Legends, or the Lack Thereof

Made for Folklore Jam 2024, using Grant Howitt and Chris Taylor's "The Resistance Toolbox" SRD.

This game isn't actually complete! I'm going to continue updating it. 

A game about the gradual decay of stories and information over time as details are lost, added, and changed. In real life, this process is a result of the natural course of history. Sources are damaged, different figures are conflated and turned into one story, people make variations on the original and it becomes impossible to tell what came first. This game attributes all of these changes to the actions of your characters and, especially, the rolls you make. It turns the loss of a story into a consequence, in the same way you lose health in other games. As this decay happens, the canon of your game itself decays as well, because your game is the legend. Your Legend, your story, will always be changed, it can never remain constant. Things can only get worse from here, and things will get worse, until the Legend you’ve built is nothing but… well, a legend. What are you willing to lose to be immortalized, and what’s worth keeping?
