Y'all, check out Monsterheats if you are interested in queer story-driven tabletop RPG about the messy emotional lives of teenage monsters.
The rulebook is evocatively written, and includes discussion of alienation, sexuality, emotionally safe play, and the phrase "big fucking claws".
Reading through the Monsterhearts 2 skin list, and one of them is basically making me shiver continuously while reading.
...So I guess I know who I want to play next game :D
...ahaha, one of the Backstories you can pick for The Witch says simply "tumblr".
@starkatt Definitely can endorse. Extremely emotionally powerful game.
@starkatt "Monsterheats" is probably entertaining but a way different game. :-P
@emanate ... dammit :p
@starkatt Oooh, I've been wanting to give this game a try for a loooong time.
@starkatt And did you see the setting one-pagers? https://buriedwithoutceremonyblog.files.wordpress.com/2017/01/monsterhearts-2-small-towns1.pdf
@starkatt ...TWO of them (out of 8) are in New Mexico. :D
@indi :D I hadn't read that far yet!
I got to play the original MH, it's a fantastic loom to weave stories on. MH2 has a great pedigree! :)
Correction, this should read "monsterhearts"
...not monster heats.
:s
