Tonight, Dave and I talk about:

• how to explore a world through the lens of particular objects within it that were pivotal 

• how roleplaying games — tabletop, video, card-based etc — are storytelling engines that both tell a tale and create one out of your experience with them

• and when to disclose what kinds of stories a system could tell from the ones that you, as a Creator, hope that yours players will. 

We hope you enjoy.

Where the Thistledowns Blow, Ep 3: “Flour Power”

Dave joins the folk of the village with his character Bo, and shares his requests for the game as a whole—one of them quite presciently, it turns out, as things would blow. Or for at least one thistledown, as they stand at a threshold.

Where the Thistledowns Blow, Ep 2: “Thresholds”
