[QUOTE="Shimrath, post: 6034175, member: 58196"] Hello there, I wanted to thank all of those currently posting about their Zeitgeist campaigns, and ask for some input. Several of the threads pointed toward a Session Zero where the players answer questions about their characters. I was able to find the original list of questions that inspired all of this, and listed them below, but was curious to hear what other questions DMs might have included specifically for a ZG campaign. ORIGINAL QUESTIONS: How long has the group been together? Who in the group do you trust the most? Who in the group do you trust the least? What is the scariest situation you've ever been in? Describe the situation when you had to save "INSERT OTHER CHARACTER HERE". What secret do you keep that no other player knows? Who is the leader of the group? TO LEADER OF GROUP: Why do you *not* want to lead the group? What's the one thing you're really good at that has nothing to do with your adventuring career? What are you most ashamed of? Do you lean toward any particular faith? Why is "INSERT OTHER PLAYER HERE" in need of redemption? What is your main goal? What was the last encounter your group was involved in and how did it change your outlook on the group? I was planning on adding the following: With which of the major faiths/philosophies do you most strongly identify? (Which, now that i've listed the originals, isn't really an addition!) Were you born in Risur, or did you come from elsewhere? And these were suggested by other users: How did you get in to the Royal Homeland Constabulary? (Credit to Siberys.) What did you do during the last Yerasol War? (Siberys) Describe a contact in Flint? (Siberys) As a constable in the RHC, you are granted great leeway in the manner in which you perform your duties. What boundaries do impose on yourself? Does the end always justify the means, or are your actions tempered by some greater sense of morality? (d20KC) What are your attitudes toward technology? (d20KC) What are your attitudes toward magic? (d20KC) All ideas welcome! I will add them to the list as they arrive. -Shimrath. [/QUOTE]
