Some of you may remember me saying last week that I was about to run my first game of Dungeon World.

Some of you may remember me saying last week that I was about to run my first game of Dungeon World. Well, the bad news is, that fell through, and last minute ditches kept me from getting anyone together.

The good news is, my first game should be in about three hours.

  1. Hey congrats!   I hope y’all have a blast and I would love to hear about how it went.  I just put up an Actual Play from last night, my 2nd session.  

  2. No, like the one that’s mentioned on p. 388, at the end of the appendix on adventure conversion. Moves used to introduce the game in action.

  3. Everyone got here around quarter of two, and we spent about 30-45 minutes working on character sheets. Of the three players, none have ever played Dungeon World, and only one has ever played a tabletop RPG. The one with D&D, who is playing a halfling thief, helped me out explaining some of the more genre stuff to the two new players, who are a barbarian, and an elf ranger. We took a break, and are now starting with introductions and questions.

  4. The halfling thief, Tetikus Kecil, and her elven companions, Dambrath, and Elijas the Glorious arrive in Cormire.

    Settling in a booth at the Bold Hawk Inn, Tetikus buys her friends a round of drinks with her ill-gotten gains. Tetikus asked the barmaid, Thelissa, about a Tannidl Vineseeker, an exotic fruit dealer attached to some treasure that she keeps secret.

    Thelissa got nervous, and lets out that that’s not a name that strangers would be expected to ask for. She explained that he’s a recluse, in the north end of town, before quickly excusing herself to tend to the other tables.

    Elijas suggested heading north, to find Tannidl’s home, when Dambrath notices a man in all black, with a green collar, and a black animal, with a gem at its collar, at his feet. Tetikus recognized the clothes as that of a merchant of a land not far from her own. Tannidl! Dambrath also managed to catch a glimpse of Thelissa, in the back room, getting yelled at by a superior.

    At Dambrath’s suggestion, the trio finished their drinks and waited outside in hiding, to track Tannidl to his home. However, when he finally left the Bold Hawk, the plan fell through; Tetikus noticed that the black creature was a panther, and decided to ask if she could ride the large cat. He agreed, but asked a favor, first: travel east of the river to deliver a message. To help their travel, Tannidl allowed Tetikus and Elijas horses to ride. Dambrath would ride on his bear companion, Yogi.

    At this, we drew the session to an end.

    Tetikus’s player was the one with D&D experience. The other two, particularly Elijas’s player, were more shy with taking much initiative. This was kind of expected, so it wasn’t a big deal this time.

    Karlen Kendrick​​ you clearly do not know Dambrath’s player! He has some RPG background through video games, and he likes to play to win.
