutely not’.

Early on he genuinely couldn’t bring himself too but after a while it was more that he enjoyed irritating the local magistrate’s office than anything else.

Talking about fairies as depicted in popular fiction and folklore on Tumblr can be super frustrating because you’re constantly peppered with well-actualies from folks who are hugely overgeneralising the tropes of an excruciatingly narrow set of sources while refusing to examine – or even acknowledge – the actual context of those tropes. It’s like trying to discuss the plot of Terminator with somebody who can’t get past the fact that Arnie broke Asimov’s Laws of Robotics.

I know I’ve said this before but vampires

don’t show up on camera

can fly/scale walls

immune to bullets

can break into any safe by turning into fog or some bullshit

could probably hypnotize security guards as needed

therefore I am in dire need of a heist film where a group of vampires band together to steal back their old stuff from museums

The nearby Village simply knows you as the hunter who lives in the forest, but you have a dark secret. You are the former dark Lord. Today you returned from a hunt and found the Hero that defeated you in your Hut.

This joke came to me in a fit of laughter (ALT description provided :3!)
