<h2>BREATHE LIFE INTO YOUR VILLAINS</h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Pay great attention when portraying the main antagonists of the game, and make
|
||
sure you stay true to their goals and motivations. Just as Fabula Ultima’s
|
||
protagonists are larger-than-life heroes, their adversaries are powerful and
|
||
formidable individuals, who often conceal terrible secrets. Do your best to
|
||
always portray their looming threat and keep the pressure high!
|
||
</p>
|
||
<h2>COOPERATE WITH EVERYONE ELSE</h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
When playing the game, pay attention to what everybody else is saying and
|
||
encourage everyone to play an active role: each participant should get their
|
||
time in the spotlight. Do your best to cooperate with everyone else and make
|
||
sure the play environment is enjoyable and welcoming.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<h2>PLAY TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENS</h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Never force the Players’ hand, and make sure not to “push” them towards a
|
||
specific event: let their actions and objectives guide you instead. Resist the
|
||
temptation to create a predetermined plot — let the heroes’ choices and
|
||
actions tell you what aspects of the story the Players really care about.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
If you're used to other RPGs in which the Game Master controls the evolution
|
||
of the story and prepares scenes ahead of time, let go of that when playing
|
||
this game — here, you must only weave situations around what the Players
|
||
decide to do and add details to the world as required by the circumstances.
|
||
The game gives them plenty of tools to influence and shape the story, up to
|
||
and including the ability to alter plot elements you had previously
|
||
introduced. Embrace this creative flow!
|
||
</p>
|
||
<h2>ASK QUESTIONS, BUILD ON THE ANSWERS</h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Move the action forward by asking questions to everyone else. For example:
|
||
What will you do now? Where can you find this information? How do you feel
|
||
about what happened? Are you willing to risk your life for this? What will you
|
||
tell your mother?
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>Ask plenty of questions, then build on the Players’ answers.</p>
|
||
<h2>LOOK FOR INSPIRATION</h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Stories, ideas, pictures, characters, music, and maps: make sure to take
|
||
advantage of all possible sources of inspiration.
