Would anybody be interested in a printable Nausicaä board game? I have been working on this for some time now. It's kind of a mix of Risk and Magic the Gathering, sort of.

I'm trying a new approach, so please let me know if this is more appropriate for the subreddit. I wanted to share this scene because it's very relevant to the themes I've been considering in this story.

I think it's incredible and very admirable the way Nausicaa jumps in here to save this old feeble man. I might be wrong about the chronology, but I believe she doesn't even know yet that he is the Dorok emperor. Even yet, she still steps in to save him from the darkness, a virtual stranger. Even if she knows who he is, she still tries to save him. Though this person chose to create and stifle others in darkness, and hunted her relentless, to the point of almost taking her life. And yet she still steps in, and acts to be kind to him.

After she shakes him free of his own darkness, bids goodbye to the shadows haunting him, the very same shadows that attempted to consume her, and she continues to let him cling to her for safety. She helps him confront his own fear which is threatening to swallow up his spirit, and brings him into the light that he so fears.

I consider the way Nausicaa helps people conquer their own fear, and see things more clearly without the fog of fear, to be one of the most essential character traits that draws me to her.

This action especially shows that value in Nausicaa's character. She continues to look after him, and even shepards his spirit to a more peaceful world. I find this so powerful. I love Nausicaa.

There were some artistic liberties taken. I hope it doesn't change the vibe of the scene too much.

I first read the Nausicaa manga back in the late 1980's (Viz editions), and have never been able to shake the interest. I've since collected all the cool merchandise I've been able to find (reprints, action figures, various versions of the anime, etc), and it is so cool that this sub has grown in popularity over recent years (I've been a long-time lurker with previously little to add to the conversation other than details of my collection).

I'm also a roleplaying gamer and it didn't take me too long to begin working on a 'love letter' to Myazaki in the form of an original game system. 35 years later it is finally complete. I don't wish to overstep any self-promo rules, so I shan't provide links :( but if anyone is even a little intrigued, you can follow my post history and you'll discover it.

This is a game that is, essentially, written FOR Nausicaa fans, and I think you'll enjoy rediscovering planet Earth!

Thanks for your time.
