Decline & Fall
A story-design guide for creating tales of tragic descent. It focuses on protagonists who begin with fortune, status, or moral strength before losing everything through corruption, greed, foolishness, or other harmful choices. The book covers the elements of a decline-and-fall narrative, including character motivation, consequences, empathy, and suspense. It also applies three-act structure and three-phase campaign design to roleplaying stories, helping groups develop a clear beginning, middle, and end beyond a simple cycle of combat and treasure.
