[QUOTE="Emirikol, post: 6467498, member: 10638"] When I ran WFRP games on RPTOOLS, I would frequently set up some pre-gen macros with monologue, "read aloud text", etc. A solution to pre-genning macros is to simply have them in text form on a nearby STICKIES ([URL="http://www.zhornsoftware.co.uk/stickies/"]the good version that you can "set to always be on top",[/URL] not the crap that comes with your computer). For example from Colonial Gothic's "The Lost Colony": I simply clip and paste some things that I need preformatted: [B]Socialize skill check succeeds![/B] [I]Sons of Liberty Not as quiet as they could be now that the rumbles of war have made it as far as Maine, the Sons of Liberty starting to make themselves known more openly up and down the coast—especially in rural areas where they will garner more sympathy. At this point, it is not unusual for an out-of-town member of the Sons of Liberty[/I] [B]Investigate skill check succeeds![/B] [I]There is a thief in town “Victoria’s missing her earrings and Julie her bracelet. ey found Elizabeth’s necklace in Temperance’s room but Temperance is missing the pearl necklace her grandmother gave her. And don’t get me started on the missing candlesticks. e Tatems, Arringtons, Dowlings, and Lees are missing candlesticks but not the candles! ere is a thief in town, and an impish prankster to boot! I’ve heard that some of the missing things can be found in other people’s barns. It’s an evil mischief I tell you.”[/I] [/QUOTE]
