FATE: Generic Adventure #3: The Awakening: Prologue: Act 1

I'm being mildly facetious.

I mean it can be whatever like elves or kender.

Remove Dwarf from premise

I totally want a location based off this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xiaozhai_Tiankeng

Like a settlement that's a natural fortress due to being in a double nested sinkhole. Or I dunno maybe some dungeon or whatever. Regardless it's a rad setpiece to play with.

Anyway for a really whimisical race I was thinking of like some slime critter that makes jelly/gummy type buildings.

Also what if we made Orcs good guys and made the dwarves or elves assholes?

1. I think the real question is just how active are the Gods or God in question.

2. Something in between. I mean if we're doing high fantasy we gotta have something bombastic but it doesn't need to be Super dooper epic either.

3. I think we should keep it small at first but have options to visit exotic locales.

4. Some fantasy religion and maybe like an adventurer archeologist type guild or club.

5. Dragons, fiercesome otherworldly creatures, would be conquerers, flamboyantly evil wizards.

6. What do you mean by this?

7. Thinking guy with bow and magic because it feels like could be used for colorful gimmicks and stuff.

If we combine our answers for #5, we get something pretty interesting: A war is being waged for control over the dying dragon's hoard and territory.

A cult is trying to summon otherworldly demons now that the dragons no longer defend us, and are trying to control them to wipe out non-humans

I think if we can tie the dragon plot with the demon plot we could get something cool here.

Response to GM

I'm not trying to instigate trouble by attacking your homebrew.

What I am simply trying to do is just understand how it works. So, no just saying you use an RNG isn't satisfactory.

As an avid player of this genre or whatever you call it, my like of it involves the game part that involves interacting with the mechanics. And my expectations when seeing a game in the tabletop section is to have all the mechanics and stuff laid down clearly, because the mechanics is what makes a tabletop game regardless of whether it's super heavy on numbers or is narrative focused. And to play you need to learn the rules like any other game.

For me, the problem is the lack of transparency in regards to the mechanics and solely relying on the GM to dictate results is functionally the same as having no mechanic as you can't really objectively gauge actions as a player and it becomes GM fiat.

I understand your wish and concern to streamline and work the mechanics in a fashion that they are not obstructive to players that new and or don't care that much about the mechanics. However I feel that just hiding how everything works isn't the best way to go about it.

Hopefully you can understand where I'm coming from, if not then while unfortunate that's fine. Anyway like I said I'm trying to intentionally cause trouble here and hopefully we can resolve this and if not than I'll just leave.

Glitch: The Nine Worlds

Odd, but whatever.

Anyway I am familiar with how most PnP RPGs operate. What I'm not familiar with, is specifically your rule set and its operation.

Right so I'm gonna assume that perk for Rangers means I don't ever need to worry about initiative, and Perception is the to-hit roll stat it seems. So is there a damage roll? What die type are we using?

Also what does a Nekh look like?

Glitch: The Nine Worlds

Yeah but what are the actual mechanics?

I kinda want to get the combat round out of the way so I can do one post. That way if it turns into a whiff-fest that takes forever to resolve it can be summarized.

@Pair of Hearts

So how is combat gonna be resolved?

None of the premade settings really capture my attention.
