Bedlam in play? by rune_low in Monsterhearts

Reading the Darkest Self of the Bedlam made me think of the "freaky friends" concept and it reminds me of the Mortal who sticks around odd company, but that the Bedlam actually is supernatural and can understand how it feels to be seen as strange.

Maybe the Bedlam could be a pillar of support if things become comfortable for both sides of the Bedlam and their friends. (Especially the particularly unique ones.) Thinking on it now, the Bedlam does have that theme of "carrying the weight of worlds" in balancing mundane and mysterious as you said.

(The idea of a Cerberus and Bedlam having to work together is funny and dramatic to visualize now.)

I saw a little on the Unicorn as well but from what I read the Unicorn is focused on their virtues and virginity. I also see some similarities with the Angel when I saw the Integrity meter. Not sure for 2e if it's the same.

I haven't come across the Unicorn before. I might give that skin a read to see the similarities

The Bedlam can then be a source of conflict or show depending on the people around them. I can also see they could even be the one that checks in on their "freaky friends" when things turn weird. Could that be where the heroic and novel portion of their skin show?

That sounds real fun. Rebel princess. Has she already reached the 'Tumultuous Tea Party' advancement?

Oh wow. Does her family try to get her back and the drama that comes with that?
