August 2022 Player-made Story Prompt:


The monster is dead, and in its wake it left a broad stroke of destruction. But after the killing blow was delivered, a strange phenomenon was observed: a shadow fell over the stretch of land where the monster died, leaving it completely without light. Darkness seems to have seeped into the very earth, creating a strange and otherworldly landscape.

Perhaps your character was there to see it happen, perhaps they have only heard of it from others who were.

What does your character think about it?

  1. Your character sees an opportunity. What kind of treasures or experiences could be gained inside? Perhaps it could be useful for something. Your character gains +1 Power.
  2. Your character condemns it. Clearly it is a dangerous consequence of letting mages run free. Your character gains +1 Corruption.
  3. Your character doesn’t really have an opinion of it. Strange things happen now and then, and it’s better left to be dealt with by those who know what they’re doing. Your character gains -1 Cost. If your character already has 0 Cost, you may choose to take a point of Corruption instead.
  4. Your character thinks it should be studied. Perhaps careful research could reveal something about it. Your character gains +1 Discipline.
