Cantrip
 |
Cantrip is a Belonging Outside Belonging game about young witches attending a magical academy. In play¸ the witches will grapple with their place in the world at large¸ their emotions¸ their budding relationships¸ the expectations placed on them by everyone in their lives¸ the secrets held by the Academy¸ and the constant scheming of their fellow witches. Taking cues from Little Witch Academia¸ The Owl House and high school anime¸ as well as Witch Hat Atelier and Discworld's Unseen University¸ players will build the world together during play¸ make trouble¸ learn magic¸ fall in love¸ make friends and try to make it through a full school year. Cantrip is unabashedly queer and explicitly rejects the reactionary and unfun tropes that tend to show up in Magical Academy media and opts to tell a story that¸ while not free of conflict¸ is decidedly about girls living their best lives.
