Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Every year many children go missing. Some return home safe and sound. Some are discovered in shallow graves. Many are simply never seen again. It is not just the work of separate sickos; something far more evil is at work...There is a place called "Closetland" where all monsters and fear originate. These monsters have one main purpose: destroy the innocence of children. The monsters may do this directly or influence humans to harm children for them. Worst of all is how it is mostly only children ages six to twelve or thirteen who can even percieve the denizens of Closetland; the majority of adults lack the innocence needed to see them, although some insane or mentally impared adults can still see the monsters. In short, adults are of limited defense against Closetland, so it is up to the children themselves. Luckily, there is still hope; children have the power of belief and faith on their side. Favorite toys become powerful weapons in the right hands, and simple prayers become wards of protection. Closetland is clever and ruthless though; battles can be won against it, but the war is never over.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Little Fears: The Game of Childhood Terror is a tabletop RPG created in 2001 by Jason L. Blair of Key 20 Publishing. After years of being out of print after a limited run, a new game line, Little Fears: Nightmare Edition came out in late 2009. You can see the official site.A revised and updated version of the original game, titled Happy Birthday, Little Fears was released to celebrate the 10th anniversary.The Little Fears Cthulhus Tales Comic Book and Sourcebook for the Cthulhu Mythos was funded through Kickstarter. | |

Crapsack World | |
Little Fears (Tabletop Game) / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: There's monsters out there that only a limited number of people can see and nobody believes them because they're all children, in spirit if not in age. The monsters are responsible, directly or indirectly, for every act of evil in the world. They are so powerful that they can turn the people around you, even your friends and family, into their puppets just to get to you. And if they get you, one of a thousand horrible fates awaits you - an eternity of slavery, becoming a monster yourself or simply being eaten by monsters. And you can't truly beat them. Ever. The best you can hope for is to survive long enough to grow up into one of the worthless adults who are totally unaware of what is going on in the world, thus perpetuating the cycle of abuse and torment as the next generation fears for their lives while not being believed... Softened quite a bit for Nightmare Edition, but there's still an infinite supply of child-tormenting monsters born of mankind's fears. | |

Invisible to Adults | |
Little Fears (Tabletop Game) / int_4a41c3dc | comment |
Invisible to Adults: All monsters. Period. In Nightmare Edition, monsters actually dislike appearing in the presence of adults because of the same lack of belief that makes them invisible. The only way a monster can be seen by adults is if it's disguised as something ordinary — a werewolf in human form, worms mimicking a child, a giant praying mantis wearing a false human skin to appear to be a babysitter, etc. | |

The Fair Folk | |
Little Fears (Tabletop Game) / int_859ec5d8 | comment |
The Fair Folk: Titania, King of Pride, used to be the shining queen of a more benevolent Faerie Land, the kind kids dream of. Then Closetland invaded. Her kingdom sacked, Titania's gladly sold herself out as the Demagogue's consort. Now she oversees an army of Goblyns and makes it her life's work to drive people's feelings of self-worth into the toilet. She's better in the second edition, for the kids anyway. Titania herself got it worse with her husband Oberon killed and herself being in catatonic state, with vines bleeding magic from her, but at least she doesn't turn evil. | |

Seven Deadly Sins | |
Little Fears (Tabletop Game) / int_99a7aa94 | comment |
Seven Deadly Sins: The Seven Kings of Closetland represent the sins. They are the Boogeyman (greed), Titania (pride), Rael-Schol (envy), Lamashtu (wrath), Kabaelza (sloth), Baba Yaga (gluttony), and the Defiler (lust). Interestingly, these sins are manifested in ways associated with child abuse: the Boogeyman embodies kidnapping; Titania, Weight Woe; Rael-Schol, Serial Killers, Lamashtu, physical abuse; Kabaelza, child labor; Baba Yaga, cannibalism; and the Defiler, pedophilia. | |

Ghostly Goals | |
Little Fears (Tabletop Game) / int_c5835f29 | comment |
Ghostly Goals: In Nightmare Edition, all monsters have goals like these. Most of these goals aren't innately evil, and if the children help the monster resolve them, they'll be "purified" in some way — turning back to normal, ascending to the afterlife, or just leaving their would-be victim(s) alone and going away. Other goals are innately evil, and if they're accomplished, the monster will just become something even worse. | |

Lighter and Softer: Despite the ominous name, Nightmare Edition defaults to this as compared to the original game. It suggests the possibility of making it even more so, or bringing it back in line with the original game... and provides optional rules to help with either change of tone. | |
