Training other people to be you after you die - the game.

When I read the title of your thread my first thought was "Dammit! He always gets the best ideas."
Then I shook my fist and did other things. Today I came back and read it. I'm excited!

This sounds like it'll be really beautiful and heartbreaking to watch if you have the players dying one by one too.  I'd be curious to see what kinds of mechanics you're using.

OrionCanning:
So wait, how long does the chain go for? If I train you to be me after I die, then do you train someone to be you after you die, in effect training them to be me, and so on? I could have an army.

Mathalus:
You have to do the same thing the poets did. Like a poem, there are bits of you that are more than the sum of your parts. Words in a poem have certain connotations, they invoke responses in the person viewing them.  You just have to do the same thing with yourself. Find pieces that invoke you.

Maybe this is a scavenger hunt:

Genetic
Amniotic
Pains
Pleasures
Philosophies
Confusions

Father, Mother, Enemy (who destroys you), Lover, A book you read, A thing you wrote.


Okay, so this post is not actually helpful. I still enjoyed thinking about this, so screw you guys.
