You stand on the bowl as you struggle to pull yourself up. On top of the window sil, a large spider rushes your face. In a fear response, you land in the bowl and fall back against the stall door, causing 10 points of damage and lowering your charisma for 5 turns until the water dries off.
Pulling yourself up to the window, you look out into a dingy, dirty alley. Nothing seems out of the ordinary. Piles of trash, a clang of a metal can falling, the scurrying of small, dark creatures. Unremarkable. Perhaps, TOO unremarkable?
Your guilt stops you from going through with it, especially because of the neighbor's dog which you dogsit occasionally. Who else buys it those fancy treats? (actually 5 more people in the building, but you don't know that)
You hear a conversation outside the door, do you listen in?
Can we do Pathfinder instead? There are a lot of canonically sapphic relationships among the goddesses, and then there's also a random man who essentially became a god as a drunken dare gone too far and he's still just a really chill guy
I check the stalls for treasure
You find three new diseases.
There's a hard to reach window. Do you want to try to exit through it?
I poke my head out the window

DMs kinda have to pull a lot of punches in reality 😉 sometimes we like to let loose on the internet
Hey, I didn't say you got infected, you don't know if it might be vials until you ask
I'm not the one who got infected, I was a bystander in the thread.
... That you know of
I've been through far too much recently. I decided to end it all. I kill myself.

I listen in
They start screaming very loudly. You stagger away from the door and it's gonna take a minute to hear normally again.
You brought a bag earlier. Look in it?

Yes! And the company is unionized and way less shit on every metric than hasbro and wotc.
Three of the main good-aligned goddesses are in a sapphic throuple! Also the system just feels better to play, imo
My first TTRPG character was a Caydenite! =D
