A Game of Three Truths

A Game of Three Truths

A suggestion of a game mechanism.

In Horst's game his Company encountered a Bridge Knight, someone of Fey origin. He would not let the Company cross the bridge unless they won in a duel. One of the Knights suggested the Game of Three Truths.

You can listen to the episode here where Horst gives a full explanation and some clarifying details. It starts around 1h22.

My explanation needed some further clarification, so I made the following handy step-by-step guide:


Hope that clears things up.

Woland - A Collaborative Mythic Realm

I rolled a 17 so this is my hex-flower: The realm has 6 holdings, which might make it a little cramped, so let's make this holding essentially a non-player. There should be some potential to be a threat at some later point, but for now the holding isn't muddling in anyone's business. The picture above depicts the holding in a specific hex that needn't be the actual location of the holding, but unless some reason pops up, it will stay there, since that hex is fitting. Holding (first thoughts) The denizens should have little need for outside contact. Which raises the question of what does a holding look like that has almost zero trade. Zombies and ghosts come to mind, but that just might be a vibe for a different project. There might be some inspiration in the stories ...
