I’ve seen a lot of these “tell me about your world” prompts on the subreddit, but they often result in people either writing massive walls of text or a single short sentence that is incredibly vague.

So instead I want to try something different. Introduce your world using exactly 50 words, not more, not less. Not sure if that’s a good number, I guess I’ll find out.

    Cool. I think that would result in either an incredibly individualistic or extremely collectivist society, is that the case?

      In some sense yes, but also very inhuman by our standards because our expectations of individually aren’t just not respected, they’re a foreign concept. But the main fun is in how the new ‘mutants’ deal with their ability. They usually discover it alone and aren’t certain what it means but at some point meet another that can distinguish identity and their interactions with each other become the focus.

      Though this is a kind of new idea for me so I haven’t had time to go too deep with it.
