System-Adventurous Design

The scenarios contained herein are designed within a set of principles we call System-Adventurous. While they do not expect or demand any particular game or game system to play them, they will be more satisfying to play with games that align with their overall conceit. The farther the game diverges from the spirit of the scenario, the more work you will need to do at your table to make rules decisions or judgment calls on the fly.

To aid making these matches, and to give plenty of hooks and narrative pieces to use during play, each Scenario specifies a set of Approaches to theme, genre and/or style of play, and plenty of business for the characters, locations and events that make up the scenario.
