Hi everyone. looking for 3 players for a GMless story game named "Polaris". It's intended to be played over a few casual meetings, and requires very minimal preparation as most of it is improvised. The game defines itself as a tragedy, and uses a unique system to achieve that. Each player is assigned a narrative role(protagonist, antagonist and side characters) relative to the rest of the players(so everyone plays everything), and negotiates, speaks and plays in behalf of its part. The system uses minimal chance mechanics common in TRPGies( like dice, cards, jenga towers , etc) and favors mostly a key-phrases based negotiation between players over the details of the story, as well as lots of freeform playing. This results in a structured collaborative story crafting but also leaves room for drama. The game is set in a vague, dark fantasy setting, with an implied mythology. It's set at the far north, wherein a dying civilization of people lives, and suffers every hot season from a relentless attack of demons. the protagonists of the story are protectors of the people, "knights of the order of the stars", who are the only thing keeping their civilization from dying, but are also the very thing the will bring its demise. Game material will be supplied (but buying it is encouraged~) so everyone wanting to try this out are welcomed. I'm GMT +2/3, but am currently very flexible, and the game is really spontaneous in nature too, so people from around the globe are welcomed as well (we might find a sweet spot in our schedules). video/voice vs text based is left for a group decision.
