Read this first: What are Spirit Clown Offerings?
RPG Rituals
RPG Rituals are playspaces of inner transformation and/or external practicing where the “character” and “player” are one – you are playing with your own ego/persona within the framework, mechanics, and setting of the game.
January – March 2027 RPG Ritual: Kinaban
Dates & Times:
Wednesdays
6-8pm
Jan 6 – Mar 24
The Story:
You are part of a team of ordinary humans that fall asleep in your world only to awaken in Kinaban, the hub of the multiverse, the interdimensional centre. Your ability to cross worlds marks you as Kin and you are put through a series of trials and tests to determine your unique affinities and powers. Freshly initiated, you are then tasked to solve a mystery that spans several worlds, reminding you of tales ranging from high fantasy to cyberpunk.
Game Mechanics:
Modified/homebrewed Cypher System.
Ritual Intentions:
This is a 3-month long weekly campaign of inner transformation that encourages you to discover sources of strength within yourself and/or different spirit realms (Will, Fate, Nature, Technology, Underworld, and Upperworld) while confronting various examples of systemic oppression.
Group Size:
3-6 participants
Lukayo’s Backstory
I’ve been playing Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) since 1998 and then branched out to other tabletop roleplaying games (TTRPG) and live action roleplaying (LARP) systems in 2003. I first started as a Game Master / Dungeon Master (GM/DM) in 2015. In 2019, my journey as a professional GM began while also designing my own TTRPGs and LARP games based on the concept of games-as-ritual and being a spirit clown. Nowadays I’m most familiar with the Cypher System, Powered by the Apocalypse (PbtA), and Kids on Bikes/Brooms. I’m looking forward to running more games using the mechanics and settings of DIE RPG and Urban Shadows.

Requirements
All sessions are currently entirely online. You will need a functional Internet connection, microphone, and webcam. It would be helpful to be in an area where you have 2-3 hours uninterrupted time.
You will also need to be able to access the website Jitsi, which is our main meeting platform. Our backup platform is Discord, though I am open to shifting to other free online platforms based on the access needs of participants.
