I continue my step-by-step series on building a sandbox campaign from scratch. Following the framework of Jeff Rients’ 20 Questions, this fifth installment dives into questions 4, 5, and 6 to establish the major power players in the region.
I define the mightiest figures in the land, moving away from high-fantasy tropes to create characters that fit this gritty, historical-fantasy setting.
Key topics discussed in this episode:
The Mightiest Wizard: Why the choice of game system (like Tunnels & Trolls) fundamentally changes the flavor of magic and power for spellcasters.
The Mightiest Warrior: A look at a veteran soldier whose strength comes from grit and experience rather than flashy magical equipment.
The Richest Person: Meet Alfrith, the village's wealthiest resident. He’s a likable but patient man, a petty gambler, and someone who takes the "honor" of a small debt very seriously.
