Work, work, work...

It's all getting there now. The house is sealed, signed and delivered! Well, actually, none of those, but we have agreed, and the signing is on Monday, so a good part of the matter is now behind us. If there is anyone interested out there, I could write about all the complications of buying a house. Just let me know! There is the matter of where to look for houses, what to look for, what to avoid. Then, the process of the realtor, the contract signing, the contact with the bank, finances and all the pitfalls. And of course, finally, the happy success story. Like I said, lemme know.

Unfortunately, this weekend I am succumbing to the most irritating cough, and it saps the strength right out of me. Will attempt to comfort myself now with some Tomb Raider on the playstation, but it seems hopeless. Still, the Sun is peeking through, so it just might be a terrific day to get outside with the goggies and roam the lands. That will most definitely cheer me up!

Now, time to relax. Been a while since I had time off and I intend to fully enjoy it! See you soon!

Enchance your roleplaying

Always remember that someone is watching.  Enhancing your roleplaying Some challenges for the avid GM Improvisational-style challenges are fantastic for fostering creativity and quick thinking, as well as providing a new depth to connection between the player and the character.  Encourage spontaneity. Force players to react to unexpected situations without overthinking. This can help stay in character and make authentic decisions on the fly, without optimising their thoughts.   Foster collaboration. Players should build on each other's actions and cues and ideas, creating a shared narrative that is richer and more dynamic.  Character depth. By focusing on emotions, physical actions or hidden motivations, the player can help himself get a stronger sense of who the character is, beyond the stats on the sheet.   Problem-solving under pressure. High-stake situations requiring the players to solve problems creatively without relying to pre-planned strategie...

Mål och Moralkompasser

Mål och moralkompasser Hur använder man materialet?  För moralkompassen, ange siffan för vilken personlighetsegenskap det gäller, och sedan 1 till 10 för var på skalan karaktären befinner sig. 1.1 betyder tex en med lägsta möjliga samvete och 5.10 är en som håller sanningen i högsta möjliga aktning.  Moralkompass  1. Samvete. Visar på nivån av aktning man visar för samhällets normer under rådande tid. På den lägre änden så går man från att vara rent ohövlig till att bli mer brottslig och samvetslöst kanske våldtar, mördar och rånar. På den högre änden så är man artig och lyder inte bara lagen utan "vad som är rätt", såsom seder och normer.  2. Arbetsmoral. På den låga sidan har vi latmaskar som undviker arbete till alla pris och kommer alltid försöka få andra att utföra jobbet åt dem. Kan till och med gå så långt att riskera liv för att maska. På den höga sidan har vi de som utför sina plikter med vigör, som fyller sina dagar med aktiviteter och träning och underhåll...

Enhance your roleplaying part II

  Enchance your roleplaying part II tricks of the trade I was listening to my favorite RPG podcast, "Ain't Slayed Nobody" and was reflecting on the interplay between the character and the player. The pod has a lot of improvisational focus and the players are almost always extravagantly skilled at this concept.  Building on each other  One of the major rules for improvisational theatre is one a good player and Gamemaster should internalize as well - Don't say no! Say yes, but... and add to the story.  If other players are attempting to use something against your character, the natural impulse is to feel degraded or overruled and to resist. Experiment with allowing the manipulation, and allowing that to add to your character. I was listening to one pod where one characters was humorously ganged up on and had his pride destroyed, as the other characters sedated him and put parasites on him, resulting in the sedated character wetting himself with the relaxed bladder cont...
