Gloom: Heart Soldier Senshi

[The old-fashioned writing desk in the center of the room carries several blank pieces of paper, a fine wooden pen, and a piece of parchment covered in writing. When you take a look, you find the following epigraph in a vibrant scrawl:]

Congratulations, future wordsmiths, and welcome to your first exercise in the creation of a true masterwork of tale-telling. This evening you'll be penning a terrific tragedy, starring the family of unsympathetic ne'er-do-wells provided to you.

Your goal? Why, to construct the best story your mind can conceive, of course - and make their lives as entertainingly miserable as possible before writing one of them directly into an early grave.

I think I can manage that part, if you guys are all ok with me taking the reigns. A lot of horror movies have freaky children that can, like, commune with the dead, so we can just have our kid be similar, and then maybe our gravedigger was messing around in some burial ground and pissed off the elder gods it belonged to, so suddenly monsters on our property.

But as far as the games go, yeah, that's kind of exactly why I want to try to win. It's been real bad, save for that little kid game, and I just... really don't want to deal.

[ nods. DEFINITELY... FAIR. especially for dva. ]

All right. Let's go all in, then. But--let us help you in the later rounds. There's no reason you should have to wrack your brain for stories every time.

Of course. How about I draft something up as quick as I can and you guys can all add to it. It can still be a team effort even if I write the majority.
