Author Craft / Using writing tricks for RPGs, and vice versa
« on: August 07, 2011, 01:07:06 AM »
Has anyone used fiction writing techniques to improve how they play their roleplaying games, and vice versa?  Me, I used to read a lot of fiction writing books back when I had aspirations of trying out fiction.  These days, I prefer to get my creative jollies out in RPGs, but the stuff I learned in those books - strong characters driving the plot, especially - has really improved my game, both on the player and the GM side.  Has anyone had this kind of experience before?

DFRPG / JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stands and Hamon
« on: July 15, 2011, 04:38:13 PM »
So I'm a big fan of this manga called JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.  In the first two installments, humans use a martial art called Hamon to destroy vampires with life energy.  From the third installment onward, the focus shifts to Stands, spectral manifestations of a person's spirit that can attack enemies and use strange powers.  In future DFRPG games I'd like to play as either one of these types of characters - I think Hamon in particular would work great with the setting.  How might I go about doing that?
