Adventure Writers' Room - Brainstorm Adventure Ideas Together with other GMs
We meet in the discord voice chat, and challenge ourselves to improvise an adventure in 2 hours. Our goal is to brainstorm fun ideas and improvise stories together in a chill, lighthearted, no-pressure environment. It's very fun, and usually, by the end of the session, we end up creating a one-shot adventure we can run for our players (or publish).Join our group, and you will learn to create adventures similar to the ones you see on our website. You can learn more about our writing process here.
Story Games
Story games are for people who love improvisation and freeform roleplay. They are typically rules-light, and focused on collaborative storytelling rather than combat and mathy rules and mechanics. These are the games that help us come up with new and interesting ideas, and help us become better storytellers, roleplayers, writers, improvisers.
GMd Roleplaying Sessions and Playtests
We also have your typical roleplaying sessions, where a GM prepares an adventure and runs it for a group of players. As everything else here, it's focused on roleplaying, storytelling, and improv, rather than boardgamey mechanics and combat encounters. The system we usually use is called Mirage, which is designed for this kind of play. But we're also open to playing other systems designed with these objectives in mind (like Fate or Risus).
