Immortal Festival (Single-Page Edition)

An unsavory question: would you rather decline assistance to a deity or fail Them?

There’s a faint, pleasant scent on the breeze and the word “ambrosia” on your tongue. You inhale sharply and the world seems cleaner, brighter. It’s early morning in Mirna, and the sun rising over the water carries with it a new luster and a deep calm. From your hilltop vantage, you can see the crowd approaching the shore as it recedes and divides as if cut with a butter knife, making way for the goddess of the waters to stride ashore and into the arms of her people.

Even from here, you can sense her radiance and power, and you feel its blessing wash over your heart. A dozen of the people from the shore levitate and soar over the ocean, over the town, over you. A dazzling array of colors shine atop the buildings through every soul. A loud, booming song erupts through the air, and the most joyful cheer you’ve ever felt crosses the hills and rolls across the land. The Festival has begun.

IMMORTAL FESTIVAL is a short-form, system-neutral adventure generator, designed to answer the question, "If everyone had holy powers, who would do all the boring stuff?" You, obviously!

This is a reenvisioning of an 8-page zine I released earlier this year, dissected and condensed with scissors and glue for inclusion in the Tiny Tome single-page RPG jam. The PDF in its current form is NOT screen-reader friendly, for which I sincerely apologize! Before the end of the jam, I hope to run it through a much fancier scanner and do some OCR magic, but for now, your best bet for accessibility will be to check out the original zine, which should play nice with text-scanning software.

Use your wild and randomly-generated powers to get the party back on track. Do a favor for a god! Play a prank on a devil! Reap the benefits? Time flies, teleports, and talks with plants, but it doesn't stand still. Use the next 24 hours to the fullest as you explore... the IMMORTAL FESTIVAL!
