These Flimsy Rituals is a highly narrative focused actual play podcast, aiming to tell small stories in big worlds. We're big on collaborative storytelling, with lots of creative freedom for the players to contribute to the world. Most of our games are set in the same world, Ryne. A world shaped by strange, titanic god-husks. We play to find out what it's like to live in this world, with different seasons and one-shots exploring different regions, people and stories. Inspirations include Earthsea, Ghibli, Shadow of the Colossus, The Banner Saga, Broken Earth and general folklore.Currently playing Embrace. Join the defiant radicals, the Jubilant Maybe, as they fight the wealthy, the secretive and the weird forces that hold the city's future in their hands.
