completely random notion, rp, horror media adjacent, self-directed ableist language 

You know what I'd be 100% in the perfect mood for this week?

A giallo* TTRPG. Something really garish and bloody and decadent that doesn't take itself too seriously. Something that gives my Inner Nutcase an excuse to get stabby and melodramatic in a harmless padded environment.

Ooh. Even better, base it in the Over The Edge RPG. Al Amarja is already canonically set just south of Sicily. It's probably the closest thing to a giallo RPG ever made.

Shit. If I had any faith I'd have the energy for this in the coming months, I'd be tempted to RUN something like this. I know there aren't a lot of horror fans here... and I'd need months to give myself a good enough refresher on giallo to write a good adventure, but...

Would anyone actually join me for this madness, maybe even help co-GM? I know I sure have a lot of Stabby saved up from the last four years, and I would love to offer some valid targets for it.

(I promise you a LOATHESOME antagonist. I already have ideas.)

*a genre of vivid, stylish Italian shock-thrillers from the 70s
