10 Homebrewed Noble Houses of Kirkwall (sourced from Ptolus RPG)

Image
 Adapted from Ptolus: City By the Spire. Note that a lot of the names in Ptolus are middle eastern in nature, so I changed some to more fit the culture of Kirkwall. Other names I kept just because I liked them. ALBRECHT – A mercantile family that firmly believes wealth is power. They are not well regarded and serve as examples of the saying that wealth breeds contempt." Dered Albrecht is the very old head of house that many are simply waiting to die, though he has yet to name a heir. (I have decided he is bitter about his failing body and funded Quintin 's research in the hopes of restoring life to his old limps.) As the PCs rise to wealthy status (after Bartrand's Expedition), Dered may at first try to incorporate them into his Household. He would also offer investment opportunities to expand both the PC’s wealth and his. He would certainly take an interest in how their wealth. He would definitely back the Delver’s Guild (which does not yet exist), and might even be the o...

Dragon Age 2 TTRPG Campaign - House Rules!

Image
Time to get into some logistics of the campaign! I am using the Dragon AGE RPG ruleset as developed by Green Ronin. I am also using Ptolus: City by the Spire as a source book for expanding Kirkwall and going deeper into its various districts, factions, and secrets. See my previous post for more info about what that looks like. House Rules - Welcome to FrankenAGE I made several modifications to the rules in the Dragon AGE RPG. Here's a link to the doc with all the specifics , but you can get the breakdown below: Nat 1's and Nat 20's exist (triples 1's & triple 6's, respectively). Rolling triples gains players a bonus die of the same value. (Rolling triple 4's gets you another +4). The bonus die on triples can be used on extra stunt points or banked in a party stunt pool, if you passed your roll. Rewrote the Backstab rules for Rogues to work for range. Followed leveling in the Fantasy AGE rulebook (class abilities are near identical, just shifted around so ...

DA2 TTRPG Campaign Diary - Session 2 - Enter the City of Chains

Image
  The goal for session 2 was to bring the PCs together to form a party (we didn't quite hit that yet). I had discussed with Fisher's player beforehand since he was the one already living in Kirkwall, and it was he who suggested needing a crew for his boat. The Road to Kirkwall We open with Deorum and his elven companion and bodyguard Lulia walking the road from Minrathous to Kirkwall after the assassination of Deorum’s parents. It is a long and somewhat miserable trek, especially when it comes to sleeping outdoors, as the two don't have a tent. They are also both ignoring the pain of the trauma they have just experienced. Fenlin is making the same trek, but sticking to the forest to stay out of sight. She does however make point of keeping the road in view as she does not know the area, and she needs the road to make sure she is going in the right direction. A farmer driving a cart of cabbages stops along the road and offers Deorum and Lulia a ride. They accept. Fenlin noti...
