Bonus: Tools to help you build stories together: Timeskip & Artefact!
Show notes
This week, Fiona is joined by guest cohost Ty from Side Character Quest once again to discuss two different RPG tools/games to help supplement worldbuilding when running campaigns: Timeskip and Artefact.
- Timeskip by A.A. Voigt is a collaborative worldbuilding tool for jumping characters from a previously-established tabletop campaign into the future. Together with your table, imagine new outfits, new jobs, and even new family members that arrive in your characters' lives as time continues to pass. Furthermore, Timeskip allows each player to make choices about significant factions or NPCs in your campaign, altering them as well as their characters.
- Artefact by Jack Harrison/Mousehole Press is a solo TTRPG game of legendary items and transient heroes. In the classic dungeon crawl, you follow the lives of adventurers as they overcome challenges to gain prestige and, most importantly, magical treasures. But what were those treasures doing before the adventurers came along? How many aeons have passed, in silent darkness, since they were last used?
Other games mentioned: Blades in the Dark and Alice is Missing.
