🎲 To The Point


To The Point is a Roleplaying game that relies on the strategic use of skill points. It does use a few six sided dice rolls as needed, but the points are more important.


In this game, Skill Points are used to help accomplish all of the various actions that occur during an adventure.


You will decide what points are to be used for the completion of a given task. All of the various points are limited so you must choose wisely or you may run out, just when you need them most.


Types of points:


There are many different types of points within the game, but the big three to keep track of, are Mind, Body & Spirit.


There is also another Skill called Luck.


These Skills make up your life force. 


If your Body should reach zero, then you have come to the end of the line and your character will join their ancestors in the afterlife.


If your Mind reaches zero then you cannot think and will not survive long.


If your Spirit reaches zero then you will not have the will to continue.


If your Luck reaches zero then you will be living dangerously.

πŸ€– ChatGPT

 

I asked Chat GPT to generate some random Encounters for a Roleplaying Game.


Here is the output.


Certainly! Here are some random events that you could use in a solo roleplaying game:

  1. A sudden storm blows in, forcing you to seek shelter or continue on through the rain.

  2. You stumble upon an ancient ruin, hidden in the wilderness. What secrets might it hold?

  3. A band of hostile raiders attacks you, seeking to steal your supplies and equipment.

  4. A friendly NPC crosses your path, offering to travel with you or provide valuable information.

  5. You discover a hidden cache of treasure, but it is guarded by a powerful monster or trap.

  6. A mysterious stranger approaches you with a dangerous proposal. Will you accept or decline?

  7. You fall ill with a strange disease or curse, and must find a cure before it's too late.

  8. An unexpected earthquake or avalanche traps you in a dangerous situation.

  9. You stumble upon a secret cult or organization, and must decide whether to ally with them or oppose them.

  10. A powerful artifact or magic item falls into your possession, but it comes with a dangerous cost.

These are just a few examples of the many random events that could occur in a solo roleplaying game. Depending on the game you are playing, you could generate these events using dice rolls, random tables, or your own imagination.


You should give the AI a look. It could be a useful tool for Solo Gaming.

🎲 You're Missing Half The Fun

 If you are only playing a character in a roleplaying game then you are missing half the fun.

I saw a post on reddit the other day asking about what system to use for a home-brew setting. 

I answered why not get your friends together and come up with your own set of rules?

I would think it could be great fun for a group of friends to jointly create a rules system for a home-brew game. 

If you are going to be creating the setting anyway, why not go the extra mile and create the rules for it as well. Why not take a stab at the art work too. 

A great deal of the fun for me in the RPG world is the creativity of it all. Everyone has some level of creativity inside wanting to break free. Building a RPG is a great way to release that creativity. There should be absolutely zero constraint on the starting possibilities. 

As you build you will refine it. Lay out every idea on the table for examination. Test it. Play it. Does it fail or pass? If it fails, then tweak it a bit and try it again. It could be great fun being a part of a totally new creation.
