This game is very fun and elaborate, I like how many possibilities are there in this game for the player to imagine and tell their own stories. Tbh, in my own game, my character openly walks around as a beast in public without a care in the world (I kept rolling a 5 for difficulty because of my own damn luck) and obsessed with stealing food. My beast saw the superpowers and instantly gave up any need for humanity.
I'm glad you like it! What animal did your beast appeared like?
A tall but slender monster that is made up of plants, but looks like a topiary of a deer. It has huge interlocking antlers that is capable of ancient magic that bends reality around it. Foxgloves and other poisonous flowers grow around the antlers. Might or might not be eating various things in its environment by growing around and absorbing them.
That is at the same time extremely beautiful and terrifying. I love it!
