= '''Backstory''' =

Arnet Leeds was born to a family of retro-engineers who came to Spire when he was a baby; he's known nothing else. He was part of the Brazacott Technical Institute, using his moderate knowledge to develop new technologies and figure out arcane connections between them, but it really seemed easier to use his talents to embezzle large sums of money through false work orders, skimming parts off of shipments, and doing black-market work on the side. Until he got caught.

Brazzacot's masters were not amused at the loss of resources, but they were impressed by Arnet's skills. They implanted a one-directional fragment of their crystal Intelligence network, allowing them to send him messages but not allowing him to tap into the network, and sent him into the Heart to gather rare goods, technological wonders, and whatever else might pay off his truly massive debt. Arnet would like nothing more than to tell them to sod off, but he's concerned that they can probably track him through the crystal and maybe possibly make it explode inside his head. He's really not sure. He's not sure that they're sure. Better not to force the issue.

But this job! This job could be the one that gets Arnet clear once and for all - or that finds him a way to burn that stupid crystal out of his brain without, you know, burning his brain out of his brain.

''Recently, you and another character returned from a delve with an item for a wealthy patron. They wouldn’t give it up – why, and what was it?''

Greyson and Arnet did a job together, acquiring an interesting piece of Heart-tainted technology for a wealthy patron working for one of the many factions plotting in the Spire, but Arnet convinced Greyson to claim to the patron that they could not acquire it, and then quietly give the item to the Brazzacot Institute instead.

'''Yazeba's Bed and Breakfast - a Legacy Campaign'''

''Once upon a time, the world was cruel, and there was a witch who knew it well. And so, she sold her heart away and built a house in the woods where the world could never find her.

At first she would let no one into her fortress. But in the long march of days, a strange thing happened: in her own cold and spiteful way, the witch made a friend… and then another… and then several more, until her house was teeming with colorful faces and complicated lives.

The house would come to be known as Yazeba’s Bed & Breakfast, and it would last for a very long time.''

'''The Residents'''
* [[YazebasPbP/Gertrude | Gertrude]]: A teenage girl who ran away from home, and currently sleeps atop the dryer in the laundry room. She is kind and insecure, quiet and capable beyond expectations.
* [[YazebasPbP/Sal | Sal]]: A weary young adult who once studied to be Yazeba’s apprentice, before leaving magic behind. Now he works as the night porter, but hopes to someday become a rockstar — although it’s not clear how he’s going to get there.
* [[YazebasPbP/HeyKid | Hey Kid]]: Abandoned on the front door as a baby, they grew up amid the chaos of the Bed & Breakfast. Now they’re a delightfully rambunctious devil-child, who causes disaster wherever they go.
* [[YazebasPbP/Parish | Parish]]: Once a gallant knight, cursed by a wicked wizard to take the form of a frog. Now he’s the Bed & Breakfast’s head (and only) cook, but he’s still a courageous hero at heart.
* [[YazebasPbP/Amelie | Amelie]]: A robotic maid acquired by the Bed & Breakfast. They are the meticulous housekeeper constantly struggling (and failing) to keep the Bed & Breakfast tidy. They’re still parsing out who they’re supposed to be.
* [[YazebasPbP/Yazeba | Yazeba]]: The Witch, who traded her heart for the Bed & Breakfast, not that that's any of your business.
-----
'''The Guests'''

* [[YazebasPbP/Muckleby | Muckleby]]: A huge glob of grime that uses she/her pronouns.
* [[YazebasPbP/Rabbits | The Rabbits In The Garden Who Wear Little Outfits]]: A warren of sentient bunnies who use a variety of pronouns.

* [[YazebasPbP/Percy | Percival ("Percy") Combustion]]: An enormous, apologetic lava elemental who uses he/him or they/them pronouns.

* T.H.E.M.: A huge enormous fuzzy monster who uses they/them pronouns.

''Some guests are literal guests, while others are employees of the Bed & Breakfast who come and go. They are not at the centre of the B&B and its stories; they've got their own things going on.''

'''Basic Rules'''
Each character has their own sheet; players can and should shift between characters between chapters. Each character also has an Identity and some facts about themselves, as well as '''Bingos''' and '''Whoopsies.''' By default, these are moments when they are at their best, or at their worst. Many chapters have special rules for when or how you can do these actions.

Each Resident and most Guests also have a Journey - the thing that they're doing - which they advance in unique ways according to their sheet. Most Journeys have their own Track or List, which get filled by extra leftover bits at the end of a Chapter. The B&B as a whole also has Tracks, Lists, and Stickers that unlock new sections of story.

Each chapter has its own special rules of play, as well as a number of Tracks and/or Lists and rules about how to fill them.

-----
'''Safety Tools'''

'''Take-Backsies:''' If you have an idea and then realize later that you don't like it and didn't want to do it, it's okay to take it back. This might involve a bit of revision, but that's okay.

'''Cooties:''' If you discover in play that something is making you uncomfortable, you can ask the other players not to include it. You don't have to explain why you don't like it.

'''Lines:''' There are things that are a flat NO, either because they make us uncomfortable or because we're just sort of tired of seeing them show up. They are:
* Sexual Assault
* Real-World Bigotry
* Suicide / Suicidal Ideation

'''Veils:''' There are things that we do NOT want described 'on screen', but it's okay if they're referred to in the game. They are:
* Animals getting hurt
* Child Abuse
* Explicit Sex
* Graphic Violence
* Historical references to suicide attempts/ideation

A [[Yazebas_Bed_and_Breakfast_PbP | Yazeba's Bed and Breakfast]] character.
-----
'''Yazeba''' 
''a witch who uses she/her pronouns''

Pick me if: You’d rather judge others’ choices than make them, it’s your house and you make the rules, someone loves her anyway.

'''Bingos:'''
* Use wisdom (instead of magic) to solve a problem.
* See something no one else could.
* Protect the Bed & Breakfast and those under its roof.
* Show kindness... of a sort.
* Share just a smidgen of magical wisdom.

'''Whoopsies:'''
* Use magic (instead of wisdom) to make everything worse.
* Boss everyone else around.
* Stay cryptic and secretive about something that matters to everyone.
* Delight in pushing everyone else away.
* Criticize someone (and call it “helping.”)

-----
'''Facts About Yazeba:'''
* Yazeba traded her heart for the Bed & Breakfast, which may explain her cold and sometimes cruel behavior. (“Not that that’s any of your business,” she’d snarl).
* Before she sold her heart, she wrote a couple of books about the magic of names. (“Neither of them particularly good—stop asking to see them!”)
* She’s always busy with “witchy business” — although she doesn’t seem to work much actual magic. (“I wouldn’t expect you to understand.”)
* She has a funny way of cursing, like, she always says “Foes afire!” or “Friends afire!” or something else that starts with F. (“It’s a curse. It’s not supposed to be funny.”)
* Her preferred vices are expensive cigars, cheap cigarettes, and dusklit rides through the sky on her enchanted bicycle. (“That’s how I distract myself from you numbskulls.”)
* Deep down, she really cares. (“Incorrect.”)

'''List of Enemies:'''
Expand and cross off this list:
* <s>The Starving King</s>
* The Mayor of Veilridge
* <s>Cacodaemon</s>
* The Tomtom
* Tony
* Rag-And-Bones
*
*
*

'''Perils of the Sharptongue'''

My esteemed hostess, my fearsome employer, and my dear friend: You can be a real stinker. Check these off whenever you’re mean to one of those people. 
[X] Gertrude 
[__] Sal 
[__] The Moon Prince 
[__] Parish (me) 
[__] A guest who deserves it 
[__] A guest who doesn’t 
[__] Someone who can take it 
[X] Someone who can’t 
[X] Yourself 
If you start a chapter and all the boxes are checked off, you will lash out at everyone around you. Use your Whoopsies often, and weigh your Bingos down with heartless spite. When the chapter ends, replace this journey with “You Okay In There?

A [[Yazebas_Bed_and_Breakfast_PbP | Yazeba's Bed and Breakfast]] character.
-----
'''Percival "Percy" Combustion''' 
''An enormous, apologetic lava elemental who uses he/him or they/them pronouns''

'''Pick me if:''' You need a handyman, it would be a shame for someone to tromp all over a delicate situation, you want to bring warmth and kindness.

'''Bingos:'''
* Produce a little gem.
* Fill someone’s heart with warmth.
* Accomplish a menial task with gusto.
* Stand up for myself and speak my mind.

'''Whoopsies:'''
* Start a fire without meaning to.
* Embarrass myself with my clumsiness.
* Apologize for something that’s not my fault.
* Laugh off my own needs.

-----
'''Three Fun Facts About Me:'''
* At 7 feet tall I’m the runt of my family — my dad’s a boiler room in the Big City and my mom is a dragon at the heart of a volcano; yet somehow they don’t mind being big like I do.
* I’ve been bouncing from job to job for years now, trying out trade skills like handyman and plumber—but I’ve never been much good at any of them.
* I’ve always wanted to become a baker, but I don’t think I’m suited for such delicate work.

-----
'''My Journey:''' 
{___}{___}{___}{___} 

At the end of each Chapter, if I had a wonderful time, spend my leftovers on the Happy Track. Whenever it fills up, erase it, I’ll write a positive review of the B&B in the guestbook and give the Bed & Breakfast a ▢ Treasure Chest.

Whenever my Track fills up, I’ll erase it all and check off a checkbox
below. 
[ ] Reconsider my pronouns 
[ ] Pick a new name 
[ ] Try out something I’ve been scared to 
[ ] Tell everyone about a new interest 
Once the checkboxes are full up, I’ll shed my pyroclastic form, become a mote of light, give the Bed & Breakfast a ▢ Jar of Fire, and leave the Bed & Breakfast. If I come back to the Bed & Breakfast, I’ll be very different from how I am now.

'''Yazeba's Bed and Breakfast - a Legacy Campaign'''

''Once upon a time, the world was cruel, and there was a witch who knew it well. And so, she sold her heart away and built a house in the woods where the world could never find her.

At first she would let no one into her fortress. But in the long march of days, a strange thing happened: in her own cold and spiteful way, the witch made a friend… and then another… and then several more, until her house was teeming with colorful faces and complicated lives.

The house would come to be known as Yazeba’s Bed & Breakfast, and it would last for a very long time.''

'''Basic Rules'''
Each character has their own sheet; players can and should shift between characters between chapters. Each character also has an Identity and some facts about themselves, as well as '''Bingos''' and '''Whoopsies.''' By default, these are moments when they are at their best, or at their worst. Many chapters have special rules for when or how you can do these actions.

Each Resident and most Guests also have a Journey - the thing that they're doing - which they advance in unique ways according to their sheet. Most Journeys have their own Track or List, which get filled by extra leftover bits at the end of a Chapter. The B&B as a whole also has Tracks, Lists, and Stickers that unlock new sections of story.

Each chapter has its own special rules of play, as well as a number of Tracks and/or Lists and rules about how to fill them.

-----
'''Safety Tools'''

'''Take-Backsies:''' If you have an idea and then realize later that you don't like it and didn't want to do it, it's okay to take it back. This might involve a bit of revision, but that's okay.

'''Cooties:''' If you discover in play that something is making you uncomfortable, you can ask the other players not to include it. You don't have to explain why you don't like it.

'''Lines:''' There are things that are a flat NO, either because they make us uncomfortable or because we're just sort of tired of seeing them show up. They are:
* Sexual Assault
* Real-World Bigotry
* Suicide / Suicidal Ideation

'''Veils:''' There are things that we do NOT want described 'on screen', but it's okay if they're referred to in the game. They are:
* Animals getting hurt
* Child Abuse
* Explicit Sex
* Graphic Violence
* Historical references to suicide attempts/ideation

* A well-worn scrimshaw kit

= '''Backstory''' =

Arnet Leeds was born to a family of retro-engineers who came to Spire when he was a baby; he's known nothing else. He was part of the Brazacott Technical Institute, using his moderate knowledge to develop new technologies and figure out arcane connections between them, but it really seemed easier to use his talents to embezzle large sums of money through false work orders, skimming parts off of shipments, and doing black-market work on the side. Until he got caught.

Brazzacot's masters were not amused at the loss of resources, but they were impressed by Arnet's skills. They implanted a one-directional fragment of their crystal Intelligence network, allowing them to send him messages but not allowing him to tap into the network, and sent him into the Heart to gather rare goods, technological wonders, and whatever else might pay off his truly massive debt. Arnet would like nothing more than to tell them to sod off, but he's concerned that they can probably track him through the crystal and maybe possibly make it explode inside his head. He's really not sure. He's not sure that they're sure. Better not to force the issue.

But this job! This job could be the one that gets Arnet clear once and for all - or that finds him a way to burn that stupid crystal out of his brain without, you know, burning his brain out of his brain.

''Recently, you and another character returned from a delve with an item for a wealthy patron. They wouldn’t give it up – why, and what was it?''

Greyson and Arnet did a job together, acquiring an interesting piece of Heart-tainted technology for a wealthy patron working for one of the many factions plotting in the Spire, but Arnet convinced Greyson to claim to the patron that they could not acquire it, and then quietly give the item to the Brazzacot Institute instead.

Answers to Questions that Rolling Bones Magazine will probably ask:
* Right now I’m a night porter at the Bed & Breakfast. I’m not 100% sure what that means but it mostly involves kickin it behind the front desk, not even necessarily at night?
* I did used to be a witch’s apprentice. I don’t really want to talk about that.
* I drive a van called ‘’The Flying V’’. She’s old and funky but she’s the love of my life.
* I’m probably the greatest rockstar the world has ever known? I’m just putting in my dues until I get my big break.
* I play guitar and sing, but I also know my way around electric basses, violins, pianos, the harmonica, the tambourine, and the jug.
* My main musical inspirations are Jacob and the Screamie Beanies, ZGG, Dåligstygg, Vivaldi, and Wormstonk. My actual inspirations, though, are my friends back home, and how beautiful the place I live is.They’re like my family to me.
* I like to think of my music as being <s>Post-Rock Prog 1st Wave Acoustic Ska Dark indiepop synth-based corewave Soft Metal bad beach muzak </s> ?????
* The main thing I want my fans to know is that there’s art in all of us. It doesn’t matter what you look like or how talented you are or if you know the right bands or whatever.

A [[Yazebas_Bed_and_Breakfast_PbP | Yazeba's Bed and Breakfast]] adventure.

'''The Fifth Chapter: How Does A Garden Grow''' 

''In which Amelie and Sal are forced to work together and plant a garden in Yazeba’s backyard.''

Amelie and Sal had both worked at the Bed & Breakfast long enough to know when Yazeba had gotten into one of her moods. The first warning sign was always Yazeba’s even further withdrawal from the daily goings-on of the Bed & Breakfast. The second warning sign was always mysterious packages containing books written in a variety of natural and unnatural languages being placed in the mailbox. And the third warning sign was always Yazeba’s cheerfulness.

A happy witch is far more dangerous than a grumpy witch.

And so, when Yazeba came whistling downstairs for the first time in weeks with a stack of books under one arm all titled such things like Barnabie Duke’s Officious Guide To Horticultural Production, Amelie and Sal knew exactly what was going on. She tossed her tomes onto the kitchen table, nearly spilling Sal’s coffee.

“Well, my dear staff, I’ve been thinking about the backyard,” Yazeba said with an artificial grin, “And I believe the garden requires some upkeep, and I figured one of you could take care of it for me.”

“Respectfully Miss Yazeba, I know exactly what to do.” Amelie whirred over, putting aside their broom for a moment.

In that same instant, Sal spoke up while leaning back in his chair. “Don’t worry ma’am, I can handle it.”

Amelie paused. Sal paused. Yazeba rolled her eyes. “Oh, so who should I choose then?”

Sal stood up with indignation. “Yazeba, I’m a creative. An artiste. Give me a plot of land and I’ll make the most beautiful garden you’ve ever seen. Look, very respectfully to Mx. Tin Can over here,” He nodded to Amelie, “But you need someone with a vision, and that’s me.”

Amelie beeped. “TIN CAN?! Miss Yazeba, this gentleman can’t be bothered to throw out yesterday’s sandwich, you expect him to maintain your garden?” Sal stammered, but Amelie cut him off. “I just downloaded 50 megabytes of the latest cutting edge botanical organization software. I can make sure your garden is perfect.”

“Very well, both of you can take care of this.” Yazeba said.

“No. Wait, yes. No!” Sal and Amelie both spoke at the same time, glaring at each other across the
coffee table.

Yazeba grinned. “You have to learn to work together sooner or later, so why not now? Wrangle some
volunteers, and put the rabbits to work. You have a garden to grow.”

Chapter Rules:

'''Frantic Mood'''

Before this Chapter starts, we’ll put a big pile of Chaos Coins where everyone can reach them. Whenever anyone wants to tick a track, they’ll consult their Chaos Coins:
* If they don’t have any Chaos Coins, they succeed right away, and take a Chaos Coin.
* If they do have Chaos Coins, they flip all of them at once, and if all the coins come up heads, they succeed! Otherwise, they don’t tick the track and must do a Whoopsie about it. Either way, they take another Chaos Coin.
Anyone can cash in five Chaos Coins to tick a track right away.

When any of us does a Bingo, they may give away all their Chaos Coins to someone else, making the
whole mess their problem. (That person shouldn’t then turn around and return the coins with a new
Bingo—no tag backs!)

'''The Dirty Work'''

Whenever a Veggie Track fills up, whoever checked it off last gets an “X”. Whenever a Flower Track fills up, whoever checked it off last gets an “O”. Take a tiny scrap of paper and draw the symbol on it. They may give these Xs and Os to whoever they please, but Amelie and Sal would like them most of all.

During this chapter, everyone has access to the following additional Bingos:
* Bring someone else a snack.
* Remind someone to put on sunscreen.
... and the following additional Whoopsies:
* Spill dirt or fertilizer everywhere.
* Step on a plant.

'''Garden Planning'''

Sal and Amelie are both trying to finagle the design of the garden. Amelie is attempting to arrange the garden in neat rows, alternating between Xs and Os. Sal is trying to play Tic Tac Toe with himself. Once the garden is completely filled up, the chapter ends. Amelie and Sal decide together how it ends, everyone drinks some lemonade, and the Bed & Breakfast gets a ▢ Dandelion Bouquet. Hold onto any leftover Chaos Coins, and leftover unplaced Xs and Os, for Housekeeping.

'''Tasty Little Snacks'''

The Rabbits in the Garden Who Wear Little Outfits are normally a helpful warren, but all the seeds and veggies and snacks flying around has them feeling a bit mischievous. The Rabbits In The Garden Who Wear Little Outfits may consult their Chaos Coins in order to steal an X or O from another player. If they succeed, they may hold onto it and consume it, ticking a Track on their Journey.

The Rabbits In The Garden Who Wear Little Outfits may also be persuaded to be helpful. They just simply don’t have to be helpful.

* Before she sold her heart, she wrote a couple of books about the magic of names. (“Neither of them particularly good—stop asking to see them!”)
* She’s always busy with “witchy business” — although she doesn’t seem to work much actual magic. (“I wouldn’t expect you to understand.”)
* She has a funny way of cursing, like, she always says “Foes afire!” or “Friends afire!” or something else that starts with F. (“It’s a curse. It’s not supposed to be funny.”)
* Her preferred vices are expensive cigars, cheap cigarettes, and dusklit rides through the sky on her enchanted bicycle. (“That’s how I distract myself from you numbskulls.”)
* Deep down, she really cares. (“Incorrect.”)

'''Yazeba's Bed and Breakfast - a Legacy Campaign'''

''Once upon a time, the world was cruel, and there was a witch who knew it well. And so, she sold her heart away and built a house in the woods where the world could never find her.

At first she would let no one into her fortress. But in the long march of days, a strange thing happened: in her own cold and spiteful way, the witch made a friend… and then another… and then several more, until her house was teeming with colorful faces and complicated lives.

The house would come to be known as Yazeba’s Bed & Breakfast, and it would last for a very long time.''

'''Basic Rules'''
Each character has their own sheet; players can and should shift between characters between chapters. Each character also has an Identity and some facts about themselves, as well as '''Bingos''' and '''Whoopsies.''' By default, these are moments when they are at their best, or at their worst. Many chapters have special rules for when or how you can do these actions.

Each Resident and most Guests also have a Journey - the thing that they're doing - which they advance in unique ways according to their sheet. Most Journeys have their own Track or List, which get filled by extra leftover bits at the end of a Chapter. The B&B as a whole also has Tracks, Lists, and Stickers that unlock new sections of story.

Each chapter has its own special rules of play, as well as a number of Tracks and/or Lists and rules about how to fill them.

-----
'''Safety Tools'''

'''Take-Backsies:''' If you have an idea and then realize later that you don't like it and didn't want to do it, it's okay to take it back. This might involve a bit of revision, but that's okay.

'''Cooties:''' If you discover in play that something is making you uncomfortable, you can ask the other players not to include it. You don't have to explain why you don't like it.

'''Lines:''' There are things that are a flat NO, either because they make us uncomfortable or because we're just sort of tired of seeing them show up. They are:
* Sexual Assault
* Real-World Bigotry
* Suicide / Suicidal Ideation

'''Veils:''' There are things that we do NOT want described 'on screen', but it's okay if they're referred to in the game. They are:
* Animals getting hurt
* Child Abuse
* Explicit Sex
* Graphic Violence
* Historical references to suicide attempts/ideation

Facts About Me: (Add to them, or cross them out when they’re no longer true)
* I’m a moody teenager.
* I don’t have a lot of friends.
* I live on top of the dryer in the laundry room ''until I can find Room 13''.
* I feel terribly insecure about my gender and appearance…
* ...so I wear a mask to hide my face.
* I am confident Yazeba doesn’t like me.
* I plan on finding somewhere else to stay eventually.

-----
'''Finding My Place'''

The Bed & Breakfast is strange & loud, and I don’t really have a place here. But maybe it’s a safe place to crash for a while? I’ll try to be helpful and keep a low profile so they don’t
kick me out. Check these off as they happen:

{__} I got a job at the B&B (____________________)
 {XX} I help out one of the guests here ( Muckleby )
 {__} I impressed one of the other residents (__________)
 {XX} I made a close friend at the B&B ( also Muckleby! )
 {__} Someone takes me under their wing (__________)
 {__} Yazeba acknowledges my efforts.

When every box is checked, a proper room appears for me in the Bed & Breakfast. Change my Facts About Me to reflect this, Unlock the “Gertrude’s Bookcase” shelf (on pg. 172) and
replace my Journey with “The Witching Path.”

'''The Fifth Chapter: How Does A Garden Grow''' 

''In which Amelie and Sal are forced to work together and plant a garden in Yazeba’s backyard.''

Amelie and Sal had both worked at the Bed & Breakfast long enough to know when Yazeba had gotten into one of her moods. The first warning sign was always Yazeba’s even further withdrawal from the daily goings-on of the Bed & Breakfast. The second warning sign was always mysterious packages containing books written in a variety of natural and unnatural languages being placed in the mailbox. And the third warning sign was always Yazeba’s cheerfulness.

A happy witch is far more dangerous than a grumpy witch.

And so, when Yazeba came whistling downstairs for the first time in weeks with a stack of books under one arm all titled such things like Barnabie Duke’s Officious Guide To Horticultural Production, Amelie and Sal knew exactly what was going on. She tossed her tomes onto the kitchen table, nearly spilling Sal’s coffee.

“Well, my dear staff, I’ve been thinking about the backyard,” Yazeba said with an artificial grin, “And I believe the garden requires some upkeep, and I figured one of you could take care of it for me.”

“Respectfully Miss Yazeba, I know exactly what to do.” Amelie whirred over, putting aside their broom for a moment.

In that same instant, Sal spoke up while leaning back in his chair. “Don’t worry ma’am, I can handle it.”

Amelie paused. Sal paused. Yazeba rolled her eyes. “Oh, so who should I choose then?”

Sal stood up with indignation. “Yazeba, I’m a creative. An artiste. Give me a plot of land and I’ll make the most beautiful garden you’ve ever seen. Look, very respectfully to Mx. Tin Can over here,” He nodded to Amelie, “But you need someone with a vision, and that’s me.”

Amelie beeped. “TIN CAN?! Miss Yazeba, this gentleman can’t be bothered to throw out yesterday’s sandwich, you expect him to maintain your garden?” Sal stammered, but Amelie cut him off. “I just downloaded 50 megabytes of the latest cutting edge botanical organization software. I can make sure your garden is perfect.”

“Very well, both of you can take care of this.” Yazeba said.

“No. Wait, yes. No!” Sal and Amelie both spoke at the same time, glaring at each other across the
coffee table.

Yazeba grinned. “You have to learn to work together sooner or later, so why not now? Wrangle some
volunteers, and put the rabbits to work. You have a garden to grow.”

Chapter Rules:

'''Frantic Mood'''

Before this Chapter starts, we’ll put a big pile of Chaos Coins where everyone can reach them. Whenever anyone wants to tick a track, they’ll consult their Chaos Coins:
* If they don’t have any Chaos Coins, they succeed right away, and take a Chaos Coin.
* If they do have Chaos Coins, they flip all of them at once, and if all the coins come up heads, they succeed! Otherwise, they don’t tick the track and must do a Whoopsie about it. Either way, they take another Chaos Coin.
Anyone can cash in five Chaos Coins to tick a track right away.

When any of us does a Bingo, they may give away all their Chaos Coins to someone else, making the
whole mess their problem. (That person shouldn’t then turn around and return the coins with a new
Bingo—no tag backs!)

'''The Dirty Work'''

Whenever a Veggie Track fills up, whoever checked it off last gets an “X”. Whenever a Flower Track fills up, whoever checked it off last gets an “O”. Take a tiny scrap of paper and draw the symbol on it. They may give these Xs and Os to whoever they please, but Amelie and Sal would like them most of all.

During this chapter, everyone has access to the following additional Bingos:
* Bring someone else a snack.
* Remind someone to put on sunscreen.
... and the following additional Whoopsies:
* Spill dirt or fertilizer everywhere.
* Step on a plant.

'''Garden Planning'''

Sal and Amelie are both trying to finagle the design of the garden. Amelie is attempting to arrange the garden in neat rows, alternating between Xs and Os. Sal is trying to play Tic Tac Toe with himself. Once the garden is completely filled up, the chapter ends. Amelie and Sal decide together how it ends, everyone drinks some lemonade, and the Bed & Breakfast gets a ▢ Dandelion Bouquet. Hold onto any leftover Chaos Coins, and leftover unplaced Xs and Os, for Housekeeping.

'''Tasty Little Snacks'''

The Rabbits in the Garden Who Wear Little Outfits are normally a helpful warren, but all the seeds and veggies and snacks flying around has them feeling a bit mischievous. The Rabbits In The Garden Who Wear Little Outfits may consult their Chaos Coins in order to steal an X or O from another player. If they succeed, they may hold onto it and consume it, ticking a Track on their Journey.

The Rabbits In The Garden Who Wear Little Outfits may also be persuaded to be helpful. They just simply don’t have to be helpful.

''Once upon a time, the world was cruel, and there was a witch who knew it well. And so, she sold her heart away and built a house in the woods where the world could never find her.

At first she would let no one into her fortress. But in the long march of days, a strange thing happened: in her own cold and spiteful way, the witch made a friend… and then another… and then several more, until her house was teeming with colorful faces and complicated lives.

The house would come to be known as Yazeba’s Bed & Breakfast, and it would last for a very long time.''

* [[YazebasPbP/Amelie | Amelie]]: A robotic maid acquired by the Bed & Breakfast. They are the meticulous housekeeper constantly struggling (and failing) to keep the Bed & Breakfast tidy. They’re still parsing out who they’re supposed to be.

'''Basic Rules'''
Each character has their own sheet; players can and should shift between characters between chapters. Each character also has an Identity and some facts about themselves, as well as '''Bingos''' and '''Whoopsies.''' By default, these are moments when they are at their best, or at their worst. Many chapters have special rules for when or how you can do these actions.

Each Resident and most Guests also have a Journey - the thing that they're doing - which they advance in unique ways according to their sheet. Most Journeys have their own Track or List, which get filled by extra leftover bits at the end of a Chapter. The B&B as a whole also has Tracks, Lists, and Stickers that unlock new sections of story.

Each chapter has its own special rules of play, as well as a number of Tracks and/or Lists and rules about how to fill them.

-----
'''Safety Tools'''

'''Take-Backsies:''' If you have an idea and then realize later that you don't like it and didn't want to do it, it's okay to take it back. This might involve a bit of revision, but that's okay.

'''Cooties:''' If you discover in play that something is making you uncomfortable, you can ask the other players not to include it. You don't have to explain why you don't like it.

'''Lines:''' There are things that are a flat NO, either because they make us uncomfortable or because we're just sort of tired of seeing them show up. They are:
* Sexual Assault
* Real-World Bigotry
* Suicide / Suicidal Ideation

'''Veils:''' There are things that we do NOT want described 'on screen', but it's okay if they're referred to in the game. They are:
* Animals getting hurt
* Child Abuse
* Explicit Sex
* Graphic Violence
* Historical references to suicide attempts/ideation

At first she would let no one into her fortress. But in the long march of days, a strange thing happened: in her own cold and spiteful way, the witch made a friend… and then another… and then several more, until her house was teeming with colorful faces and complicated lives.

The house would come to be known as Yazeba’s Bed & Breakfast, and it would last for a very long time.''

'''Basic Rules'''
Each character has their own sheet; players can and should shift between characters between chapters. Each character also has an Identity and some facts about themselves, as well as '''Bingos''' and '''Whoopsies.''' By default, these are moments when they are at their best, or at their worst. Many chapters have special rules for when or how you can do these actions.

Each Resident and most Guests also have a Journey - the thing that they're doing - which they advance in unique ways according to their sheet. Most Journeys have their own Track or List, which get filled by extra leftover bits at the end of a Chapter. The B&B as a whole also has Tracks, Lists, and Stickers that unlock new sections of story.

Each chapter has its own special rules of play, as well as a number of Tracks and/or Lists and rules about how to fill them.

-----
'''Safety Tools'''

'''Take-Backsies:''' If you have an idea and then realize later that you don't like it and didn't want to do it, it's okay to take it back. This might involve a bit of revision, but that's okay.

'''Cooties:''' If you discover in play that something is making you uncomfortable, you can ask the other players not to include it. You don't have to explain why you don't like it.

'''Lines:''' There are things that are a flat NO, either because they make us uncomfortable or because we're just sort of tired of seeing them show up. They are:
* Sexual Assault
* Real-World Bigotry
* Suicide / Suicidal Ideation

'''Veils:''' There are things that we do NOT want described 'on screen', but it's okay if they're referred to in the game. They are:
* Animals getting hurt
* Child Abuse
* Explicit Sex
* Graphic Violence
* Historical references to suicide attempts/ideation

''Once upon a time, the world was cruel, and there was a witch who knew it well. And so, she sold her heart away and built a house in the woods where the world could never find her.

At first she would let no one into her fortress. But in the long march of days, a strange thing happened: in her own cold and spiteful way, the witch made a friend… and then another… and then several more, until her house was teeming with colorful faces and complicated lives.

The house would come to be known as Yazeba’s Bed & Breakfast, and it would last for a very long time.''

'''The Residents'''
* [[YazebasPbP/Gertrude | Gertrude]]: A teenage girl who ran away from home, and currently sleeps atop the dryer in the laundry room. She is kind and insecure, quiet and capable beyond expectations.
* [[YazebasPbP/Sal | Sal]]: A weary young adult who once studied to be Yazeba’s apprentice, before leaving magic behind. Now he works as the night porter, but hopes to someday become a rockstar — although it’s not clear how he’s going to get there.
* [[YazebasPbP/HeyKid | Hey Kid]]: Abandoned on the front door as a baby, they grew up amid the chaos of the Bed & Breakfast. Now they’re a delightfully rambunctious devil-child, who causes disaster wherever they go.
* [[YazebasPbP/Parish | Parish]]: Once a gallant knight, cursed by a wicked wizard to take the form of a frog. Now he’s the Bed & Breakfast’s head (and only) cook, but he’s still a courageous hero at heart.
* [[YazebasPbP/Amelie | Amelie]]: A robotic maid acquired by the Bed & Breakfast. They are the meticulous housekeeper constantly struggling (and failing) to keep the Bed & Breakfast tidy. They’re still parsing out who they’re supposed to be.

(note: There is at least one other resident, the witch Yazeba herself. But she is currently far too busy with witchy business to show up here...)
-----
'''The Guests'''

* [[YazebasPbP/Muckleby | Muckleby]]: A huge glob of grime that uses she/her pronouns.
* [[YazebasPbP/Rabbits | The Rabbits In The Garden Who Wear Little Outfits]]: A warren of sentient bunnies who use a variety of pronouns.
* [[YazebasPbP/Crookneck | Crookneck the Pumpkin Boy]]: a silent scarecrow on a stick who uses he/him pronouns
* Monday: A fairy dream merchant who uses they/them pronouns.
* Grackle McFran: A curmudgeonly goblinoid crow in the garden’s toolshed, who uses any pronouns.
* Rag-And-Bones: A particularly unpleasant skeleton who uses he/him pronouns.
* Yola Oleander: A very old shrub spirit who uses she/her pronouns.
* Mr. Boggs: A businessman cursed with a soggy disposition who uses he/him pronouns.
* T.H.E.M.: A huge enormous fuzzy monster who uses they/them pronouns.

''Some guests are literal guests, while others are employees of the Bed & Breakfast who come and go. They are not at the centre of the B&B and its stories; they've got their own things going on.''

'''Basic Rules'''
Each character has their own sheet; players can and should shift between characters between chapters. Each character also has an Identity and some facts about themselves, as well as '''Bingos''' and '''Whoopsies.''' By default, these are moments when they are at their best, or at their worst. Many chapters have special rules for when or how you can do these actions.

Each Resident and most Guests also have a Journey - the thing that they're doing - which they advance in unique ways according to their sheet. Most Journeys have their own Track or List, which get filled by extra leftover bits at the end of a Chapter. The B&B as a whole also has Tracks, Lists, and Stickers that unlock new sections of story.

Each chapter has its own special rules of play, as well as a number of Tracks and/or Lists and rules about how to fill them.

-----
'''Safety Tools'''

'''Take-Backsies:''' If you have an idea and then realize later that you don't like it and didn't want to do it, it's okay to take it back. This might involve a bit of revision, but that's okay.

'''Cooties:''' If you discover in play that something is making you uncomfortable, you can ask the other players not to include it. You don't have to explain why you don't like it.

'''Lines:''' There are things that are a flat NO, either because they make us uncomfortable or because we're just sort of tired of seeing them show up. They are:
* Sexual Assault
* Real-World Bigotry
* Suicide / Suicidal Ideation

'''Veils:''' There are things that we do NOT want described 'on screen', but it's okay if they're referred to in the game. They are:
* Animals getting hurt
* Child Abuse
* Explicit Sex
* Graphic Violence
* Historical references to suicide attempts/ideation

'''The Fifth Chapter: How Does A Garden Grow''' 

''In which Amelie and Sal are forced to work together and plant a garden in Yazeba’s backyard.''

Amelie and Sal had both worked at the Bed & Breakfast long enough to know when Yazeba had gotten into one of her moods. The first warning sign was always Yazeba’s even further withdrawal from the daily goings-on of the Bed & Breakfast. The second warning sign was always mysterious packages containing books written in a variety of natural and unnatural languages being placed in the mailbox. And the third warning sign was always Yazeba’s cheerfulness.

A happy witch is far more dangerous than a grumpy witch.

And so, when Yazeba came whistling downstairs for the first time in weeks with a stack of books under one arm all titled such things like Barnabie Duke’s Officious Guide To Horticultural Production, Amelie and Sal knew exactly what was going on. She tossed her tomes onto the kitchen table, nearly spilling Sal’s coffee.

“Well, my dear staff, I’ve been thinking about the backyard,” Yazeba said with an artificial grin, “And I believe the garden requires some upkeep, and I figured one of you could take care of it for me.”

“Respectfully Miss Yazeba, I know exactly what to do.” Amelie whirred over, putting aside their broom for a moment.

In that same instant, Sal spoke up while leaning back in his chair. “Don’t worry ma’am, I can handle it.”

Amelie paused. Sal paused. Yazeba rolled her eyes. “Oh, so who should I choose then?”

Sal stood up with indignation. “Yazeba, I’m a creative. An artiste. Give me a plot of land and I’ll make the most beautiful garden you’ve ever seen. Look, very respectfully to Mx. Tin Can over here,” He nodded to Amelie, “But you need someone with a vision, and that’s me.”

Amelie beeped. “TIN CAN?! Miss Yazeba, this gentleman can’t be bothered to throw out yesterday’s sandwich, you expect him to maintain your garden?” Sal stammered, but Amelie cut him off. “I just downloaded 50 megabytes of the latest cutting edge botanical organization software. I can make sure your garden is perfect.”

“Very well, both of you can take care of this.” Yazeba said.

“No. Wait, yes. No!” Sal and Amelie both spoke at the same time, glaring at each other across the
coffee table.

Yazeba grinned. “You have to learn to work together sooner or later, so why not now? Wrangle some
volunteers, and put the rabbits to work. You have a garden to grow.”

Chapter Rules:

'''Frantic Mood'''

Before this Chapter starts, we’ll put a big pile of Chaos Coins where everyone can reach them. Whenever anyone wants to tick a track, they’ll consult their Chaos Coins:
* If they don’t have any Chaos Coins, they succeed right away, and take a Chaos Coin.
* If they do have Chaos Coins, they flip all of them at once, and if all the coins come up heads, they succeed! Otherwise, they don’t tick the track and must do a Whoopsie about it. Either way, they take another Chaos Coin.
Anyone can cash in five Chaos Coins to tick a track right away.

When any of us does a Bingo, they may give away all their Chaos Coins to someone else, making the
whole mess their problem. (That person shouldn’t then turn around and return the coins with a new
Bingo—no tag backs!)

'''The Dirty Work'''

Whenever a Veggie Track fills up, whoever checked it off last gets an “X”. Whenever a Flower Track fills up, whoever checked it off last gets an “O”. Take a tiny scrap of paper and draw the symbol on it. They may give these Xs and Os to whoever they please, but Amelie and Sal would like them most of all.

During this chapter, everyone has access to the following additional Bingos:
* Bring someone else a snack.
* Remind someone to put on sunscreen.
... and the following additional Whoopsies:
* Spill dirt or fertilizer everywhere.
* Step on a plant.

'''Garden Planning'''

Sal and Amelie are both trying to finagle the design of the garden. Amelie is attempting to arrange the garden in neat rows, alternating between Xs and Os. Sal is trying to play Tic Tac Toe with himself. Once the garden is completely filled up, the chapter ends. Amelie and Sal decide together how it ends, everyone drinks some lemonade, and the Bed & Breakfast gets a ▢ Dandelion Bouquet. Hold onto any leftover Chaos Coins, and leftover unplaced Xs and Os, for Housekeeping.

'''Tasty Little Snacks'''

The Rabbits in the Garden Who Wear Little Outfits are normally a helpful warren, but all the seeds and veggies and snacks flying around has them feeling a bit mischievous. The Rabbits In The Garden Who Wear Little Outfits may consult their Chaos Coins in order to steal an X or O from another player. If they succeed, they may hold onto it and consume it, ticking a Track on their Journey.

The Rabbits In The Garden Who Wear Little Outfits may also be persuaded to be helpful. They just simply don’t have to be helpful.
