In this game, the first person makes a card using a keyword (or ability word) starting with the letter A. It may be established or custom. Then the next person makes a card using a keyword starting with the letter B, and so on to Z. Lather, rinse, repeat. Sound fun? I hope so!

List of all established keywords

Feel free to skip the following letters—basically, anything worth 8 or 10 points in Scrabble—as words starting with them are exceedingly rare:


I'll start us off:

"What do we want?"
"EQUAL RIGHTS!"

It might be helpful to put which letter you are on. It will get confusing later on
