Becoming The Villain

“The road to hell is paved with good intentions.” 

Becoming The Villain is a solo or multiplayer tabletop roleplaying game for players who love character, choices and storytelling. Create characters, and give them hopes, dreams, and ambitions. Use Tarot cards to see how their story unfolds and  Become The Villain!

                                                                                                                                                                                             

Becoming The Villain is a game that asks questions about what makes a person who they are and examines how noble intentions can lead to ruin.

Here, you will create interesting stories and rich characters by responding to prompts generated by drawing from a deck of Tarot cards. You will guide your character through a series of events, as dictated by the cards, and decide how your character might respond to the situations. Some of the situations are positive, others not so.

As your character navigates their story they may face great adversity and enemies, fall in love, fail, grieve, triumph, and more. All the while, they will be shaped by their experiences and the world around them will be shaped by their choices.

Though it was originally conceived as a way to generate interesting villains and non-player- characters (NPCs) for tabletop roleplaying games, there are multiple ways of using the system, all of which are valid. Some of these play methods are suggested in the book, but you, dear reader, should feel free to interpret and use this system however you see fit. It is, after all, your story.

All you need is an open mind, creativity, and a sense of adventure.
