“Just Another Day” a Living World One Shot in the Yazeba's Bed & Breakfast system. Led by Nona de Koning.

Welcome to Yazeba's Bed & Breakfast, a sprawling old house outside time and space, where it’s always September 15th and there’s always room for a new visitor. The unusual blend of premade characters, modular rules, and legacy mechanics makes this TTRPG perfect for pick-up play: busy players can drop in and out without ever feeling lost, and anyone who wants to jump in can make a long-term impact without a long-term commitment. Yazeba's is yours to change. Perhaps Residents will leave or change, Guests will become far more important than you expected, or Journeys will take unexpected twists. Take control of one of the 7 long-term residents of the B&B or choose from a cast of 50 quirky guests, each of whom has their own ongoing storylines. Chapters can be played in any order and include things like lazy afternoons, frightful nights, insurmountable chores, and zany competitions, so every adventure is full of surprises. When we were little, we were taught that a story is a sequence of events with a beginning, middle and end. But that’s not how all stories work: some loop around on themselves, some are told out of sequence, and some never end. After we play one Chapter, we can play another without worrying too much about whether it came before or after the Chapter we just played, or how much time has passed. Think back on that prolific paperback series you may have once read: you might have missed a few issues, or read them out of order, but you were always able to figure out what was going on. That's what Yazeba's is going for! Chapters are short, so we may play more than one adventure during our session, swapping characters in between! If you've played Yazeba's before, feel free to let your gamerunner know which chapters you've played, so you can try some new ones.

This game will be great if you like more freeform roleplay, a push-and-pull between weaknesses and strengths, a cast of colorful characters, pickup style play, unlocking things, legacy boardgames. New players are welcome. The game runner is very familiar with this system. The game comes with pre-existing characters to pick from.
