After the world went silent, the ones still roaming its desolate lands started to change. Among the ashes of yesterday, quiet life flickers.

The "I know a Guy" mechanic, but you can't just make up a new npc to help. Instead, you can once per session point at an established npc and say, "aw, shit, that's my ex."

miscellaneous: folk horror vs. post-apocalyptic

folk horror: folk horror consists of movies that are heavily focused on a community's relationship with the earth. often set in rural or secluded areas, the brutal clash between modernism and primitive societies comes to a head, and mother nature tends to always prevail. folk horror often dabbles in old ideas or folklore and focuses on themes of isolation and a character’s relationships with themselves and the earth.

examples: midsommar, lamb, the wickerman

post-apocalyptic: post-apocalyptic films feature characters in a wasteland location. in a world destroyed by various causes, such as nuclear war or a medical pandemic, these films tend to focus on the end of the world and the struggle for survival.

examples: doomsday, bird box, daybreak

[one-time-i-dreamt]

I was living in a post-apocalyptic world (I have these types of dreams often?).

A group of us were standing in a field of beautiful purple flowers when one person suddenly turned into a terracotta colored tower that kept growing taller.

We left and spent the night in an abandoned school. When we came back, the tower was gone.

We assumed that she died and "despawned" once she got too high up to breathe. Events like this were a common occurrence.
