No more shall we raid the humble coffers of the working class goblins.
Never again shall we disturb the resting places of those crushed under the enormous wheels of capitalism.
Henceforth shall we stop fighting amongst ourselves and turn our attention to the true evil: the rich.
Based on a tweet, I give you Mansion Crawl: a game jam about creating encounters, modules, hacks, and games that focus on breaking into the opulent dwellings of the rich and taking back their ill-gotten gains.
Too often we think of tabletop roleplaying games as an escape, as pure fantasy. The sad truth is that much of what we believe to be the foundation of that fantasy—in this context, the dungeon crawl—often reinforces stereotypes and stigmas against marginalized groups on the basis of race, socioeconomic standing, religion, culture, and more. This jam takes a stand against the dungeon crawl and asserts that the appropriate target of our looting—and frankly, the objectively best target for looting—is the rich.
