Session Zero 0.5 - Back Stories
In this episode, we move from character creation into something a little more narrative. The ideas that started taking shape during character generation — backgrounds, motivations, relationships — are now being brought to life through a short roleplaying session. We’re stepping into the past. What you’re hearing is the backstory — played out as a scene — to help us discover who these characters really are before the campaign begins. It’s unscripted, low pressure, and designed to feel like an authentic in-person session. If you’re new to RPGs, this is a great example of how character-driven storytelling can begin before the game properly starts.Check out us Blokes on our official website. https://www.rpgblokes.comJoin Our Discord Community using the following link, and continue the conversation. https://discord.gg/JyVcd8PNHnNow, it's Time to ....
