I have been running my weekly campaign for a year now. With a few weeks missed here and there, we've played roughly 50 sessions, or 115 days of game time. What better way to take stock and celebrate this milestone than post the complete, player-maintained 'Party Assets' Google Doc file, complete with eccentric formatting? (Sadly, there is no list of dead PCs - we have had quite a lot. Another one today, in fact.)
It amuses me to imagine people with no connection to the campaign reading this and being puzzled by it. So here it is. I stress that it is player-maintained. I have no input into this.

Meeting with us every full moon to discuss Druidic teachings (and bring us intel from the inside of the Cults).
Those burial descriptions aren't for PC's? I love seeing what players glean from the DMs description of various NPCs.
ReplyDeleteSome are PCs but most NPCs. They used to have burials for everybody but now most of the time bodies get left behind. They recently went on an abortive mission to recover the body of a dead, favourite henchman, but this itself resulted in about three or four NPCs deaths and a dead PC...!
DeleteWHERE IS MY SMOKEHOUSE REEEEEEEEE
ReplyDeleteSmokehouse and jumbley den not yet completed.
DeleteI thought we hung around in town for the 6 days they took to complete?
Delete"pyramid out the back"; I'm sure I've seen that on RightMove.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. Love it!
ReplyDelete...an underground clubhouse, and Uncle Tom Cobbley and all.
ReplyDeleteI like this. I like this a lot.
ReplyDeleteI love when the PC 'party' has a base of operations and various things they own and have access to beyond the weapons at their sides and equipment on their back.
May have to write one of these up sometime for one of my groups.
Very cool noisms!
Our party has a .doc built out in sheets. A ship, crew manifest, vessel ancestry, cargo, port of call documents. My bard founded a 'trade' exchange. Kept track of the sweet stuff but leveraged the 'loot' to finance expos. 50+ sessions in, the business and the ship are their own meta NPC of sorts. Often having agency where we wouldn't otherwise in certain circumstances.
ReplyDeleteIs this a b/x-esque game?
ReplyDeleteI find this very inspiring!
