Narrative Design
Dave's Knicknacks
Practice in creating a one page character's profile and quirks
Dave’s Knicknacks is a project to write background information, character notes, and descriptions of items that can be found in the shop.
It is inspired by a picture that I have chosen to revisit because of an accompanying blurb. From there, came the idea of who Noel is, and that led to the various items that can be found in her shop.
Ringleader
Inspired by Hunt: Showdown
Ringleader is a boss inspired by Hunt: Showdown. The document contains lore and a few notes on the gameplay for the Ringleader.
The idea of a circus-themed boss stemmed from a design perspective and childhood stories that feature the art of knife throwing. It was a challenge to present the lore like the game does while doing my best to keep everything accurate to the setting.
Meandering
A Twine project of a town
Meandering first started as a method to learn Twine. Yet, it quickly grew once I settled on the idea of exploration.
Setting the adventure in a town allowed me to exercise my skills in character creation, dialogue, event planning, and worldbuilding. Furthermore, the scale is malleable, allowing me to work on it occasionally without worry.
Xmas Heist
DnD 5e adventure
Xmas Heist is a Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) 5E adventure. The seed came from a desire to have players solve a mental puzzle using the mechanics of their class.
I created a series of encounters that led the players to the puzzle and the final room. The puzzle encounter did not survive the edits but removing it had only made the adventure more cohesive.
