So I've decided that I want to help pick up the slack and create smaller "Drop in" plots that advance characters backgrounds, etc.However, I have never successfully done any storytelling at all before. So. How does one go about learning these skills, etc? How do you involve characters. How do you recover when the players go off 145 degrees from anything you had planned for?</blockquote>
