Cool example. I agree that the narrative mechanics are very useful in running a no prep game, and I've ported them over before in order...

Right but some of us are pointing out the inconsistency of attributing the cook’s presence to the roll, and then say that a wandering...

How do the locations of both the NPCs and the PCs remain the same when and encounter is both indicated and not indicated. They’re both...

So the wandering monster roll determines the PCs’ location not the monsters? That seems weird. I would think if the roll indicates a...

I don’t know. I’ve accurately described both. There are those of us who don’t require that every game we play work a specific way...

This seems flawed to me. The GM acts as the PCs' senses and needs to accurately convey information they would have. In the modern era...

I'm getting a bit fed up with the implication that I'm lying about a game that I know pretty well. But I've quoted some of the text just...

Your wandering monsters magically teleport to whatever location the party happens to be at the arbitrarily determined time span. The...

Just like there might be a cook in the room?
