A meandering journey into the world of fantasy.
Teleportation Administration Substation - by Luka Rejec And we continue... I wasn't 100% sure where I wanted to send our group of lost survivors, so I stalled for time by running a "one page dungeon" that is basically a waiting room 🙂 Our survivors* Thora: a Legion-born knight (lvl1 Fighter played by R)* Elin: a … Continue reading The Lost ep 4 – Waypoint Office
Gateway by Alecyl Well, that was a really good decision.After the painful last session (where it took forever to just move a few rooms and work out the mechanics) we went back to the Freebooters ruleset. All of a sudden we were swiftly exploring and moving through the tower! For those interested, it was a … Continue reading The Lost – episode 3 – Escape?
Last of the Kings by Vladamir ManyukhinNot the right layout for the session, but scale is good(ish) This was ... not a great session. While running it we quickly came across some curious mechanical issues. Namely, that "Forbidden Lands" doesn't really discuss how to handle dungeon exploration... At least not to the same extent that … Continue reading The Lost – episode 2 – Into the Tower.
by Cosimo Galluzzi The initial goal for our group: get the hell away from a war-zone. All the party knows a rumour of a magical place about a day's trip north in the hills, a place locals call "The Gatehouse". I sat them down and let them loose. Our three characters were given an "introduction … Continue reading The Lost – episode 1 – To the Gatehouse
Forbidden Lands by Fria Ligan. I gotta say, my players and I were sold on the game by the dino-riding robo-guy After the sudden death of our last characters, my players wanted to try something a little different. They enjoyed the setting, but found the system of Freebooters on the Frontier v2 to be a … Continue reading The Lost – a Forbidden Lands session 0.
Vome Convoy... (from Horizon Zero Dawn) This session had me excited. We were going to test out the travel rules from "Perilous Wilds" while the little expedition headed out across the Rust Plains.All I had to start was the map, the notes about the atlas hexes (G2, H3) and the random tables from Freebooters on … Continue reading The Fearless – Session 5
Heart of Nature by yakonusuke. I think this area was part of my original inspiration. I saw a kickstarter ages ago for a book - Into the Wyrd and Wild - and the initial paragraph by Charles Avery really captured by imagination: This is not the woods of peaceful fey and beast, but the dark … Continue reading The Great Forest – #tenmonstersetting
Introducing List - art by Jin Woo Park OK, I need to get this down - I've been procrastinating about writing this play-report for a while now. We had a third player join us, and he randomly made a character which happened to be a mage-apprentice with a spell! =====Dawn and Syn come to meet … Continue reading The Fearless – session 4
yes... skyrim 🙂 So instead of trying to deal with the "Central Massif" area, I've divided up the regions according to landscape - the Highlands (in Central Massif and shadow of the spire), The Forest, and the shadowlands. First on the docket is the Highlands - the mountain range that cuts across the entire Broken … Continue reading The Highlands – #tenmonstersetting
by Unknown... So we've come back to continue our game. We decided that all characters would start out "random" to some extent or other. Since Syn is the only surviving character, and she'd decided to get away as far as possible from Bill and Bills-Fall, we started the session with only the one character, but … Continue reading The Fearless – session 3
