    Thanks for the video! I think Artefacts is such a good idea to be “borrowed” and applied to other RPG sessions. Knowing you always give your characters a Trinket, this system seems to be a good way to give the trinket some history, or the history is only revealed bits by bits over time (maybe playing Artefact in parallel?) to provide a dynamic Hook to the game.
    Imagine the trinket slowly reveals itself to be something like the Ring in the Lord of the Rings during a game session.
    Or
    The protagonist is being hunted for this trinket but it turns out the magic within the trinket has long faded or the power only reveals in curtain conditions.
    These are classic fantasy story lines but I have been struggling to create them dynamically during game sessions, either I have to write down a story plot before even playing or the trinket’s importance fades over time and becomes another item in the inventory.
    This game system seems to be the perfect solution to the above problems.

      Yes you are totally right about all this. In this vid I mentioned I’d take the artifact and put it in another video but in my mind I was thinking the artifact would be a big deal from the beginning. I hadn’t considered using it as the trinket-but that’s a much better idea for all the reasons you state.
      And yes I totally agree that using this game along the way with other sessions-either to create a trinket at the beginning or to build out the history of a found object-is a great idea.

    I started a game earlier this year but never finished it, so watching your step by step guidance motivates me to finish it. I had a character that rolled on a treasure chart and received an anti-magic ring, so I started there. Last month, I finally worked the ring into a scene during a pivotal combat moment, so it's about time to complete its history. Especially since it has started talking to my hero. I think the next scene will probably be entirely played with Artefact as a dream about the first keeper. Thanks for the video.

      It sounds like you had a really great start so I am glad you managed to put your artifact into a session and will come back to its history. I realize that I was also playing older version of this game and have enjoyed it so much that some day I will be showing, if not playing, the newer version in an upcoming video

    Thank you for this one. I have been mulling over whether to pick up artefact for a while. It was good to see it in play. I think that you’re right to bring in additional material to help with the story. As for how long you to wait until the next Keeper depends on whether you want to continue the story of the archivist’s murder in which case it would be picked up within a year or so, or wait longer and continue afresh. In either case, I am sure that the story isn’t over yet... (-:

      So true about the archivist. As mentioned in the vid, I'm going to use this artifact somewhere, somehow....

      I’m afraid I don’t have any advice there but there are lots of easy self-publishing options like drivethrurpg for example. I do advise hiring an actually graphic designer for her cover and interiors. I did that for my book WANDERINGS and feel it was money well spent
