So I'm still new to the hobby of solo role-playing, and sometimes I still get stuck, or maybe just want a richer deeper experience. I was thinking, maybe it would be cool if a veteran role player would come over to my house and sit down at my table and help me out.
So I wonder, what would this veteran do? Probably ask me some questions. After all, they can't help me if they don't know about my game. Ah there's the problem, I don't know enough about my game.
So what would they want to know about? Perhaps they would ask me questions about my world, how magic is handled, what's the location or region like that I'm in, what are the factions, who exactly is my character, what is society like, and what's out there in the wilderness when you want to travel?
Perhaps that conversation would look something like this:
World and Politics
Q: 29 Are there any non-official factions with some influence?
A: 52 Limited, insufficient, lacking, incomplete, missing, Army, troops, soldiers, mercenaries, recruits
Magic and Technology
Q: 49 Is it possible to store, reproduce, or share them?
A: 05 Call, rally, reunite, meet, group, summon, gather, Chemical, alchemical, biological, elemental, organic

A: 33 Take, steal, raid, sabotage, secure, confiscate, get, Money, supplies, resources, wealth, assets, surplus

A: 23 Offer, give, provide, present, gift, grant, trust, Deadly, dangerous, toxic, decadent, sick, poisonous
Relations and Society

A: 93 Civilized, urbanized, elegant, decorative, organized, Harm, damage, blood, injuries, pain, suffering

Situational
Q: 43 Would we feel any esoteric or divine forces in here?
A: 61 Numerous, filled, quantity, together, grouped, Desolation, absence, loneliness, emptiness, void
Now I didn't fudge any of these numbers. In fact I rolled all 16 before I looked up the first one. I could've/should've rerolled some. It's interesting that it ended up being so faction focused. Which is awesome because that's something I've been wanting to implement more into my games.
