Chasing Adventure: The Order

Five sessions of Chasing Adventure by Spencer Moore, one of the designers working on the new edition of Dungeon World. (Hoping to get to Helena Real’s Against the Odds down the line as well.)

“Chasing Adventure is a game about action and drama, tension and payoff, victory and tragedy…. During play, the Adventurers will face down terrible threats, find mythical treasures, meet colorful people, push beyond their limits, and make heartbreaking sacrifices. They will suffer wounds and setbacks, yet they will endeavor to overcome them and adventure anew.”

At the beginning of this series we’ll create some Ominous Forces for the PCs to work against, and jump right into the action of dealing with an Imminent Peril.

NOTE the FIRST: These are 2-hour sessions!

NOTE the SECOND: I’m still learning PBTA, so if watching me fumble around is an issue, you may want to pass.
