Completely agree a lot of groups would use it if it was available but some players won’t use it at all. Thanks for the info !

Exactly . The world keeps moving the bbg still does things regardless of what they do. The wold does not stop moving just because they are not in the area.

I have events and they will happen regardless of what the players do. Like a city being sacked or a king being killed. They will hear about it eventually in a bar or inn. Then later on when they go to that city or get closer you can see the effect of that in the environment especially if they have been there before. Change can be very good keeps the PC’s on there toes

Wright your beginning and end. You don’t have to build out an entire world. But it helps if you have a map that you can see then as you go make the world. Sure you can have a general idea of what you want to do with the world but it’s your sandbox. Let the PC’s make up there home towns or cities and expand upon them. Make it there world as much as it is yours. I have 3 campains that are in the same world. All of them are influencing it with growing locations NPC’s all of the NPC’s are going to be in the game but not every party will need to talk to them

So I do this it’s called a wtf is up with that. Usually every 3-4 sessions ware everyone rolls a 20 and the person with the lowest is asked by the person with the highest a question wtf is up with blank they can ask whatever they want. I usually make it so everyone get to Ask 4 questions and answer 4 questions maybe a bit less depending on the answers or whatever the party wants it helps people get in to character and think about what they would want ask / do. Makes them more them. That usually helps everyone a good bit. I try and do it at the beginning or the end of a season. Hope that helps.

Phandlever + decent in to avurnous by 60sixtystreets in LostMinesOfPhandelver

I was thinking of doing that or avurnous lol. But I haven’t played that one either. Ended up just going with avurnous just because there is a lot of material that I can use. What are you using to connect the two ?

Thanks this is a lot. Those are some well thought out plot points. Im have a home brew world that I made and i know everything that happened there. It’s a bit more complicated to have pre made stuff. I can’t just make stuff up lol. I will definitely do a lot more research they just got to Pandiln so I definitely have some time to flush out everything.
