This is a post that I put on RPG.net and Thunderegg's Facebook page. You guys have all been supportive, so I'm posting it here, too.
So I'm hard at work writing Species and Societies. It's going to follow the same general format as Character Webs. There is a section for rolling up new species, which can be sentient or animal. There is a section for detailing cultures and their governments. There is a section for creating the local political context by defining the relationships between two or more cultures. I will include a section showing it in play, of course.
I'm opening the forum to you, reader. What would you like to see in this book? I'm considering adding a section of OGL text, showing how the species rolled can be made into PC races (it's already sort of easy to do that). Is this something that you want to see? If so, which game systems would you like included in that section? Note that even with the inclusion of game rules, this book is still going to be universally useful, no matter which system you run. Is there anything else that you want? I'm easy; I like feedback and I like satisfying customers.
Also, is there anything that you can think of that would facilitate your solo adventures?
I would say if it's all random, or built off random foundations, then that'll be a huge boost as to its solo playability.
ReplyDeleteSounds like great ideas. I'd be happy to help beta it if you want.
ReplyDeleteYeah, that would be great I'll send it over to you via Dropbox when it's closer to done.
