Update
Heya everyone!Just wanted to let you all know I'm a bit late with a new SoloRPG post because I'm down with the flu for quite a few days now. As soon as I feel better I'll catch things up! Hope that works for everybody. Thanks for your patience and cheerioJohn
Murder most Foul
This week I really wanted to play some adventures featuring investigating some mystery or another. However, only using an oracle to generate clues and define the mystery can often lead to jumbled results, and not really give you the exciting feeling that 'you are on to something'.This got me...
Tiers update
Greetings dear patrons,Just a short update to let you know I made a small update of the current tiers that shouldn't affect your current tier rewards, but will hopefully make the first tier a little clearer. (there are no $1 patrons)- Solitary Footman tier: now grants acess to all Adventure seed...
The Boundary
I had been toying with the idea of a simple story driver to kick off a mini-adventure series featuring my human ranger character. After some brainstorming, I decided to roll up some oracle results (descriptives and actions) and compile them into a new Oracle map to fuel your imagination during solo ...
The Bladed Prison
"You smile as you look down at your belt. Things have been looking up recently. A pouch heavy with coins, and a beautiful new sword riding on your hip. Those dice certainly favored you last night in the Coalcracker roadside inn.The rowdy adventurers you won the sword from claim they found it in ...
Kobold Hollow
"Every village has its dark place nearby that frightened children whisper stories about. A place that holds something unseen. Hard to define, yet eerily present. Kobold Hollow is located just a brisk walk away from the village, in a muggy peat bog harvested for fuel used during harsh winters. ...
The Starfall Reach
As work progresses on my NPC conversation result engine, I needed to blow off some creative steam and try a direction I hadn't explored before in solo play.The result is several evenings of fun using this map I put together of the Starfall Reach, a region recently devestated by a mysterious fall...
Goblin Battle Tactics
When I'm running my solo games, I like to be suprised by what happens storywise. When I use a GM emulator and oracle system, I find this happens quite naturally.However, most of my games are focused on story and characters, rather than pure combat. Although, i certainly love a good heroic battle...
The Bramble Tournament
"Travel through the King’s Forest has proven to be rather uneventful. Old oaks form a canopy of otherworldy beauty that shelters you from the midday sun.Your mind drifts, accompanied by the peaceful sounds around you. The stories of Fey folk living within this forest do not seem so far-fetched...
Roadside Encounters
This matrix for generating interesting roadside encounters came into existence as I was looking for a system to generate believable encounter results, that were also somehow linked to my custom story experience.And into being sprang a fun experiment with pre-categorizing table generation according t...
The Ghost of Harrow House
Sometimes I like to flip through my old RPG material in search for inspiration. Its great looking through those old modules and boxed sets. One of my favorite sets is the First Quest 2nd edition AD&D boxed set. It had everything, great art, a CD that really gave a realistic view of playing the game,...
The Thrill of the Chase
I like making one page custom mechanics as tools to drive the story of my solo sessions forward. This lets me combine mechanics, and pick and choose them from a larger collection as my character's story unfolds.The Chase table I orginally made for a rough ride across the Dalelands in the Forgott...
The Homunculus Heist
"You were hired by a trusted middle-man to steal a small stone statue from a powerful wizard and deliver it to a mysterious client waiting in a nearby vilage. Breaking into the wizard’s tower went like planned, and grabbing the statue was easy enough. However, now you fear the wizard has sent ...
The Vile Fungus of Zragim
"The giant ant nests of the Desert Borderlands were nothing but a minor nuisance to the nomadic tribes and lone travelers of the sands. This all changed with the arrival of Zragim the necromancer and his insidious fungus.Zragim had cultivated the most rare and deadly fungal spores in a disgustin...
