Premise: Fantasy
100 System-Agnostic Roleplaying Scenarios
107 pages. PDF and epub files included
This is a revised edition of a book originally published in 2017, updated and revised to reflect Principia Canonica terminology.
A premise is the heart of a story summed up in a single sentence. It will provide a general overview of what happens, without spoiling anything. A good premise contains, explicitly or by implication, four key elements of the story: who the player characters are, what the goal of the story is, the sorts of pressure that need to be overcome to achieve the story goal, and who the antagonist is.
Each premise provided in this book is more than just a story hook or adventure seed. It is the beginning of a story, your story, that you can flesh out and develop to suit your specific needs. These can be used again and again by varying the details and changing the four key elements.
