Consequences tied to player decisions. Big or small they should change the narrative because PCs are impactful. It’s their story after all.

The Bard's Tale! Hands down.

Here’s hoping I get picked to run your special! We all will miss seeing you at GC!

Why thanks for the compliment! And I hope to DM this at GenCon with DDXP track!

Congrats!! So exciting!

And May the 4th be with you as well! Let's celebrate Life Day like the wookiees do!

Six Swords Outta Hell! Loved DMing every minute of it. Of course had to paint a mini to go with the campaign.

Same tho I heard finals are nacho average challenge.

One mechanic I really love is the torch timer in Shadowdark RPG. Torches burn in real time during combat and gameplay. The passage of time expands and contracts a bit in Shadowdark depending on what the characters are doing, but the torch is always there to add time pressure and encourage fast play.
