  • A few sessions ago in my Monster of the Week campaign, I needed a folk tale of a Raven and a Fox who piss off some diety figures. I knew the beats of the tale but I didn’t really have time to write it all up, so I asked Bing to do it. I had to rewrite the last quarter of it, but the story it produced otherwise worked just fine. I then used stable diffusion to illustrate it and provided it as a handout that the players could (but didn’t) read. Ah well.




  • There are lots of systems that have varied results. 2d20 and storypath both use a required number of successes to create space for partial success for example.

    Freeform Universal uses 6 results (no-and; no; no-but; yes-but; yes; yes-and)

    Genesys/Starwars FFG has a dual symbol system which has success/failure tracked separately from advantages/complications. There’s also two critical symbols which do not cancel even though one is good and one is bad. You could potentially get a roll which is very good & very bad at the same time.

    Those are just the ones I’ve played. I’m absolutely sure there’s more.


  • Hey all, I’m running my own game for this!

    Game Title: Welcome to Dungeon World

    System: Stock Dungeon World - Core Playbooks Only

    Format: Discord. Google Docs for character sheets.

    Time: Saturday, July 15, 2023 2:00 PM - 6:00 PM

    Safety Tools: Lines and Veils, X- Card

    Tone: Light-Comedy, Heavy-Adventure, Combat, No Gore, Summer Movie Style, PG-13ish Rating

    Requirements: Voice, Use of Discord Die-Roller.

    Setting:

    The Last of the Dystin - An ancient prophecy, a being out of time, and our heroes in a desert canyon of doom.

    This game is for people who are new to Dungeon World and want to see what the fuss is all about. This game will focus on teaching basic rules, demonstrating how moves work, and narrative-first approaches. The game will embrace the GM Rule of draw maps, leave blanks. A dungeon starter will be utilized, but many of the details will be filled in at the table. Players familiar with D&D (old or new) are welcome. Players new to RPGs in general are welcome. Players who just want to relax and have fun are also welcome.

    Bonds will be formed at the table. Players are expected to work as a team, not necessarily get along.

    Find me on the Discord. Username is the same. :-)
