Harvey Picrew for Lastland, Iris, Princeton: Lastland

[vintagerpg]

Let Us In (2021) is Luke Rejec’s very brief, very brilliant little Halloween zine. It is system agnostic — you can probably play it with the ultra light resolution system provided (a single paragraph long!) or you can bolt the pre-generated characters’ special abilities onto another light system of choice. I’d suggest Tunnel Goons, perhaps.

Anyway, the game is set in the Lastlands, a strange setting that feels like a near future, possibly post-apocalyptic world (though one that has largely recovered), but one portrayed through a retro lens. Rejec mentions '70s films as inspiration, and that is in here, but I actually get a bit of a Mid-Century Modern vibe. Regardless of the specifics, there are a lot of intriguing details hinting at a large world for such a brief game. I can easily see this as a movie, which is not something I generally think about RPGs.

There are four pre-generated characters. They’ve come to a somewhat remote mansion to check in on one character’s aunt, who wrote a panicked letter, then wrote another taking it back, then vanished. Something STRANGE is going on. I don’t want to ruin the surprise with specifics, but it is both extremely unnerving and surprisingly polite.

My very favorite thing is how the game is structure. It’s a three hour game, the first real-time hour the players explore the mansion and deal with creepy but non-threatening issues, the second hour serious threats emerge, the third pushes to resolution — the players must act decisively and face the consequences of their choices. Its a tight, but elegant construction.

Rejec illustrated the whole thing as well, in black, white and orange. Its lovely.

sea you someday! - wizard of earthsea chp 10

For people so interconnected by the sea, there is a greater sense of physical and cultural isolation for people in places that are too far away from the “hub”. As Ged traverses the archipelago and its peripheral islands on the quest for his shadow, the people he comes across perceive him with varying levels of apprehension, curiosity, and recognition. 

At the end of chapter 8, Ged reaches the West Hand, where “the villagers were rough shy people, awed by a wizard’s staff, wary of a strange face, but hospitable to one who came alone, over sea, before a storm” (176). They are on the northern end of the East Reach, with the antagonistic Kargad Lands to the North and Open Sea to the East, so they likely don’t see many strangers pass through. Still, the Hands are close enough to other islands that they have managed to hear tales of wizards and the power they are able to wield, though they rarely have the chance to meet them in person.

In contrast, Ged and Vetch come to Astowell in chapter 10, far beyond the East Reach, the Lastland before the habitable world seems to end. The wizards are met with more initial hostility, especially because “no boat had ever braved the seas round Astowell” (203). The women and children draw away in fear, and the men gather around Ged and Vetch armed with weapons. Unlike in the West Hand, Astowell’s apprehension is caused by their appearance as strangers in general rather than because they are powerful. The people “seemed not to recognize the young wizards’ staffs for what they were” (203), astonished that Ged was an Archipelagan rather than a wizard.

The Open Sea

Because so much of Earthsea is divided by ocean, all people in it have strong connections to water (even though this varies in nature from one place to the next). The archipelago is the only significant landmass, so many people of Earthsea live on one of the scattered islands completely surrounded by water. The archipelago seems relatively well connected and, even where people don’t travel to other islands, there’s still trade and communication with other places. However, this seems very different for the Reaches. Ged and Vetch stop briefly at Astowell (or “Lastland”) which is described as completely isolated from the rest of the world. So few people travel that far and the island has so few resources for trade that only their very old leader had ever encountered someone from the archipelago (pg 203). Their physical distance from the closest land (about 150 miles based on the map) is combined with being limited by boats made of woven reeds due to not having wood available, resulting in a very different way of life compared to other parts of Earthsea. This is an interesting contrast to Ged and Vetch, who use the “magewind” to help them travel and by this point had seen many other places on the way.

It's not what comes easiest that makes us valuable, Katelyn. The wealth of our character is determined by what we push ourselves to become.

OCs Danganronpa style

Iris, Storm, Clover, Sonorhc, Reaper, Nevermore (plus their roles in a Killing Game)

Citations/references at end of post

Protag turned killer: Iris (fear of death)

Hero to the end: Storm (love of Iris, desire to protect)

"Sacrificial lamb": Clover (love of Iris, desire to protect)

Mastermind: Sonorhc (apathy, interest in studying humans)

Comic Relief: Reaper (looks scary, is silly, "gentle giant")

Snaps, goes crazy, becomes Chap 3 killer, mistaken for Mastermind: Nevermore (Mikan-like, except her backstory is about lineage rather than abuse)

(Alternatively, something happens that allows Iris and Storm to live or die together rather than only one making it out, because they're my OTP! #bias LOL!)
