Sanguinea is a 3-player RPG about some kind of relationship, be it platonic, romantic, or symbiotic. One player will be steadfast and caring, one transactional and impactful, and one beautiful and doomed.
Content Warning: Sanguinea is written and named after snowplant, a parasitic plant that can only survive with certain mycorrhizal fungi. As such, the game is centered around themes of codependence, and unstable relationships. Stories told using this game are also predisposed to involve character loss, grief, and death. Be aware of your own sensitivity to these issues, as well as those of your fellow players, and use appropriate safety tools. If you are unaware of common safety tools in TTRPGs, feel free to consult Kienna Shaw and Lauren Bryant-Monk's compilation of safety tools here: bit.ly/ttrpgsafetytoolkit.Somewhere, somehow, the three of you became interlinked. Something is true about each of you:
The Rhizome is steadfast, constant, and unmoved.
The Mycor is driving, changing, and transactional.
The Sanguine is fleeting, beautiful, and doomed. The three of you are deeply intertwined, locked together in this dance. You might or might not know it yet, but something else is true: The Sanguine will not survive the Spring.
You, the players, will embody these roles, determine how you all came to be so closely connected, why each of you cannot live without the other, and how the Sanguine is doomed. Throughout play, you all will explore how your relationship changes and grows, even as the Sanguine withers.
