Yeah, as it develops, I'll be sure to post more about it.<br />: )<br /><br />My college girlfriend was from West Seattle (grew up down the block from the bowling alley there on 39th). I spent a lot of time over there in my 20s.

White Center is technically an "unincorporated urban area" so they do weird things like use plastic bags still and have fast food restaurants.<br /><br />I've said it before and I'll say it again: your campaign setting sounds awesome, and Washington is very well suited to D&D!Jason Blackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12094182994091699575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4143435314932633148.post-56789729937683448202021-11-09T12:01:21.584-08:002021-11-09T12:01:21.584-08:00It's tough, right?

But I'd take "well-executed, non-boring" over originality most days of the week. <br /><br />Maybe something with whimsy? The three-headed mouse-king of The Nutcracker? Some sort of rat-vs-cat conflict? An enchanted rat fairy tale adventure (the Princess Rat!)? <br /><br />Jeez, I'd think Scotland would have SOME sort of ratty folk tale to rip off...<br />; )JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03263662621289630246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4143435314932633148.post-64401560811746571012021-11-09T11:56:19.731-08:002021-11-09T11:56:19.731-08:00The idea has definite possibilities...

Rats have featured prominently and there's been lots of heated discussions about whether we're particularly bad for them. As it turns out we are not, but that doesn't make the politics of the situation any less heated.<br /><br />Against this I'm formulating ideas about entering your competition but right now I'm struggling to come up with a big plan that's different enough. A handful of individual rat-themed encounters but no grander idea.Jacob72https://www.blogger.com/profile/17268402292420473229noreply@blogger.com
