What it is about

You are a young adult, and life is miserable... But something wants to change that... Something ANCIENT. Something ENDLESS. It's called The Dream. You read about it somewhere. You think? You access it by performing The Ritual. The Ritual brings you to an unseen world, formed from the memories of the living, the dead, and the yet-to-be born. It requires others. Friends, like-minded individuals, strangers, the dream accepts all. It requires FIRE as does all true magic. Above all else, it demands SACRIFICE. It intersects our world. You can influence it. Control it. There is power here, for those brave enough to seek it. It whispers. It asks you. Are you brave enough to Dream? Ashes to Ashes is a ritualistic tabletop game  designed for 1 - 6 players. Inspired by classic slumber party games such as Truth Or Dare, the ritual is best performed  at the edge of a campfire  during crisp fall nights, ideally on dates surrounding the autumnal equinox. You control of a group of teenagers, be they imagined characters,  or representations of yourself. Life is hard, and your sense of self is constantly  changing, crumbling like the city that surrounds you. But you carry within you a Wish; an inner hope of something better. Manifest those facets of your personality into a Sigil. Hold onto what you most desire, and cast all that you wish to leave behind  into the  Eternal Flame. Will you control the Dream, or will it control you?
