Wishers, Theurgists, and Fatalists: A Self-Aware RPG

[brynndragon]

The Jewel of All Desires, which contains the Great Maker and thus has the power to create the world you desire, has disappeared. You are part of a group of Wishers (who share the world as it could be), Theurgists (who forge the truth of the world), and Fatalists (who know all that is, was, and will be), and. . .

I almost quoted that exact bit in my post, but trying to summarize WTF was more entertaining to me. Almost as much as trying to figure out which of the three types each of my friends are ;P.

Now, when you say 'self-aware', do you mean that the RPG itself has sentience, and is aware of being played? 'cause that'd be cool and creepy and make me REALLY not want to read the rules, because I would feel a bit odd being the substrate which a big, sentient RPG was inhabiting.

Been skimming through this tonight and...WOW.

I don't think I know enough people who could pull this off who all exist in one place.
