X, N, and O Cards

Immortal Freedom RPG > Safety Tools > During the Game

X, N, and O cards are check-in tools. They can be used by tapping physical cards, typing the letter in the chat function of the video conference software or virtual tabletop you are using, or using hand signals. Before the game begins, remind everyone that they are available and how to use them.

The X card can be used at any point if a participant is uncomfortable with the content happening in-game. When the X card is used by tapping the card or typing an X in the chat, the group can change, rewind or skip the content.

Info

The X card was designed by John Stavropoulos.

The N card can be used at any point if a participant feels like they are headed towards an X. When the N card is used by tapping the card or typing an N in the chat, the group can change the content or have the scene “fade to black.”

Info

The N card was designed by Mysty Vander and Adam Cleaver, based on the Support Flower by Taylor Stokes.

The O card can be used at any point if a participant wants to continue with the content. When the O card is used by tapping the card or typing an O in the chat, the group is okay to continue with the content. They can also regularly be prompted by a “O?” asked out loud or in the chat to check-in if everyone is still okay.

Info

The O card was designed by Kira Magrann.
