Like Real People Do
"I had a thought, dearHowever scaryAbout that nightThe bugs and the dirt Why were you digging?What did you buryBefore those hands pulled meFrom the earth? I will not ask you where you came fromI will not ask you, neither should you" - "Like Real People Do," Hozier Like Real People Do is a two player TTRPG about a mage with a secret and the living vault that they create to keep it safe. ***** Like Real People Do was inspired by both the Hozier song of the same name and the concept of a Living Secret from Spire by Grant Howitt and Chris Taylor and was written for "That Reminds Me of a Song" Jam. It is a rules light, narrative heavy game, played over a series of prompt based scenes as the Mage strives to keep the Vault, and their secret, safe and the Vault wrestles with the yearning to become human.
