Wow there's definately some stuff in this thread that can help me a lot. I decided to make some notes, a sort of checklist for the next adventure (coming on friday).
Character creation went well today, we ended playing Illuminati (fun game), which a friend of mine brought with him. I was eager to start gaming, but my players weren't actually. I have to check their sheets tomorrow if everything's fine though.
I got a little trick to calm myself down. The trick's called food
, I just eat a whole lot of raisins, nuts, carrots and apples and I'm fine. No being tired anymore. And I need to use eyedrops a lot. (I don't blink enough plus some weird dysfuntion of my eyes, got no clue how to translate that oO)
I decided not to prepare much for the adventure, I did the location, some encounters and the surroundings. I expierienced that a detailed map is worth nothing to my players, they won't go back and explore a cave they haven't been to yet, if they are done with the urgent stuff.
My checklist btw:
- Something to do for everyone
- atmosphere (a few words, nothing more)
- something to fill the gaps (if they take a "shortcut")
- consequences
- XP
Of course, this is just a small amount of all the important stuff.
