Episode 564: Politic Action

<<FIRST     <PREVIOUS     NEXT>     LATEST>>

It's good to have ambition in a game. It's what drives characters to seek adventure. The desire for more wealth, influence, and/or arcane knowledge is the reason a blacksmith's apprentice takes up a sword and leaves town, an elven boatmaker leaves the forest to see the wider world, or an innkeeper's daughter travels to a distant city to seek a wizardly mentor.

And the good thing is you can always go a step higher. Run the kingdom? There's always one next door. Run the world? Try other planes of reality. Or other worlds. Power!

Power! Unlimited power!!!!
