My BELOVED actual play

BELOVED is a very light rules solo RPG by Ben Lehman. The system doesn’t use any kind of random factor; all is decided analysing possibilities, and all solutions come to life when we find a way to defeat an (almost) undefeatable monster. We must create a Monster in a way that seems the most powerful and invencible one.

In Beloved you are the HERO , from whom a powerful MONSTER has taken his BELOVED ONE.

I am playing the Hero ALVIGAN III, a noble warrior from the Kingdom of Autumnlore. The princess, his BELOVED JHAVI, beautiful as the stars, was taken by the evil dragon , The MONSTER OF THE WINTER. Now She is imprisioned in the Cold Winter Castle.

The MONSTER has the power to control the Winter forces and Water. It can be as big as the Castle itself, ou small as a snowflake.

I am trying hard to beat the Monster…but I can’t find its weakness…Does anyone here has a good idea on how can I fight against this Monster?

The Dark Eye: Guildless – Session 0. Character creation for a guildless mage using fifth edition The Dark Eye rules for a coming solo campaign.

Inspired by Alea Iactanda Est’s outstanding (but too short) solo adventure using the fifth edition Das Schwarze Auge rules, I picked up the English translation of The Dark Eye and decided to use it for my next solo game. To get started, I grabbed…

Busy week last week and going to be another busy one this week. Frustrating that I can’t get at least one episode out, but I am whittling at it lol.

Swinging by to drop off a battle scene. This was written on April 21, 2018, but I never uploaded it. It was simply another one of those quickies to settle angst from the failures of past group plays (e.g. “War Vet vs Rage Zombie” lol).

This one ended rather quickly than originally anticipated. I was in a party of seven: a giant, a dragon, a wood elf, a dogperson (dogfolk?), a dark elf, and myself, a human. This particular scene was a against a roc. Now, looking at the first two parties members in this line-up you would think that we’d have this in the bag, right? We were playing this in GURPS, and my GM didn’t want to pull any punches on our first combat encounter. So… we never actually got to fight it. The dwarven mercenaries with gun took care of /everything/. The GM didn’t want us to die, because I think to them death equals not fun? (If my character cannot run the risk of dying during an encounter. Then I didn’t have fun lol.) So, here I am re-playing that fight in Savage Worlds. Enjoy~! 😀

  The day is cloudy and the winds are brisk. The air is cool but not cold, it being mid-fall. Arden is glad that he will not be sweltering in his chainmail. Egg pulls at his armor and scratches, “Perhaps, I’d cook better in a leather jerkin…” Arden…

Sometimes things sit in my notes forever before get round to posting them. But inspiration finally strikes, and I get them in a fit state to post.

Here, then, is the continuation of my Other Dust / Scarlet Heroes hexcrawl.
