DM Notes | RIPTIDE #75-#81 (Patreon)

Big G here. THE DM.

Here are my notes for episodes 75 through 81! Please leave any questions or thoughts in the comments, and if there's anything you're interested in seeing, let me know!

WE ARE FINALLY DONE WITH THE FEYWILD ARC! A ROUND OF APPLAUSE IN THE BACK PLEAAASEE!! I went a bit insane trying to do the module, and then erratically crafting this whole plot that used the elements I already established from the module, but still became something unique that fit more of the vibe, the world, and story we've been telling for Riptide.

I know I said I'd start uploading session notes every episode, but ultimately decided that uploading at the end of every arc was more efficient, and would let you see things I planned ahead, without spoiling them.

You can see I also changed up my note crafting style like I said I would! Honestly, it's been a really nice change. I just sorta thought dump onto the page, and make sure I type out every beat I want to hit in that episode, even if it carries over to the next. I also try to think of how I want to end each session now. The Escape Room was the only thing these last few episodes that took a lot of brain power to write out the mechanics for, I'm not so good with mechanics usually.

Anyways, see you soon with the next batch of notes from the upcoming arc: "Back to Zero."

Of course, as always, you'll notice I've blacked out some things that I believe are false info, spoilers, or irrelevant ideas.
If you DO see any spoilers in these... no you didn't!

Much love, appreciate you all so much!
