Livingdice Podcast Launches! Episode 1–The Plot
The Livingdice podcast is now live! After 10 years of writing about role-playing games, tabletop games and geek culture in general, LD is moving into the audio realm! My cohost and I dive right in to the most critical element of any role-playing game. The plot. Get it right and create a campaign for the ages. Get it wrong and suffer the ultimate humiliation; bored players! Forget the mechanics, let the rules fall away as we discuss interesting approaches on plotting a role-playing game campaign. Step away from the “mysterious man in the tavern offering a job” plot hook trope and try something fresh…the drunk tank!
Key elements of a plot:
Introduction
Rising Action
Climax
Falling Action
Resolution
