Thieves of the Tome / Otsuka RPG Day

Please message me if you RSVP to this game so we can talk about what you need to bring! (if I can't contact you I will have to remove you...)
Thieves of the Tome is an RPG played with real books. You will bring a book from your shelf and turn it into a spellbook for another player to cast from. The GM will bring a book for you to dive into, shaping the world around you and the obstacles in your way.

It is a story repeated across the 8,888,888,888 Tomes that consist reality — The White Guard hoards the Tomes that give them access to great power and gathered them in a Library of Na'zar. Eventually, a group of (dubiously) competent people learn about them and decide, "hell, I ought to take some of this power for myself. These emboldened sorts are our thieves, a group of criminals that conclude it is their lot to break into the Libraries of Na'zar and take some of the magical goodness within for themselves. The Players in this game will portray the thieves, and we will follow their journey to escape from the White Guard with their newfound power, and hopefully lives, intact.

This game is high in collaboration, improvisation and wordplay. As mentioned before, to play in this game you have to bring a book with you! It can be of any genre but bring something that you find exciting to turn into a spellbook (books that are primarily nsfw are not allowed, this is an open table in a public venue). Because this game requires you to bring materials to play, I am requesting you message me so I can make sure you have something.

In addition to a book of your choice, please bring a pencil and eraser. The system uses d6s but I will have enough for everyone so you don't have to bring your own.
