  • True though the disguise kit would take more time. I am so far. part of my GMs annoyance is that a lot of the names of the NPCs are clear hints as to their purpose and if you speak German and some Latin it makes it VERY obvious what the next plot point will be so I have been banned from translating the names from now on.


  • Let the players as a group have agency in your narrative. It sounds like a stupid joke about the pet goblin but it isn’t. Our favorite campaign ever was a mage campaign where the players spent the whole campaign focus on one guy (Sir ben kingsley in Lucky number slevin) and they went after him with all they had. But on the side they made friends with some of the factions. Especially this one Sons of Ether, Lucy Monk. They confided in her and had her help them with plans. it was great.

    Then the twist came.

    Yeah, you figured it out.

    But the look on their faces when they had to travel back in time to get the guy they thought was the BBEG and he turned around and showed them who it really was still makes the DM giggle to himself.

    Any game you play matters if the players feel they are moving things along and making a difference, even a small one.

    If you are the DM, be the rest of the world but let them move you.

    Lifelong fan of SW. I have seen all of them up to Last Jedi. I have read all of the EU back when it was cannon. Never went to New Jedi Order. Because the emotions it brought me were pain and suffering. They kill Mara Jade. The only other bad ass female character in a series of 30+ books. What about Children of the Jedi? I mean the entire Trilogy is whiny 70’s sci fi emo writing all it’s own but that the Star Wars stamp was put on it just adds insult to injury.
