Continuing the idea of playing a game across the bodies of your friends and lovers, here are some thoughts on the distaff side.

Question: What do H. Rider Haggard, Friedrich Nietzsche and John Mayer have in common?

Exhibit A:

kukuanaland

– H. Rider Haggard, King Solomon’s Mines

 

Exhibit B:

“Young: a cavern decked about. Old: a dragon sallies out.”

– Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil

 

Exhibit C:

 

Answer: They’ve all written about the female form as a passport to adventure.

Lucky for us, tattooed women are also covered in evocative noun imagery. And it’s all playable. Fun just got more fun!

For examples go to SuicideGirls or search “tattoo woman” and view images.

Now get out there and turn your friends into a sandbox or megadungeon. Every body as a locale or level is a good place to start.

My wife and I were awake one Saturday morning and she commented my body could be an adventure where at the end the treasure – the jewels – are guarded by an anaconda (her words). Later I got to thinking. I have a couple of tattoos, a leprechaun and a mad hatter. Well, what if they were antagonists along the way?

Virtually every guy with more than one tattoo has images of monsters, animals, people, environments and places marked out straight onto his body. Play that!

By way of example search “yakuza” and view images.

To cast a wider net search “tattoo man” and view images.

See what I mean?
