What it is about

A short solo storytelling RPG in thirty-six words, for the 36 Word RPG Jam . Choose your goal, then roll 8d6 repeatedly and write sentences with words of those lengths. A roll of 28 or greater means that a positive thing happens (to be interpreted as you will), and less than 28 means... something not as positive happens. When your total is even, tick off a point; when you get to 12 points, that's the end, so try to wind your story up then. You can combine words together for dice rolls (so a ⚅ could be used for the word "bright", or for "my arms", or anything similar). Try playing in a notebook, or on social media, or at the top of a mountain. May your stories always find positive endings.
