\u2663 Overview<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Mystic Lilies<\/strong><\/span> is a roleplaying game about vengeful witches<\/span> and dark manipulation<\/span><\/strong>. It’s inspired in part by Monsterhearts<\/span><\/em>, Touhou Project<\/em><\/span>, Bayonetta<\/span><\/em>, and Madoka Magica<\/em>,<\/span> as well as many other tales of magical drama. In a sealed-off region full of fantastical phenomena, the land is falling out of balance. You will play to find what people take and what people lose to regain that balance.<\/p>\n

Mystic Lilies uses a deck of standard playing cards for resolving conflicts and casting spells. Each suit is linked to a different stat: \u2663Instinct<\/strong><\/span>, \u2660Logic<\/strong><\/span>, \u2665Will<\/strong><\/span>,and \u2666Special<\/strong><\/span> – a stat that changes for each character. Players use cards to cast spells, overcome obstacles, and clash with other characters. Choose your cards wisely.<\/p>\n

\u2665 Social Drama
\n<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Mystic Lilies is a game about social conflict<\/strong><\/span>. The stories it tells are not about characters working together – they are stories about flawed, emotional, and impulsive characters and the drama they create between each other. There will be sad endings – don\u2019t flinch from them. Enjoy the drama, watch your characters change, and play to see how the story unfolds.<\/p>\n

Characters in Mystic Lilies are made to cause drama.<\/strong><\/span> Use magic to shapeshift, possess non-player characters, and hunt people down – even into their dreams. When you’re down on your luck and looking for revenge, it’s time to up the ante with your Incident – a game-changing, slow-burn spell that drives the story to a climax. Will the other player characters stop you in time?<\/p>\n
