Eight Lives

You met at the dawn of time, in the days of lush jungles, when cats ruled the world and huddled people trembled in their caves. Maybe it was love, friendship, or something only cats would understand. You were separated by the end of your first life. You’ve been traveling through time and space ever since, hoping to meet again. And as you rest in Cat’s Dream, a heavenly realm between lives, you send each other letters through cat courier souls to show that you haven’t forgotten. You have eight lives to find each other.

Eight Lives is a letter-writing role-playing game about two souls trying to find each other as they journey through the ages. Requires two participants, dice (d20), and writing materials (paper, pencil, pen, word processor, e-mail, etc.) to play it. Alternatively, you can use voice recording software or websites.

Triggers: death

Eight Lives was also published on Fast Forward Jam (29 July 2023) in slightly different form and adapted to rules of One-Page Jam.
