2. Yeah, that sounds like missing the point.

4. Change the word “kiss” to something else just as meaningful to the character.

6. change that section if that makes absolutetly no sense for the character.

   Or change your character because that kind of character does not make for a Doomed. 

7. “you want to kiss your grandfather’s hand before your doom comes”

8. The point of this question is to establish something the Doomed wants to do before the Doom comes- specifically involving another character. If your character is aromantic and asexual, you can still have feelings for other characters, you will just express them differently. Maybe it’s admiration or love or respect? Love doesn’t have to be romantic.

   Alternately, if it really doesn’t work for you, change it. Don’t use it. Take a question from another playbook. The purpose is to establish a relationship, so answering ‘no one’ doesn’t push the story forward, but playing an asexual/aromantic character is totally legit.

9. “the sky”, “the soil of Mecca”, “the forehead of a dying man”

10. I was thinking relatively simple and just kiss someone; As in “see if this is a thing that is all it’s cracked up to be.”

11. I read that as being sort of like the Make-A-Wish foundation, what’s the one thing you want to do before…?

    I might take some inspiration from The Fault in Our Stars — John Green novels are good reading for Masks GMs!
