Freeform Friday: Jorge Luis Borges

Image
If I could recommend every GM to read an author it would be Jorge Luis Borges. The Argentine author is very concerned with ideas of interest to a typical GM: labyrinths, libraries, infinity, mythology, and the metaphysical. Make no mistake, roleplaying games are an exercise in the metaphysical: a melding of the minds at the table to bring to life the shared fiction.

The earlier you can bring wishes into your game the earlier your players start trying to exploit the game in weird, emergent, and fun ways you could never have foreseen. Or maybe they will just use them to wish the enemy they are fighting suddenly has a giant tree burst out of their stomach, your mileage may vary. Inspired by Electric Bastionland by Chris McDowall and how the Gutter Minder class can start the game with three wishes that last only as "the bracing of the liquor,...

1dX Wednesday: 1d100 Weird Backgrounds

Image
Here are 1d100 weird backgrounds that have led to you becoming a mercenary. Random background tables are something that we can always use more of. These are all found in my hack found here: https://skyorrichegg.itch.io/a-crucible-for-silver Master of Keys A master of keys will often start out as a simple locksmith or perhaps a thief specializing in lock picking. Soon enough they find themselves hoarding keys and lock picks obsessing with the idea of a single perfect, primordial, Ur-key. Their worldview has been changed to one that sees the whole world as a lock in need of key. 6d20 Keys of all shapes and sizes, stuffed into pockets and hanging off their clothing Lock Picking Tools Hammer Runestone Open Key Sketchbook Advantage when lock picking non-magical locks. 2-in-6 chance that they have the key to any lock encountered but it takes 1d60 minutes to find.
