Has anyone ever tried to make a reluctant adventurer class ala Bilbo baggins from the hobbit? Or other fairy tails like stardust. Sort of a take on the modern mixing with the fantastic. Not sure it would be fun to play or not, but think that DW would be the game to do it.

Just got the PDF and waiting on the book. What does it mean for your call? For example the bard move -a port in the storm. Lets say we just started our first game with brand new characters. We get to the first civilization that the players have ever been to as a group, the Village of the Burnished Spell Throne Spire. The village is a small hamlet built upon the ruins surrounding the Spire. (The GM having just made it up on the spot) I am assuming that the bard character can say “ah the burnished spire. I haven’t been here since I first held a sword on that fabled day my brother Ateon was killed by the mad space wizard MU. It looks so different to me now…I can see the spire, but what happened to Slattern Slyph Inn?” Call for the port in a storm move,

I can see two courses as GM – what you do you mean that is for when you have been somewhere before? This the first time you have been here you dunce. I”m the GM here.

Or (the way I interpret the rule) – ah yes, the Slattern Slyph. Well it definitely has been burned to the ground, but the heat could have only been magical as the foundations are now a slag of black glass. Next to it you see a small cavern wagon. A impish looking halfling woman smoking a long pipe and tending an impromptu bar made from a board across two kegs, sees you eyeing it. She looks like the previous owner of the inn, but younger, maybe a relative. She is giving you a hard stare, and motions you over with her pipe what do you do?

My narrative kibitzing self would go for the later, but wanted to make sure I understand the intent of the RAW.

Thanks and peace -Steve

Anyone play this face to face in Houston Texas. Looking to get into a game sometime, real,y want to try this out. I am a late 30’s family man with a love of OD&D plus also story games like ditv and Polaris. Thanks
