This past weekend I started a new solo campaign. I made an unnamed "level 0" commoner and dropped him off in generic, procedurally generated countryside.

So far he's:
-Been roaming around as a homeless vagrant for about two and a half months
-Learned enough of the local language to get by.
-Had a series of jobs that ranged from working as a farmhand to loading supplies at a stockyard.
-Been named "Milo" by the locals, the name kind of stuck.
-Most recently he's been a caravan guard.

Now that he's had a taste of battle, and realized that he can make money from adventuring/fighting, I don't imagine he's going back to farming. Not when you can earn lots of gold from a single job, as opposed to a couple copper a day. Upon arriving home from his current job, Milo will finally become a 1st level Fighter!

Did someone mention an android app that helps with solo rpg. I got a chromebook so thought I would try it out. I can't remember the name.

Hey Alex Yari and Chris Stieha, can you post a Discord invite? The one in the pinned post doesn't seem to work for me. Thanks!

Spirit: 4

I know it's a bit generic but this will be my first time playing & I just ran with the idea. That's all I got so far.
Now I need a where & a why for the adventure starting point.

This is an interesting source of motivations for characters in solo RPGs.

This could be a springboard for creating solo rpg plots.

CALL FOR CREATORS!

CALL FOR CREATORS!
The Week Four Challenge: Create a solo game or tool for the community. This can be a full game or RPG, an oracle,
random generator tables, inspirational cards, or even an app or web site.

Here's what I got from scanning the solo communities at MeWe, Reddit, and G+ that I think applies. Did I miss anything that would qualify?

This is my One-Roll Fudge RPG Core system which is now finished and I submit as my project for the SGAM and Fudge RPG NaGa DeMon 2018 challenges. It is Pay-What-You-Want (PWYW). Tell me what you think. I played it and like some aspects about it. I also wrote a setting that needs to be revised in the next month before it's ready.

Any contribution goes to this furthering this game system and the game novel book. This is sort of my "kickstarter".

Wizardry Quill.pdf


In the magical world of Harry Potter, people still communicate through letters. They are written on parchment, and an owl is responsible for carrying your missive, no matter where in the world its recipient is. Is there anything more "QUILL" than that?
So, here it is my homemade scenarios for Harry Potter, all of them about Christmas!

SGAM2018 final stretch! I've love to see some more Story Seed entries. Come on, these little bits are actually fun like popcorn. Grab three images, get inspired, write up a couple paragraphs and bam! You're contributing to a community project and you get your name in a raffle for some swag.

It's time to wrap up those Solo Gaming utilities and other projects for the Week Four challenge. If you have something, post a URL here (or one of the cross posted threads on MeWe or Reddit) and we'll get it into a poll for voting starting December 1st-ish. [That way you get all of November if you need it to finish.]

Also congrats on everyone who did the Week One and Two challenges, some fun stuff there and thank you for sharing.
