Next session of King for a Day will have me introduce the poem 'Heart of Winter' to the crew. I'll be adding in enough plot lines to throw them of the search for Skye and Lothian for a while because I need to up the ante in disappearances. Going to send them on wild chases through the Fenwood in search of artefacts and have 'm meet Renkii and Midac. #kingForADay #ttrpg #cypher

Showdown at Huntley Keep tonight. What will my adventurers do?
If you had one hour to write one law that the whole world would adopt, what law would you write?

Running a King for a Day campaign in Cypher at the moment and whale, this makes for a great game.
So far the players have multiple threads weaved in to the past six sessions. 'Wizard's Omen' is what drove them here, but 'The Missing' and 'Blood Expansion' threads are constantly popping up. I haven't even begun most other plotlines, though there has been a lot of foreshadowing. 1/2
Things are heating up in my Shadow of the Weird Wizard / King for a Day campaign. They stumbled into a major subplot, and are now thinking about bringing justice for century old crimes.
It’ll be interesting to see where it goes from here.
Thompson Twins! I forgot about this song - it’s good! 🤩#ILikeToWatch #KingForADay
King For A Day
Shadow Of The Weird Wizard
Been a busy couple weeks so I’ve barely had time to prep for tomorrow. Still need to generate a few magic items for the snake men stash, figure out some visions for my priests, and what news/events/rumors for when they get back to town.
Also they will be noticed by the regent, who will require an audience to see what they are doing in “his” valley.

Have next game tomorrow. Being a sandbox, I feel over prepared and under prepared. Over if they go a particular way, but any other way it’ll be improved time.

Needed some cave maps for the crags, and remembered I have an excellent pdf from 0one Games that’s an expanded Caves of Chaos (B2).
I’m not going to have them near each other, and just randomize which ones they find first. It’s just a map with a few words to suggest what is in each, so I have to customize. But more than enough caves to explore.

Gm brainstorm, my players don’t read the responses.
Looking for suggestions of weird and strange rooms to be in a creepy manor/wizards lair.
What have you got for me?

Shadow of the Weird Wizard
King for a Day
I am as ready for tomorrow’s first session as I’ll ever be. I managed to make index cards for every NPC in the book.
Being at the start of a sandbox, I don’t know what they will do first. But I’m excited to find out.

King for a Day
I’m excited there’s only six more days before our next session. I still feel under prepared, but I’m getting there.
Need to brainstorm specific things for each character. Having six in a group it is hard to make sure everyone gets some spotlight, but I try.

Shadow of the Weird Wizard
King for a Day
Worked on more NPC index cards for my game. Wrote up about 20, bringing my total around 65. Which is about 1/3 of them. Got everyone from the first town and the keep, not even halfway through the second town yet.
Not that I’m even certain they’ll meet most of them, but taking notes helps me remember and get familiar with everything in the setting.

King for a Day
I can’t say much here, the eyes are watching.
Started work on a prop for my game. It’ll be at least a month before they find it. But I’m having fun working on it when inspiration hits.
It’s a little journal they will (hopefully) find.

Shadow of the Weird Wizard
King for a Day
Every day I read a little more to get familiar with the adventure. I need to start making a list of ready rumors. Started working on a prop, but I can’t say more here.
Pulled out my copy of the Poetic Edda to get more tales for when they see the storyteller again.
What I don’t know is what their first combat encounter will be.

Shadow of the Weird Wizard
King for a Day
We made characters and had a short intro session. Now I know the party.
Two human fighters
Two human priests (both of Sky Father Woden’s faith, but only following his son Thunur, the other his son Wyr)
Two dwarves mages (siblings, the brother a technomancer, the sister a necromancer)
They met a few people in Compton. They already hate the place.

Shadow of the Weird Wizard
King for a Day
Off for our session zero. People are still deciding on concepts, but I think we’ll have mostly humans and a pair of dwarves brothers. It’s good to be gaming again.
