EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

So, I mentioned in my intro thread I was running a D&D game, and I'm just so happy with how it's going right now! They took my bait perfectly, it's so awesome!

So in the story, I had a plot event where a random NPC came in injured and was snatched away by some meanie guards. I've also been leaving a lot of bread crumbs by way of tattoos enchanted with an Abjuration-type enhancement (If you don't know the schools, Abjuration is "Protec"). The players (rightly) recognized it as a bit tyrannical, and have been going around asking the locals what they think of the situation, and it's exactly what I wanted from them EEEEEEEEE! They have plans to overthrow her, and it's so perfect; it's exactly how I wanted my story to go, I'm so glad it worked! Now I just need to get to the plot twist; that'll really cook 'em! Get excited; I know I am!

Haha, well done getting your plot to go in the right direction. Did you have a backup plan if it went a bit wrong?

I'll be honest, I didn't, but I tend to flow with what my players do to begin with. Plus, it's super early in the plot, so I still had more plot events I could show them to show them all is not well. I'm just super happy that they immediately did exactly what I wanted. It's so perfect. I love it so much!

[Mr EliteL]

Ah, you had more situations that were going to happen anyway, so that would also help get them to choose to begin their overthrow of those in charge. Well hopefully, but they're already there so yes good on ya.

I suppose you'll continue with the events, perhaps they'll try prevent one of them too if the opportunity arises.
