Guide to Storytelling
A guide for Storytellers running modern urban games of political and personal horror. It covers establishing a respectful play environment, preparing a believable city as a living setting, and creating non-player characters with connected agendas and relationships. The guide also discusses pacing and narrative structure, table preparation, quick character creation through roles and backgrounds, narration-focused powers, a new Merit, and lesser-known sources of inspiration. It applies to in-person, virtual, play-by-post, chat, delayed, and live games.
