Message: <blockquote data-quote="Cruentus" data-source="post: 9559560" data-attributes="member: 7034645">I’m currently running a sandbox in Greyhawk, in Sterich to be specific, using the Gold box (just a lot of framework, light on detail), and placing it at the end of From the Ashes.  From there, it’s all homebrew on the starting village/area in Sterich, what’s immediately around it, and I’m pulling from all kinds of 3PP, homebrew, and old TSR materials to offer plot hooks or interesting areas to explore.  I’ve already had players ignore all the plot hook offerings and decide to try to set up a caravan/merchant career.  <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="🤷‍♂️" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f937-2642.png" title="Man shrugging    :man_shrugging:" data-shortname=":man_shrugging:" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" />   Usually I switched settings for each campaign, but this time I’m using the same setting, and every time folks play, they add to the fabric of the area, the lore and myths about goings on, and they sometimes precipitate events that will play out over time.  I’m also keeping it fairly ‘local’ and ‘focused’ rather than ‘here is the world map, where do you want to go next’.  Though they can decide to leave Sterich, it is a sandbox, after all.</blockquote>
