Riffing thread

We'll use this thread for riffing ideas about the Game in general: The Clan, it's members, adventure ideas, heroquests and myths.

I'd like everyone to be part of the process, especially when it comes to the Clan and the myths of your people.

I run games full of spirits and heroquests, which take place both in the real world and also the Hero plane. When adventuring your characters can 'remember' an appropriate myth that is relevant to what you are doing and invoke it. This will garner you possible benefits and boons to help you over come your obstacles.

But beware for enemies can do the same.

The start of the game will take place not long after Sacred time when you each became adults.

Re: Riffing thread

Everyone will be playing Tribal braves, just out of Sacred Time and their initiation as Adults.

No one will be shaman's apprentices....yet. Those of you who wish to follow this path mention it here and you will have been marked by the Shaman's for further study. I'm planning on running a series of short adventures and then a year or more will pass, enabling training as Shamans, warriors, healers or whatever to take place. Then we can have some more fun and lead into our cult initiations where relevant.

I'll post a list of various spirits that as Shamans you can follow, though the Three Feathered Rivals will be important.

There will be Spirit societies which you can all join.

I like the idea of the rivals all joining forces to save the clan/Tribe/country.... eventually.

Re: Riffing thread

So Beast riders.

I'm thinking that before the Battle of Moonbroth 1610 your Clan lived happily on the Bison Plains, between Tada's High Tumulus and Shadows Dance. A place of plenty and perfectly situated to raid Sartar.

You traded at Adari a wild frontier town where both Aldryami (elves) and Uz (trolls) frequented. Founded in the First age, it has been sacked and rebuilt many times. Pavis himself is said to have come from here.

The Pairing Stone was the source of your Orlanthi/Dark Eater worship. They take their name  from two large stones which it outside the oasis. 7m tall, one plae blue and the other pale brown. Both Praxians and Orlanthi say that an important wedding took place here in the Golden Age.

But after the defeat at Moonbroth your people were forced East in to the Wastes.

I'm thinking that your travels have taken you to the South following the grazing over the last year and a half, thus putting you close to the Southern part of the Zola Fel river. Over the next few years there will be lots of activity there with an influx of settlers, the building of Corflu and other such stuff.

You could then have happy times raiding all of those folk if you so wished.

Thoughts?
