An adaptation of the story of the same name, The Substitute Sire RPG allows players to create together a story of a near-helpless vampire kept captive by a human master who knows all their weaknesses and restrictions. The game uses an ordinary shuffled deck of playing cards to determine the order of events and which of the vampire's idiosyncrasies will be at issue next. Three suits belong to the human, one to the vampire- so a vampiric victory is unlikely, but possible! (After all, even the most proficient of wild beast tamers would be liable to suffer an accident if keeping an exotic animal in their home). The Substitute Sire RPG costs $3 USD and is for 1-2 players.
