Slasher

Together, pick a setting. Rumors say a relentless, cunning, nigh-invincible killer lurks there, leaving their victims unrecognizable — expound.

Decide who you’ll portray. Why’d you ignore those rumors? Are you attractive? Affluent? Savvy? Why won’t that save you?

Agree on a relationship (teammates, stepsisters, ex-lovers, etc.) with the players on your immediate left and right, separately. How’d you meet?

When everyone’s ready, take turns rolling a six-sided die, adding the result to your individual running total, and setting a scene to answer the appropriate question below. You describe what happens; others may participate, but excluding safety mechanisms like X-Cards, you’re in control.

TotalScene
1Who last saw you before you arrived?
2What reinforces your initial excitement?
3Who are you unhappy to see?
4What vice do you tempt others with?
5Who’s just being paranoid?
6Why can’t you leave?
7What does glimpsing the killer reveal?
8Who do you actually love?
9Why are you alone now?
10What mistake seals your fate?
11+How do you die? (Skip your future turns)

If you’re last alive, roll one final time:

TotalScene
1–10You kill the killer. How?
11+You barely escape. How?
