The Worldbuilder's Journal of Legendary Adventures (Dungeons & Dragons): 365 Questions to Help You Create Mythical Characters, Storied Worlds, and Unique Campaigns

This book is literally a Journal, but I love it! I purchased it to come up with those random missions and encounters in my realm when I'm very stumped and for that purpose it's serving me very well. It doesnt lay out to much for you (which I'm creative so I prefer that) Instead it gives you a writing prompt/question which helps spark any with writers block into an idea for a small mission or story or even major arch. Example: Actually in book : "Think about a child that has been affected by the actions of you or your party, how did crossing paths with you change this child's life? perhaps you actually burned down their village or saved the child from a Monster's attack. What is this child like as a result. My own written inspiration: "A child is missing - During his usual test flight Glimburn Gizcheck lost his son Flimble somewhere North of Emeralstone City. It was the boys first test flight without a co-pilot, everything seemed to be going okay but then Flimble never returned home, His dad Glimburn noticed he'd forgotten his teleport crystal. The father is offering a large sum of gold to bring him home. (Evil players could try to steal his stone and learn a messy secret. Good players could return him for the bounty.)" The small prompt gave me an entire arch idea around my town and how these stones will play a role for characters. Secondly It gave me a child who can either go missing and be found by the party thus creating an Ally and maybe spy for them at a later date or an enemy when upon returning he finds his stone missing or destroyed or even his father dead yikes. If you are not a creative person I would suggest a more in depth journal, or if you're looking for a journal with a stats or npc section this isn't for you as it is literally a journal and only has a small prompt for each page and a blank section to write in. for me It's perfect for my need and I like having a hard copy inspirational book versus internet searching ideas when stumped for what could happen in this tavern differently from the other 10 they've already visited type of thing.

Molto bello. Ben fatto

A very thick journal with decent quality paper. I reccomend pen or paper as felt top marker pens blend through when I tested them. Each page features a prompt and lines below to fill in ideas and an area to date your entry. Some prompts refer to specific events or places within DND lore while others are more open ended. For people who tend to homebrew campaigns and characters these can be a little limiting creatively. Some prompts focus on character building while others focus on overall world building. One prompt is about how your playable character would look and act if they were transformed into a goat. Depending on how large you write or how detailed you'd like to be there is room to write shorter ideas for multiple characters. I recently began a campaign with some newbie players and used some prompts as ice breakers to help with character creation.

It's smaller than I thought it was, between A6 and A5. Not hardcover as I thought it was but I might have came up with that assumption myself.

So. It's just literally notebook for 350 pages. Over the page stay some tips, like in video game. All pages are lined. Gorgeous art in frontpage, but, it's just a notebook. No empty pages, no doted pages. I'm quite disappointed
