Adventures

Adventures are small, episodic quests. These are things that happen that to the players that they need to respond to. Normally, these are shorter in scope (45-60 minutes of play time) but several can be created to make longer arcs. Optionally, complications can be kept secret from the other players and only known or created by the one running the adventure.

Adventures could describe someone getting into trouble, a group of teenagers sneaking off at night and trying to discover what glows in the woods, or can even set longer goals to accomplish over the coming weeks.

Adventures are great times for players to gain tokens by helping others, using their strengths to solve problems, or giving something up for others to succeed.

The facilitator and players create Adventures as they see fit, or as it suits the narrative. If a player wants to see a dear NPC who may be in trouble, they might request for that to happen and build an Adventure with others around the table.

Complications Two or more complications that arise

Outcomes Two or more outcomes with penalties and/or boons, and how those outcomes are triggered. Outcomes don’t have to just be positive/negative, but any combination of positive, negative, neutral.

_Design Note: _This adventure outline was created so players can create adventures together at the table. At minimum, we do suggest creating an opening adventure to help introduce the players to the setting and get them started. You can also provide tools, such as rolling tables, or a series of questions to answer, to help generate new adventures quickly.
