Getting Started

PLAYING THE GAME

This section is dedicated to running the game and helping navigate through a session.

Game Panels — This is essentially a virtual GM Screen, add here all rules (ex. screenshot of rulebook table) that you will most likely look at during your game session. It can be a list of NPC names, the difficulty roll score, etc…
— This is where you can keep records of your session. I added two templates, one for a Free Roaming type of game where there is no set scenario and another more structured template for Scenario.

WORLD

That’s where most of the magic happens! This part of the space contains everything that will make up your game world.

— All across the game world, I’m using a system of KEYWORD which represents a grouping of some sort, it can be a faction, a species, or anything else that can serve as a category. This would be similar to a tag in notion, but available on all tables and with more control and depth.
— Any person (or group of people) lives or lives in the game world. The info is provided in order to note all the latest news. Any other information should be added to the page itself.
— This can be any object of narrative importance. It is not necessarily a magical or legendary weapon, but rather something that needs to be tracked down. For example, a cargo of Pipe Herbs needs to be delivered within a time limit.
— Any place, from a house to a kingdom, that the players might visit. I used the sub-item system from Notion, meaning that location can have a sub-location, allowing for easier navigation.
— This section contains all bits of Lore learned by the players. It can be a famous battle, a memorable event, or a nice (or particularly disgusting) dish that marked the player.

SYSTEM

This part is mostly empty, as this is where you would add all the entries specific to your game system of choice. As opposed to the WORLD section, I usually add a lot of property to the item in this section (ex. damage, bonus to hit, grip, cost, …) for easier filtering.

— In this table, I used a field of type formula to create a Summary of the entry. This formula is taking several other fields and assembles them into one readable sentence. This will be particularly useful when I want to reference this weapon in another table. As an example, I added in the a related field to select a instead to have several rollup fields for each characteristic of the weapon or having to open the melee weapon, I can use a rollup field to display the Summary which already contains all the information needed.
— In this space, I chose to separate the mechanical aspect of a character from their narrative aspect. If one of the end up fighting, and one of the adversaries’ archetypes can be used instead. It allows for more mobility and clarity as the info for the narration is stored in one place without being drowned in stats for combat.
