Metamorphosis: Becoming Fae—or, the Art of Change
Tumblr media
LINK TO KICKSTARTER
GET THE QUICK START
Metamorphosis is a TTRPG about change, magic, and Fae. You finally left Arcadia, the city of awe and terror. Now, what will you become?
Pierce the Veil
You are a magic thing and you have left Arcadia. The human world is vast and daunting.
Perhaps you’re returning home; perhaps this place is even stranger than Arcadia to you. Regardless, you must decide whether to seek revenge, reconciliation, or reinvention of the self. The question is, can you become powerful enough to achieve it?
Fortunately, power is a resource. And resources can be taken.
Features:
Nine chimerical playbooks, each with its own unique Core Magic. Will you be a deal-making Hag, a carnivorous Redcap, or charmingly artificial Galatea? Or something else entirely?
Mechanics for navigating the land of fae - Just like deep-sea diving: the deeper you go, the worse it is. What will you find in Arcadia's core?
Distinct modes of play - will your fairy Circle go on a Heist to recover the cursed amulet, or are they on a Wild Hunt for the Ogre Queen? Different Mission types give you different rewards and boons.
You are your magic - From channeling the magic of the seasons, to gifting inanimate objects with the spark of sentience, magic in this game is based off your character's relationship to Arcadia.
Tumblr media
Eat the Fair Folk. Or beg them for forgiveness. Or rise in their ranks. Or, if you're lucky, find a way to escape your Curses and write a new ending to your story.

ABOLISH THE MONARCHY (in this brand new TTRPG)
Tumblr media
Guillotine: Crown of Blood
Harness heretical magic, discover cutting-edge technology, and overthrow the crown in this Gothic fantasy TTRPG.
KICKSTARTER LINK
--------------
GUILLOTINE: CROWN OF BLOOD is a TTRPG where you can -- and should -- destroy the Crown. Use magic. Use wit. Use weird new technology, forged by your own hand. Use prayer, even if it's unorthodox. Use rhetoric to win hearts and minds. Or just beat the shit out of them. It's up to you.
Tumblr media
Fact Sheet:
FUNDED IN JUST SIX HOURS!! Plus, we've unlocked our first stretch goal (character generation tables!)
Runs on the Powered by the Apocalypse system.
Based on games like Armour Astir, Heart: The City Beneath, Monsterhearts, and Monster of the Week.
Play as members of a Cause, against an oppressive Crown of your own making -- then play as the antagonists during a Villain Turn where you can torment each other's characters, or otherwise advance the plot.
Ten unique playbooks.
Includes weird magic, talking your way out of trouble, strange gods, and a worrying amount of blood.
Mechanics that let you become unhealthily obsessed with your friends, lovers, rivals, and political scapegoats. The more you interact, the more you understand them: for better or worse.
BONUS: Use Martyr moves to permanently remove your character from the narrative, irrevocably changing the fabric of the city, the revolution, or even the laws of physics!
All you need are some friends (or at least fellow travelers) and you're good to go! Do you have what it takes to destroy the Crown? Will you destroy yourself in the process? There's only one way to find out.
