#RPGaDAY2025 DAY 10: ORIGIN
This is the tenth day of #RPGaDAY2025 and the prompt today is origin. Leading up to this prompt we have examined what our villainous cult of villains is doing with their villainy, and we have looked at their motivations in being so vile. What we have not yet brought out for consideration are why on Earth, and particularly on Earth as compared to Yuggoth, such a cult would form in the first place. Let’s do that today, shall we?
#RPGaDAY2025 DAY 9: INSPIRE
This 9th prompt presents itself to me along several fronts. First, it asks me to consider the players when choosing to accept the pitch for this campaign, and their characters when acting, reacting, and interacting within it. It also asks me to consider myself and what will keep me reaching for more and better in my role as the GM.
#RPGaDAY2025 DAY 8: EXPLORE
This is the 8th day of #RPGaDAY2025. Most, but not all, of the prompts this year will be put into the campaign pitch we are modelling the development of in ways that affect all of the players directly, but for this one, I think it’s time to take a step to the side to get our bearings, assess where we are and have been, and then fix our eyes on a star which shines down on roads less traveled.
#RPGaDAY2025 DAY 7: JOURNEY
This is the seventh day of #RPGaDAY2025 and the prompt today is journey. It is this sort of prompt which fills me with hope that some day, love will find you and break the chains that bind you. While we are waiting for that happy moment, however, let’s consider how the prompt for today can inform and improve our campaign pitch for Leagues of Cthulhu.
#RPGaDAY2025 DAY 6: MOTIVE
The sixth day of #RPGaDAY2025 means we need to consider our motives~
