Villains Anonymous

Subsequent to their various defeats at the hands of heroes and heroines the villains of fairy-tale and fantasy have been taken in hand by The Powers That Be and ordered to atone for their crimes by attending group therapy.

In this ‘Safe’ environment they will, (under expert supervision) explore and share their feelings, dig deep into their hurts and heartaches and air their untold ‘Dirty Laundry’ in front of their contemporaries in an effort to find some measure of closure before they are allowed another spin of the mortal wheel.

Villains Anonymous is a light-hearted game poking fun at famous (and Mouse endorsed) fairytale villains, it provides the option to explore numerous common and not-so-common mental disorders from the point of view of another person (the ‘Character’) maybe encouraging a greater understanding of mental health issues for the players as a whole within a ‘safe’ environment.

The game is written by/with input from trained mental health professionals to provide players with a basis for understanding the drives/disorders these characters may possess.

There is no intent to ‘belittle’, ‘make light of’ of ‘mock’ any individual, group or sufferer of any of the conditions referenced. The key goal and intent of the game is to serve as a fun warm-up LRP with a good measure of humour and characterization to get the players in the mood for the Convention weekend.
