You will need 3-5 players, paper, pencil, eraser, and dice.
Draw a simple cloak. From the group, choose a wearer and an illustrator. Everyone else is the chorus.
The illustrator rolls a prompt, and alters the cloak's drawing accordingly. Afterwards, the chorus answers the first question, and the wearer the second. Choose a chorus member to be the next illustrator, and keep going.
1: ADDITION.
- What purpose do the additions serve?
- Why were the changes needed?
2: DAMAGE.
- How was the cloak damaged?
- Does this change the cloak's use?
3: WEAR & TEAR.
- How has the cloak endured strain over time?
- What stresses have been put upon the cloak?
4: AESTHETICS.
- Why was the cloak's appearance altered?
- How does the wearer now perceive themselves?
5: RECORD.
- Who marked the cloak?
- Does the wearer know of this record?
6: INHERITANCE.
- How did the wearer part from their cloak?
- Who is the new wearer?
When INHERITANCE is rolled, the old wearer chooses a new wearer from the chorus, and then becomes the next illustrator.
After every player has worn the cloak, the game is over.
Note: this doesn't be played with a cloak. Try a sword, a crown, or a hand.
You can use this to create items of significance for your other games.
