A mystery to himself, Konrad has a vision of his past: Dahlia, the giver of thistles, her hometown of Madrigal. What can it mean? Armed only with these glimpses, Konrad redeems the debt he is owed by Khrist. The pair set out on the long journey north to uncover clues about Konrad's origins. A comically uneventful hex crawl ensues. (Feel free to suggest your favorite hex crawl mechanics) Music p...

My Solo Roleplaying Tools, An Introduction
Переглядів 28 тис.2 роки тому
In Session 0, I give some background on how and why I got into solo roleplaying and the tools needed to start running your own solo rpg sessions without a GM
Hope all is good with you. Miss this content. Putting out such great stuff for the community too
Man I love this series. Binged the entire thing. So invested in this story and the combat was so fun.
il be getting this for sure!!! many thanks for putting this together!
So cool - I hope you have many adventures
This looks really interesting. I must admit that getting into solo play has been a bit overwhelming. I've tried to do as much research as possible but now i'm a bit overwhelmed and just want to play 😂 but don't know where to really start. I love the simplicity and I love that I could make it into a GM screen. I do have one question. Since I'm so new to solo play (but not group play) how does one find an adventure? While I do feel that I have a very vivid imagination and have read a lot of fantasy books, I'm not sure i could totally wing an adventure out of thin air for my first solo.
The first page has Quest generator tables :) with action words, like “defend” or “locate” and then nouns like “person” or “chalice” - and then if you want more detailed info you can use other tables for descriptions. Additionally, the Yes / No oracle chart can help with questions and you can really get into a flow state with the imagination this way. Hope this helps. If you are still struggling, why not start with the opening paragraph of an existing adventure module? Cheers!
Do you have a screen for Sci Fi such as Cyberpunk?
No but I will consider making one
I bought this the other day from Drive Thru Thank you for making such a neat supplement. I'll use it for my DragonLance content.
Good post.
Great tool, love it! Laminated the sheets with some cool fantasy pics to decorate the backsides, clear packaging tape for bindings- makes a great solo game screen.
Awesome!! Thanks for giving it a shot :)
Great video, by the way! Lots of good ideas:-)
Tome 0f Adventure Design going for 199.00 on Amazon..... no can do.
Holy Smokes! Maybe it’s time for me to sell mine ha ! Or u can download my much more usable PDF for $8 on drivethrurpg - It’s called “Tables For One” I’m really proud of it :)
It's been a long time. I hope you're well and come back soon!
This is the best discussion/example of solo role play I’ve seen on UA-cam. Thank you
Thanks a lot! This was exactly what I was looking for
Session 5?
really cool, good work.
This is so fun to watch. Please keep going!
This was cool!
Dude! That idea of opening a book and finding a name is awesome, that’s so nice thanks for this video!
666th like. EDIT: Oh, and 66th comment. And I was just using Tarot for my solo session before I ended up here, reading up on the meaning of 6 in Sefirot and various other numerology systems.
“Siege Engine Pimp” That is all
Maybe it’s just me but can someone tell me how to use the yes/no oracle table? I am a but confused 🤔 Thanks in advance!
Hey - Thanks for your question. So if you have a "yes / no" question you want answered, you first decide on how likely or unlikely it is, then roll on that column and check the Result table on the right. Hope this makes sense!
Its just structured creative writing and for me it is a form of therapy for stress, anxiety, depression, and many other things. I am able to turn my problems in to stories and confront them which has been hugely helpful to me.
That’s great you found an outlet. I find that character creation and rolling dice to see what happens in the world is a bit different from traditional writing as roleplaying offers a specific kind of first-person escape; you are the character etc
Is the TOAD still in print? I can’t find a hard copy anywhere.
I believe so but it’s second edition w green cover. Ebay?
Darn i dont have any money i might have to wait untill im old enough to work
This is petty I know but, you spelled vague incorrectly in the intro. You spelled it vauge. Just an FYI..
It’s Frnech
@@swordssolitude3861 : better then Svedich. 😉
The Uses of Enchantment! Such a wonderful book. I discovered it some years ago and enjoyed reading it. It is a goldmine if you are interested in stories and analytic approach.
Is Konrad going to come back? I miss him!
This is so cool! More videos please!!
One of these days I'll have to get Tables for One and Wolfkiller. I'll have to write about it and then I'll link it here
Wow ! Great ! 😮!?!!!
Interesting but bypassing world building and npc generation would make the “odds decisions” you feed oracles also uniformly random. Without knowing what world system is like, you can’t say ship weapons are likely. The biggest problem I have with suspension of disbelief in rolling like GG does, is the inconsistency. It’s too much Arabian Nights for me. I could never “reason” on a character and its environment and next goal and how to achieve it. At least DND offers a structure on how things react.
It souns cool but, i don't know, isn't it boring to play alone? i mean...its just you talking to yourself, throwing dice around.
It’s as boring as reading or watching a movie or playing a video game
I am new to RPGs and new to Solo RPGs too. I am a 40 Year old Guy without Friends or a Girlfriend. I have interest in RPGs but since i dont have anyone i can play with, i will start with Solo RPGs. The Thing is that i am really interested in Story, in exploring new Lands etc. Can Solo RPG provide me interesting Exploring Adventures?
Absolutely. I take short bullet-point notes as I’m going. Some people prefer to write long passages. Try both and see what you prefer :)
You have cool drawings on your website and nice job on the oracle.
Thank you!
Cant wait till session 5
Print on demand tables for one, p?ease i have no access to a printer
I am enjoying this alot! Your website isnt working.
Print on demand?
I really enjoy this story, and back ground ty. Ps what miniatures do you use?
What is this? This is...YOINK. This is amazing. THANK YOU!
Enjoy!!
I cant find hex crawl using your link. Please recheck , or is there a printed version? Digging this solo play.
Cool ,like to see solo adventures Booga the Gunge says "Hi little doggie man, I booga"
Subbed Will you be offering a print on demand?
Great vids. Really like your process. Looking forward to more.
I love the tables. My only issue is the busy background and greyscale make the tables hard to read. I really wish they were just the tables in black and white. I have a feeling I will be cutting all the tables out and mounting them om white card stock.
It's such a fluid and minimalist set of mechanics you've got going on here - I love it.
Thanks! I spent a lot of time learning tons of bloated concepts before making things this simple
Looks like a great project. I found out that random tables are really good but when you switch theme (from fantasy to SciFi) you need other random tables and when there are too many of them you are stuck. Lately I’ve been using only open questions to get all the information bases on context. This works pretty great because no matter which setting you are in you can get some information.
I was always interested in D&D and TTRPGs but I never knew anyone that played. 2 years ago I discovered some UA-camrs that ran solo rpgs and I was so inspired that I bought some books and I started dropping into the rabbit hole. I mostly use the rules and Mythic GM Emulator. BTW great video!
That last line had me literally laughing out loud :) Brilliant stuff, I think what your channel is doing that others perhaps haven't done for me is giving a real, genuine sense of how a solo game works - in a very entertaining and engaging way. Namely, how it's different to creative writing. Loving the story, by the way - Konrad's awesome :)
This is great, enjoyed watching it a lot - thanks you :) It's interesting because I'm trying to get into solo TTRPG with minimal experience of TRPG at all, save a couple of yahoo group games back in the day and of course the FF gamebooks. I think what's been stalling me is the amount of rules in *any* core rulebook, even those deemed 'rules light'. You seem to have sidestepped that simply by using the core book for character creation alone. After that you've kinda freewheeled it mostly with your basic d00 oracle. Is that the secret do you think? Keeping the core mechanics as simple as possible?
I'm homebrewing a system and it might help me playtest it!
