DM Notes: Lakeshore 07
Added 2020-04-28 20:23:34 +0000 UTCAs we rejoin our heroes, they decide to carry out some business before heading to the docks for a visit with the wolves. The result is three individual scenes that really hone in on where each character is at in their journey.
Kitty gets into a fight with her husband when she returns to the apartment to pick up some supplies. It's no secret that I love playing Phillip, with his mix of zeal, bravado, and insecurity constantly on the cusp of bubbling over. Jorie and I worked for a long time on this scene, trying a few different options to see what felt true to the characters and exciting for the story.
Not that the story veered off dramatically, but there were definitely some sections of dialogue where they were a little kinder to each other that didn't make the final cut, and I think that was the wiser choice. For Kitty to come into her own, she needs to face some resistance, and I really loved letting Phillip fly off the handle and launch some insults. Talking trash in RPGs is a lot of fun!
Heading into the werewolf territory, the gang has picked up a lot of clues, and a lot of questions:
- The wolves have split into two factions based around their appreciation (or lack thereof) of Rex Lemaire--but who are the ones leading these movements?
- Rex has ordered a halt on the production of sunshine--but why?
- The anti-Rex wolves have started making their own sunshine, presumably using equipment stolen from Angela's lab--but is it safe?
Hopefully these answers start to reveal themselves as the gang explores more of the city and (naturally) gets into plenty more trouble.
