So I had my second round of using the Scrying rules during this morning's speed run episode. This one went smoother than the first, which was fortunate since the first game of the doubleheader finished in just over 40 minutes! Here were my threads and such:
First motif:
- Roasted beasts of questionable origin
- A fountain fed by hot springs beneath the city, surrounded by torches
- An epic duel with the baron's champion
Second motif:
- Being pursued by the tiger-mounted city guard
- Throwing flames from the city fire dancer's torches from the tips of daggers
- Ducking into the shadows as the guards run past
Third motif:
- Drinking ale that you can't afford
- Pulling a well-worn map from a pouch
- Previously unknown missing pieces of a map linking party members through mystery
- The enormous looming shadow of the monkey king
Mysteries:
- What caused the eruption of the geyser?
Morals:
- Watch for signs when you need them most
- Beward of meddling in the wars of other kingdoms
All in all it was another great time, and the episode was the best of the bunch so far. The group got in two games since the first went so quickly, but I only took notes for the first. My goal for the next go-round is to try and get a handle on the silver threads that link my motifs to the groups', but I think I might also take a stab at rewatching the episode when it hits YouTube and seeing if I come up with different motifs when I get some time this week.
Seeing these is pretty great ^_^ Looking forward to the 2nd story if you get the chance.
ReplyDeleteStras Acimovic The streams have been killer, especially yesterday's. It's been a ton of fun lurking along.
ReplyDeleteI'm really digging that folks are embracing the scrying! I need to find some time to do a little scrying myself this week.
