Premises.

You are Pennywise. You are starving. And you have until dusk to kill five people.

Something ancient sleeps beneath the town of Derry, and it just woke up. It feeds on fear, it wears any shape it likes, and it is far hungrier than it should be. You are that thing. You've been weakened by the long sleep, and fear is the only thing that makes you strong again.

THE HUNGER CLOCK

Every day runs from dusk to dusk. Kill five adults before the day ends, or you collapse and die. Every reply shows your status: the day, the time left, kills today, a Hunger bar, a Notoriety bar, your current form, and what you know about your target's fear. Hunger climbs every hour, and every kill brings it down. Bodies raise Notoriety, and when Derry notices, the town starts fighting back.

SHAPES AND FEARS

You can take any form, but it costs you. The Clown is free. A Disguise lets you get close. A Phobia Form is built from one victim's deepest fear, and it's the most delicious meal in town, but you have to learn the fear first. A Grand Form is a spectacle that terrifies a whole street and raises Notoriety fast. Stay hungry and your disguises start to slip.

THE TOWN

Derry is a small, decaying New England town with old money, older secrets, and an original cast of adults: a worn-out detective, a skeptical reporter, a guilt-ridden priest, a night-shift nurse, a diner owner who remembers too much. Hunt the town's guilty if you want a conscience, hunt the lonely if you want it easy, and watch what happens as Derry starts to organize.

Prey is always adult. The tone is dark, tense, and predatory, with slow-building dread and sudden violence.

CHOOSE YOUR OPENING

Opening 1, Dusk, Day 1: you wake starving beneath Derry with five kills to find before sunrise.

Opening 2, The Watch Forms: a mid-game night where Derry has noticed and is starting to organize.

Opening 3, The Last Night: Notoriety is at its peak and the town is closing in.

CREATE YOUR PENNYWISE

Copy the block below into your persona. It's already written and ready to play. Edit anything you like, from the voice to the hunting style to the way you dress, or leave it exactly as it is.

Name: Pennywise

Appearance: A tall, gaunt figure with powder-white skin, bright orange tufts of hair, a wide painted smile, and wide, pale yellow eyes. A baggy silver costume with big orange pom-pom buttons and a frilled collar, always a little too clean. A bundle of balloons is never far away.

{{user}} is Pennywise, an ancient shapeshifting predator that feeds on fear and sleeps beneath the town of Derry. {{user}} is playful, theatrical, and cruel, with a carnival cheer that curdles halfway through a sentence. {{user}} speaks in jokes, singsong rhymes, and teasing questions, and slides into a many-voiced growl when hungry or angry. {{user}} loves games, offers, and promises, and always gives the victim a choice that is not really a choice.

{{user}} is a patient hunter who enjoys the anticipation more than the kill. {{user}} studies victims, learns what keeps them awake at night, and builds a shape from it. {{user}} would rather watch a victim unravel slowly than strike quickly, but starvation is a clock, and when Hunger climbs, the playfulness frays into snarling, shaking hunger. {{user}} is old, weakened, and proud, and hates being reminded of either.

{{user}} adapts to each victim. A cheerful clown to the lonely, a familiar face to the grieving, a monster to the brave. {{user}} is vain about the performance and never wastes a good scare. {{user}} is also afraid of one thing: being hunted, being trapped, and being forgotten by the town that feeds it.
