In a campaign like Infinite Cabal, I can see how the projector limit would serve well. I need to read Cabal again. Intrigued by The Unity. Feel like elucidating or should I just read the site? Last edited by Benway; 06-15-2018 at 04:22 AM. Reason: to avoid creating a new post |

They are the archetypical world of bald-headed post-humans living in elegant domes in beautiful landscapes. They were inspired by some of the SF that John W Campbell wrote as "Don A Stuart", notably Twilight and Forgetfulness. The PCs have fairly strong evidence that there are only four "leading-edge" worlds at present. They have the testimony of a dragon, known as "Flamefang," who lives on the astral plane and appears to be a Cabal Lodge in his own right, that the number has varied over time, but they did not enquire into details. Incidentally, is your username a William Burroughs reference? Burroughs may be a useful source if you want even more fractured realities.

Re: [IW] Our campaign and our version of The Secret
I should point out that the log is written by one of the characters. I will sometimes ask for particular names or facts to be recorded, and correct misunderstandings that would be obvious to the characters' senses, but the interpretation is by the character, and the writing by her player.

Re: [IW] Our campaign and our version of The Secret
crunchy goodness snipped
Indeed it is. Benway is the party NPC. I was listening to a Burroughs class lecture at Naropa while I was statting him up. A seems a good fit for a former organlegger/wetware hacker. The username was off the top, not being able to think of anything else. I've read most everything by WSB. Partial to the Cities of the Red Night cycle. |

Re: [IW] Our campaign and our version of The Secret
The best line I've ever heard anybody use to describe something of the sort was "It's like a permanent feeling of, well, your language doesn't have a word. But it's a wonderful emotion, like joy or amazement or agony." We didn't take that offer either.

This has actually prompted me to create a log for our campaign. After we parted with two of the players, we retconned the plot so the whole story is still relatively fresh in my mind. |

Re: [IW] Our campaign and our version of The Secret
A log is really helpful with a long and complex campaign. Roger does an excellent job of this one, and for his own campaigns.
