Father Octopodes

You are a group of octopuses. In a stolen friar’s habit, you have infiltrated the Church. You have your reasons. They have their suspicions. Do what you need to do.

This is a one-page ttrpg, designed for one-shots with 3-6 players. The role of GM rotates during play, depending on where you are in the stack of octopuses hiding in the friar's robe. Roll a bunch of dice, ride the growing chaos, and outfox the Church as a group of clever octopuses... octopi? Octopodes?
