This is quite cool and usable as a locale for fantasy or sci-fie.

I did a different treatment of radiation in Fantasy with my Forge of Woe submission, http://strolen.com/viewing/The_Forge_of_Woe

A great gaming article!

I tended towards more sandbox type campaigns as I was firmly in the fly by the pants mode, but if I were to run a new campaign, I would definitely use some of the ideas here. Go to Comment
The Pocket Realm of Brocschtal
Locations  (Area)   (Mountains)
valadaar's comment on 2012-06-26 02:51 PM
I think it an interesting realm, but it feels very artificial.

To me the behaviour of the humans seems odd. Given this type of threat, I would expect quick consolidation into heavily fortified camps, with constantly posted guards. They may have started out idyllic, but the humans I know would rail against this quickly. Ghouls would not be entering people's houses in the middle of the night unless they already cut through defences. Those outside fortified walls would be being plain silly, or kept out by those with walls - not once the nature of the threat became clear.

Why would they not burn every corpse? I would expect this would prevent ghoul reproduction pretty quickly.

Its cool, but the population's reaction to its situation seems off to me.

Np - i personally hate those types of people. I can't my head around some of those beliefs and such defeatists bring my blood to a boil. :)


 


Also, having read much of game of thrones recently, my head is filled with characters of brutal pragmatism.

The Hammer – The Builder for Unique Clients

Perhaps he puts in a good-old dead-man's switch to protect himself. If he dies, various destruct mechanisms are invoked.

Plots could write themselves easily around this point - perhaps an anti-hero, learning of this 'feature' chooses to invoke it by popping off Mr. Hammer. While this would have the effect of destroying multiple villain headquarters, the fact that some are located in populated areas - and could be construed as military provocations that could cause war - means that this would have to be stopped.

I disagree. There are many subs that are not much different then this, apart from being fictonal or fantasy related. This is without considering the quality of the sub.

Not a value sub, maybe. Challengable - no.

Seriously, i dont think this is why we have the option of challenging subs.

valadaar's comment on 2012-06-17 04:58 PM
Indeed. There would need to be some limitations to prevent this from having a huge impact on ones world.

Perhaps the breach of time this item brings attracts other, dangerous, attention.

Nice item, though there needs something from making it too easy to get the secrets of the past.

Of course those with secrets to hide would seek - quickly - to control or destroy such an item.

I think this is a very cool item, especially to give low-level characters a second chance.

For game systems where death is largely irreversible, the god could collect on the debt while they are living. Go to Comment
