SWORD DREAM

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 .
Games that subvert traditional RPG tropes and seek to add diversity and accessibility to the form are considered SWORD DREAM games.

Dream Stan

A person that "Stans" A famous Minecraft youtuber Dream. They are basically the definition of stupid. These people are usually 9-year olds sitting behind their crusty Ipads, And they will send death-threats to you if you simply say a sentence that is not positive about Dream. They will say they are going swat your fucking house if they are really dumb.

Their appearance usually differs from "normal" clothing to entire fucking cosplays regarding Dream. Sometimes they have a crush on Dream and say some really stupid stuff i cannot mention because it is not fucking humane/sane/appropriate.
9-year old: "I'm a dream stan"
Sane person: "Are you fucking delusional?"
