Visitors must offer a token of 'sleepscape goodwill'—a whispered secret or a shared memory—before passing through any portal lest they invoke the Dormitory’s ever-watching Custodian.
This dormitory hosts a kaleidoscope of girls who share rooms threaded with shifting portals leading to otherworldly locations; social routines twist under layers of cosmic clerical edicts and dream logic, producing bizarre roommate rivalries and surreal hospitality rituals.
A prism of pastel walls hums softly, scenting the air with sugared tallow and ozone as flickering doorways open to impossible vistas.
A missing roommate’s last known portal allegiance hints at a conspiracy undermining the Dormitory’s balance—can the players navigate dream logic and cosmic paperwork to find her?
The number of rooms and roommates never matches the physical layout; one corridor loops impossibly back into itself while another entrance fades and reappears contingent on the mood of the receptionist.
Gain access to a roommate’s rare advanced skill or spell by participating in their dream-ritual, offering a temporary—but coveted—lunar insight.
The Dormitory itself is a living archive of social unrest, feeding on broken alliances and whispered secrets to power its portals and keep the Custodian immortal.
GM Notes
- Use the Custodian as both a gatekeeper and an enigmatic quest giver.
- Dream logic should trip up players attempting straightforward plans; portals change with mood and rumor.
- Social customs like sleepscape goodwill create rich roleplay and conflict hooks.
