A backronym for Second Wave Of Roleplaying Design - DIY Rules Everything Around Me, SWORD DREAM, or *DREAM for short, is a term and social media hashtag for a movement of designing role-playing games (RPGs) with a focus on tolerance, accessibility, and diversity.
While there is no official standard, participants have adopted the following principles:
Stands against hate & prejudice in all forms.
Works to be radically inclusive.
Encourages the use of sensible tools for communication and consent.
Opposes harassment and strives for non-toxic discourse.
Values creators & their work.
Values experimentation in game design & worldbuilding.
Isn't defined by, but is interested in: anti-canons, emergent story, generative worlds, kitbashing, non-violent play options, and more.
There is no one *DREAM. Anyone who commits to these principles is *DREAMing .

Get the Pipe Dreammug. A rag, towel, or similar item you keep by the side of your bed in order to wipe up cum after a wet dream.
"Man, I couldn't quit dreaming about that slut we saw at the bar last night. Good thing my "dream rag" was by my bed to wipe up all the cum".
