The Dwarven Forge concept is directly inspired by [NPC Cast’s Campaign Crucibles](https://npccast.wordpress.com/tag/campaign-crucible/). Aviv is on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/Icel), [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/IcelDotMe/) and [Vanor Games](http://vanorgames.com/). ### The Three Elements (1:23) Aviv: Invasion Eran: A lucky wheel spin Dassi: Inter-generational conflict ### Themes (2:03) Aviv: A foreign foe, completely beyond our understanding. Eran: We spin the item again and again, to get one of several available outcomes. Dassi: An older generation is stuck in their ways while the new generation try to bring about change. ### What Are the Players Doing? (5:10) [Torg](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torg), [Previous dwarven forge](https://dwarves.podiant.co/e/35bb4716dadefc/) Eran: We’re the next generation after the original invasion, when the old guard managed to save our world. We’re teenagers that do not understand this technologies and the whole situation. Aviv: We’re using a reversed engineered technology that we can’t fully control, and so it send us to one of a number of random dimensions. The old guard made a deal with the invaders. Dassi: We’ve found a creature that is important to the balance between dimensions. It’s unique. The structure of the universe based around six dimensions and this creature subvert this basis.

The division is part of the Accords, the original agreement that “saved” our world. Dassi: Hubert Harington the 3rd - British politician that is anti-invader, purist. Eran: “Above Bermingham” - An invader, a “leviathan”, a creature 3 km wide, floating above Bermingham. Not sure if it is a person of vehicle. He’s in contact with various people, including the group. All the leviathans are “above” things, from Dimension Purple. ### Places (21:28) Aviv: A lab located at the site of the “burst” from Dimension Blue, where giant tendrils came from the sky and borrowed into the earth. In Herefordshire. Eran: The shed in Dimension Yellow, the place we’re translocated to when we travel to this dimension. An old, abandoned building, in an area that looks “eastern european” with strange wilderness. Dassi: BII: Bureau of Invasion Investigation, in Portsmite, the site of the “burst” in the Themes, out of which came out a huge red hand, and Dimension Red understands our language. ### Adventure Hooks (26:03) Aviv: Something from the other side activated the translocator and drown us in. We don’t know where we are and we need to escape. Eran: We approach the monks in Dimension Purple which start to question us and our motivations. A psychology-based adventure. Dassi: A crazy fanatic from Hubert Harington’s group got his hands on a translocator and tries to “purify” Dimension Red, and we try to stop them. ### Who Would We Play (30:50) Aviv: Alex Spencer - a boy with career type parents that reads a lot of books and write about the adventures of the group as if they were fictional stories. 13 yo. Eran: Andrea - a girl with self image problems and martial training, the daughter of a military general that wanted a boy. Her mother went insane as a side-effect of the dimensional invasion. Dassi: Curt - a small time drug dealer and burglary, 17 yo. Tried to break into XX's garage when we were tinkering with the translocator. A bastard child of one of the purists and his a domestic worker. ### Game System (37:26) Aviv: [Tales from the Loop](http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/210617/Tales-from-the-Loop-RPG-Rulebook).
