Sort of. In the anime game I mentioned (BM4: Isekai) we had magical girl roles. The wolf was a ādark magical girlā whose ability names and effects implied a story. We were like āokay we have a team of magical girls, and in a fight or something, one of them gets separated from others and sheās devastated by this. sheās heartbroken and this is why sheās a villain. the other magical girls didnāt mean to abandon her and thought she was dead.ā and we think of how this plot line could play out. In this case it was āshe gets fully corrupted and becomes a monsterā or āshe becomes redeemed and rejoins the squadā.
Her abilities referenced her feelings of loss and resentment, and it eventually consuming her. When she fully succumbed, she gained a lot of power and was explicitly given a more monstrous name and form. However, the good magical girls had abilities that we implied could purify someone. If they happened to target the dark magical girl with a purifying ability, she would be reborn (this is a pseudo alignment swap where we bring in an uninformed player and give them the redeemed role or something). This is a particularly complex example, but we had a fantasy and a branching narrative arc told partially through flavor text, but you could piece the story together if youāre 1) familiar with the magical girl genre and tropes surrounding it 2) paying attention to the roles as they flip and the way the related roles reference each other. Again, this was super super high concept, but thatās my favorite thing to make.

fam4 is gonna feature magical girls im scared
i avoided primarily creative fields because of how cutthroat and felt like it was immature and foolish to pursue it. as iāve grown, iāve realized that likeā¦ no specific jobs in game design are extremely appealing to me and intersects immensely with both my skillset and creative energy.

weāve been working on it so much so it being like 2 months away. i had a dream last night where i talked about a role in cookie thread that didnāt actually exist, and āleakedā something about it to make people pay attention to it and talk about it, the entire goal was to use the speculation to create a role. also we did something like that once, but we were less heavy-handed about seeding the discussion and correctly assumed it would happen organically in the pre-game discord. edit: by āweā i mean my previous mash design team
