This is my gaming circle minus my ACKS players. I am such an asshole. Since they're in the big city now, the players really wanted to know if there were any magic weapons for sale. ACKS ain't 3e or 4e though. There is exactly one magic weapon for sale. I rolled randomly to see what it was and... ...it's a cursed -2 sword. So I told the players there's a weapons dealer/fence who's looking to get rid of a magic sword he's gotten ahold of...cheap. Only 6,000gp when usually a +1 item would be 10,000gp. So far they are not suspicious. They're going to be so pissed at me. I can barely contain my excitement.
How do you go about it?
ReplyDeleteI have no process. Think about it until it's not as shitty as it was before.
ReplyDeleteWould this be any help? http://xbowvsbuddha.blogspot.com.br/2006/10/adventure-funnel.html
ReplyDeleteI tend to skirt the problem by sandboxing and being decent at improv. I often start with a random encounter and work back from there. What are doing here? What or who got them there? In a few sessions I usually have enough hooks for a sandbox that branches out fractal-like from my off-the-cuff assumptions that I develop between sessions.
ReplyDeleteI've found Felipe to be barren of good ideas. Why we even include him is beyond me.
ReplyDeleteThis is me too. I think I should try something other than come up with adventure ideas. Like illustrating or doing layout.
