Autoarchist Flavor Packets - For a Quick Start to your Congregation

 Autoarchist Flavor Packets

Premade Flavor Packets for a Quick Start


The flavor text samples below are to assist in creating the flavor of the congregation and in writing the allegorical mythology and crafting your own rituals, holidays, phrasing, etc… of meaning to your community. You can use them as-is, change them to suit your needs or use them as a template to create your own flavor. But, when gathered, everyone should stay in character and play it straight for the best fantasy immersion experience. It's like the SCA kinda. A way to decompress and be different for a while. Explore the context. Do not mistake the flavor text for reality. 


Flavor Packet #1

Reverse Isekai'ed Adventurer's Guild Operating as a Secret Society on Earth and biding their time until their people are reincarnated back to their home world.

Flavortext: Our heroes were defeated by the demon lord who used a spell of reincarnation to banish the hero's party and the army of adventurers to this world which has no magicules in its environment, preventing us from using magic to return. Being born into this new world with the old world still in our hearts, we don't fit in with others. So we strive to maintain the values of Autoarchy and our skills as adventurers so that someday we can return to our original world and will not have weakened at all. In the meantime, we maintain our traditions and way of life in secret, so that the broader native society of this world will not try to use us for evil ends. And we try to collect others like us so that our secret identity may be kept in solidarity, and none will forget or be left behind. We pretend to simply be LARPers as this is a common hobby of this world, and that is a sufficient smokescreen for us while we keep our skills sharp. But we have also registered as a religious organization since we are maintaining our world's religion and way of life. 


Our Religion of Autoarchy has 1 God, and this God Has 4 Avatars. The God is made up of the collective spirit of all sapient beings: humans, beastfolk, elves, dwarves, dragons, dragonborne, orcs, and so on. The Avatars are the personifications of the 4 most important attributes of that God: Creativity, Curiosity, Intellect, and Potential. We call them  SkΓΆpunargleΓ°i, Forvitni, Vit, and  MΓΆguleiki. 


Some of the Summoned Heroes must have come to our world from this one, since our terminology in religion and philosophy seems to be very similar to what scholars here refer to as "Old Norse". 


We often find that those mistreated by this world for intense focus on a single subject and differences in communication are actually reincarnations from our world. Many of them even create stories or games in similitude to our homeworld. So being a safe space for them is a task here, along with helping them remember who they are. 


Flavor Packet #2

Solarpunk Permaculture-Pilled Witch and Wizard Order

The Order of the Bumble Bee is a peaceful rural sect of witches and wizards who enjoy chaotic acts of gardening and permaculture, and the zero waste movement. They seem to have a slight obsession with farm-to-table sourdough pizza, slowfoods, and decorating things with found objects and spontaneous applications of color in everything. They tend to challenge themselves to talk in poetic verse and alliteration as a practice of giving themselves pause before expressing a thought. When confronted by rude outsiders, this poetic way of talking causes the opponent psychological damage. Be nice to the order of the bumble bee, or be stung right in the ego by their brutally honest rhymes. They look like hippies, they are mostly fluff, but that fluff hides a stinger packed with venom. 



Flavor Packet #3

Cyberpunk-Styled Time Travelers here to prevent Earth from becoming A Dystopic Corporate Hellscape

These guys enjoy weekend raves, techwear, gaming, stuff with animal ears, and bespoke jailbroken tech… They refer to the god of Autoarchy as "lain" and its avatars as "neko" (curiosity), "brain" (intellect), "organic" (creativity), and "seed" (potential). "organic" is the opposite of generative tech which is called "clanker". Everything important is written or spoken in their slang and jargon to keep the ever watchful scrapers from copying their ideas and reading their feelings.
