PlotRelay
- Back to FluffRelay.
Format
The PlotRelay works as follows:
- Title - the first person comes up with a title for the plot. This is equivalent to choosing a theme, and thus should be evocative without being too defining. "A Blaze Of Glory" is an example of such a title..
- Prelude (Dawn) - the second person devises the circumstances in which the adventure takes place. This may include the location, political climate, major antagonists or nature of the group, as necessary / desired.
- Challenge (Zenith) - the third person then describes what sets the plot in motion, an initial encounter event that grabs the characters' attention.
- Development (Twilight) - the fourth person elaborates on the significance of the Challenge, and describes the main body of the plot as it develops.
- Conclusion (Night) - the fifth person writes in a suitably apt final confrontation or resolution, or several different possible ones, that would culminate the plot.
- Epilogue (Eclipse) - the sixth person adds on the possible impact of concluding the plot in different ways on the region or people involved; if a moral is desired, it's added here. That person then archives the Relay, copies out the template and adds the Title for the next theme, starting the cycle again.
The template is stored here.
