Betrayal at Krondor
I have read books where the authors have actually “played” the character behind the scenes, taking dice rolls to decide critical events and rolling with them, no matter how catastrophic.<p>It definitely lends the work this “internal coherency” that is mentioned in the article. Feels much more <i>real</i>.<p>And being in a solid tabletop group has been great for my life. Not only do you maintain friendships, but you take part in a shared story. It’s great, and I’d definitely recommend it to HNers who have never tried it before. If someone ever asks you, don’t turn it down - it’ll be worth it.
