NaNoWriMo with a TTRPG Twist: Day 16

Reminding myself that I’m working on these on my terms, which is good but also bad because now I’ve got four to work on today. I’m under no obligation to make sure I do four so as to catch up, but with the way my brain works I am in fact obligated to do exactly that.

Anyway – back to it!

They Lived in the Sky

You and your now-adventuring party remember it like yesterday – the day the sky became a mirror to the world below. It had been raining for days with no break in the clouds—not even a hint of sunlight managed to break through.

One conundrum quickly gave way to another as a mirrored version of the world hanged suspended in the sky. The most senior mages, scholars, and historians are baffled by this unusual, unprecedented situation, and none of the major forces of darkness have claimed to be behind it. Based on intercepted communications, they all seem just as confused and concerned as the world leaders.

What awaited the adventuring party in the world above? What caused this? And what happened when the adventuring party started to search for solutions to this curious, potentially precarious situation?

GM Tools and Tips:

The world in the sky is an exact mirroring of the world the players have become familiar with, so let them enjoy time leading up to their journeying to this strange mirrored world in the sky. Let them establish their characters in the world and what brings them together once this event occurs.

The main conflict can be whatever you’d like, but this is a great opportunity to have the players face down their own party (in some form or another).

Good luck and godspeed!
