Dweller Among the Dead
Dweller Among the Dead is a self-guided single-player ttrpg about the experience of apostasy in a religious or otherwise tradition-bound community. You are of the Liminal People, descended from refugees of the ancient Dead City, now resident of the City of the Dead. Your every breath and step must mediate the space between the living and the dead. Life is ritual. Care is paramount. Or so you have been taught. Dweller Among the Dead does not directly reference any actual existing world religions. With 25 words by mnemotode and 12 by MemoriousTulpa.
