GM Tip: Reuse themes and motifs. Repetition with variation gives your world a rhythm, builds symbolic weight and helps reinforce mood and meaning.

I break my Chronicles into 8-10 Episode "Seasons". Mentally, I prefer seeing S2E8 (Season 4 Episode 8) rather than Episode 38. Especially in our current "Binge Watch a Season" culture thanks to Netflix.

With my world of Darkness games I offer bits of the player economy with donations. 5 dollars here add an essence to a Feral in Chronicles of Darkness, or force a rouse check in V5 for 10 dollars kinds of things. The more interactive the better,

I need advice from other Long Form Actual Play Storytellers. How often should I renumber my sessions at 1. Every few story arcs, defined seasons or other?

For context I am coming up on session 20 of Candle int he Mead Hall and it seems hard for new people to onboard.

How do you handle it when the dice completely derail your planned encounter?
#ttrpg #dnd #rpg #meme

A six-panel meme titled "GMs after an accidental TPK" showing a man in period costume going through stages of realization: first saying "I won", then "I won ??", followed by "WAIT A MINUTE", then "I'M NOT SUPPOSED TO WIN", next "LET ME SEE THE SCRIPT", and finally looking down at papers labeled "medium difficulty encounter".

GM Tip: While there's no need to prepare every detail, don't under-prepare because you were afraid your efforts would be wasted. Nothing you make is ever wasted. You can use it later, in this campaign or the next. Even if you never use it, the practice still made you a better GM.

🌒 The night in Winchester holds its breath.
Bloodied lords stagger home, queens wither in their velvet beds, and a false king wears another man’s face.
Tonight the Praetorian shadow of Arcadius falls across the Amber Veil. Will Winchester bend, bargain, or burn?
