Message: <blockquote data-quote="Imaculata" data-source="post: 7041281" data-attributes="member: 6801286">For my campaign, I have two important folders that are always within reach: -One contains all the campaign info, along with maps for dungeons and regions, and is for my eyes only. -The other contains all the custom weapons in my campaign, and is always available to everyone.My campaign folder contains the following:-Word documents for all the important  islands/countries in my campaign, with a quick breakdown of all the  notable locations and npc's and small chapters on each quest that I  have planned in those locations. I tend to write out a lot of character descriptions and  motivations, and sometimes I even prepare some important dialogues  before I run the session.-A timeline of important historical  events in my setting, because I want to get all the dates right. If a  player asks me what happened x years ago, I always have the answer.[ATTACH]81655[/ATTACH]-Abbreviated lists of monsters that I plan to use, so I don't have to look them up in the MM. (Plus I use a lot of  custom monsters). -random encounter tables for each type of environment, and random  loot tables.-A weather tracker. I know exactly from what direction the wind is coming, how strong the wind speed is, and what the weather is like.-A faction tracker. I keep track of the attitude of all the important factions in my campaign towards the players, and their ships. Which groups are loyal to them, and which are hostile.When I prepare for a next session, I make sure I have updated random encounter tables ready, and I copy any monsters that I might need to a document, and print it out. I also look for some concept art for important locations, monsters and characters. If I expect the players to encounter a dungeon, I prepare a map for it, I prepare the monsters, a loot table, and notes for locations in that dungeon. I may even prepare some dungeon tiles of the dungeon.</blockquote>
