Spirituality meets TTRPGs | Personal Growth Game | Nerd Circle

About the adventure

This game is unlike any other game in this platform. Here we meet to play a story together, like in any game, but we also gather to go deep into ourselves and work in our self-development. Using fantasy and imagination, we venture into a story that will reflect our own soul, fears, challenges, and personal growth. This is where meditation, spirituality, group therapy and TTRPGs meet. It's an experiment—as far as I know, this hasn't been done before—but I'm willing to give my best to lead this adventure to its full potential. On top of my experience as a GM, I'm a Buddhist and shamanic practitioner, a life coach and counselor, Jungian therapist, and I've run meditation courses, retreats, and rituals. I bring all this to the table to lead a game where we all grow alongside our characters. I offer a safe space where vulnerability is welcome. As in a women/men circle, in this "nerd" circle we meet to share how we're feeling, what is working and what isn't in our lives at the moment, and bring to the group whatever feels appropriate and comfortable. These inputs feed into the world of our characters. We play a fantasy story, as we've always done, but in a way that in-game events help us reflect on whatever we want to work on. Sessions start with a guided meditation to set the tone and intention, followed by a round of sharing. Having activated openness and trust, we enter together the realm of fantasy, where our characters face their own challenges, which mirror ours. We play, have fun, and enjoy as always, letting symbolism and serendipia do their magic and help us find the correlates between in-game events and real life lessons. Finally, we close with gratitude and personal takeaways. Again, this is an experiment—I cannot guarantee it will work. But if you're brave enough, and you also exist in this overlap of interests—TTRPGs and spirituality—join the game and let's make history together. 🎲 THE SYSTEM 🎲 Arcanum Sublime is a system designed to fulfill the needs of narrative-driven games with a strong emphasis on introspection, destiny, growth, ethics, virtues, trauma, and much more. It is very intuitive, easy to learn and to use, and AWESOME 👌 (disclosure: I created it)
