Advent's Amazing Advice: The Wild Sheep Chase, A One-Shot fully prepped and ready to go!

  • @Advent well the first thing i did was freeze up and then break character and tell them that they just killed the quest giver and now i have no prepared way to hook them into the plot 🤣

    then i think i had some orcish thug employees of the wizard show up and coerce them into getting back on track. Continuity meta-police.

  • @bionicjoey @Advent my players immediately killed the sheep. I was a new dm at the time so it absolutely broke me 🤣

    What are some free solo games for a "beginner"? who also has no friends.

  • @QuietStorm Do you want something that feels like D&D? What else are you into? What vibe are you looking for?

    You can browse the free solo games on itch and see what jumps out at you.

    • What is your favorite 'rules light' system?

  • @tissek @GataZapata I don't think you can call Blades (or Wicked Ones, mentioned below) rules light. It's core mechanic is super simple, yes, and has inspired lots of lightweight hacks. But Blades has soooo much tacked onto it that it almost feels like a board game to me in the sense that there are just so many moving pieces, and stages of play, and faction play, etc: it feels like a collection of mini-games sometimes.

    Managing a large campaign

  • @KoboldOfArtifice wiki software my dude. i used to keep all my campaign notes in a project wiki on github. and have recently been using vimwiki. that way stuff can be hyperlinked instead of linear. and vimwiki has a good tagging system. and it's all plain text so you can search it really easily.

    Modern Urban Fantasy

  • @Velynt I'd check out Modern d20 and BRP. Might be worthwhile trying to find a Shadowrun hack.
