A Journey's Rest

This week, Jackson and I discuss the pros and cons of creating lengthy, novel-esque backstories vs generic backstories that allow for more discovery of the character through gameplay. Which is better? Which is worse? Are we qualified to answer that question? Eh, maybe? Join us as we use examples from our current campaigns as well as previously made characters to explain the burden of responsibility for back story and the creation of metaphorical twistable knives. The 3rd best kind of knife!

What is A Journey's Rest?

This is a podcast focused on the vast but deep set of topics about the complexity and joy of Roleplay games. Whether you need to Attune to a magic item, regain some hit points, Change out spells, or just Reminisce with friends, here we just sit down for around about an hour and enjoy ourselves.
