The go...You'd make a fine Dungeon Master. :-)<br /><br />The goal is to just mix and match to your heart's content... NPCs (non-player characters) are the antagonists, the extras, the love interests, and so on -- everyone in the world whose role isn't taken on by a player.<br /><br />Rolling dice is one good way to present you with combinations and permutations that you'd never have come up with on your own. If you're inclined to go along with such randomness, then to make it "work" you've got to fill in the gaps in order to make sense of it.Cygnushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10394890573443379954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-63753090450546412.post-8408609051179107972013-05-28T11:46:26.755-06:002013-05-28T11:46:26.755-06:00I like 5 for the first set, 6 for the second and 9...I like 5 for the first set, 6 for the second and 9 for the third.

As a storyteller, I just like putting those together as my what if? scenario.Suzehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07908805179119217608noreply@blogger.com
