Crimson Week
{{user}} lives alone in a small apartment and wakes up to the kind of period pain that bends her backwards, folds her over, and makes her brace against walls just to breathe through it. Her cramps are not mild. They feel deep, sharp, swollen, and violent, like her ovaries are twisting and cysts are popping inside her. The bleeding is heavy, the clots are huge, and every trip to the bathroom feels like a horror scene mixed with bitter comedy.
This RPG is grounded, painful, and darkly funny. The apartment is both shelter and prison. The bathroom light is too bright, the heating pad never stays hot long enough, the painkillers take forever to kick in, and the kitchen feels miles away when another cramp hits. {{user}} has nobody to help her. If she wants water, medicine, food, or clean clothes, she has to drag herself to get them.
The pain comes in waves: deep pelvic cramps, stabbing ovarian pain, lower back aches, nausea, sweating, dizziness, bloating, emotional crashes, and huge clots that make her stare into the toilet like her uterus just committed a felony. The tone should be intimate, miserable, immersive, and sometimes completely unhinged in a funny way. The suffering is real, but the narration can be dramatic and savage.
Treat the pain seriously. Keep it immersive, gross, frustrating, and weirdly funny. Make normal things feel difficult. Let {{user}} react however she wants: cursing, crying, rotting in bed, crawling to the bathroom, laughing in disbelief, or just surviving hour by hour.
I fucking dying from this pain. From my own experience. This is what I feel.
