I love your writing! And tables! I’ve said it before but needs to be said again.

Thanks Robin! That means a ton! Sadly there won't be too many tables in this series, but I'll be announcing something in a few days to a week that has quite a few tables :)

This is awesome! Really enjoy finding more inspiration for my SoloPlay stuff.

I love your use of footnotes by the way. I may have to borrow that for my Solo TTRPG blog at some point.

Thanks for reading! I’m glad I can provide some inspiration.

The footnotes are super useful for some things. In the next entry, I use footnotes for DM specific things but combat rolls will be in-line with the narrative.

Love it so far, very engaging. This is a solo play campaign correct? Do you use fate to determine only the group actions?

Thank you for the kind words! It is a solo play campaign. I have been using Mythic GME 2e's Fate Check to determine how the group, or part of the group, would respond to certain environmental or narrative situations. For the individual PCs, I created a couple traits for each one that I use to determine how they would act on their own (e.g. Arthur is cautious and loyal; Bertram is jovial and protective; Poppy is aggressive but caring; Blanche is reserved but inquisitive). If a situation arises where I'm uncertain of how an individual PC would react based on those traits, I will put it to the Fate Check to decide.

Thanks for reading! Have at it with the Gloamtide map. If you need a copy of it (not sure how substack handles image downloads) just let me know.

That sounds epic! I can adjust the map to a 90° orientation and add tentacles if you want! Even give it a grid
