Bringing a Little Reality to Fantasy
Today, we officially launch “Tales of Xenia 3: Resurrecting Rashamoric.” In fact, the first dice get cast in just about 4 hours from now.
As I mentioned, especially to my friends around the table, I’m going for broke this time. One such way I’m doing this is having Session 1 begin with a clandestine meeting among like-minded individuals to discuss rebellion referred to as the Council of Common Sense (a riff on Thomas Payne’s Common Senses pamphlet).
However, last Friday, before Session 1 takes place, I mailed a note to all my players' physical home addresses.
Each one is addressed to their character
Each one is from a separate member of the Council of Common Sense
Each one is in a different handwriting (i.e., font)
This was really fun for me, tickling my creative side. And seeing the players get excited to receive them in the mail - unexpectedly so, as I did not tip my hand that they were coming - just fires me up to do more and more to make this a unique and memorable campaign.
It is almost time to begin the epic. I hope you will follow along and enjoy the ride. For spoiler reasons, expect forthcoming updates to be a week or so after they occur in-game.
