Description
Author's introduction:
Have you heard of Dungeons and Dragons, Runequest, Tunnels and Trolls or Worlds of Wonder? These are fantasy role-playing games.
...
To play any of these games you must create one or more characters, then guide your character(s) through adventures in a universe created by a game master. To create a character, you will need to roll three six-sided dice several times. We will use Runequest as an example.

Quotes (from this video)
- And hey, sometimes you need a deck of cards and uh that is something that I have told myself quite often and over the years I have amassed quite a collection of different decks of oracle cards and cards used to generate things to generate quests and encounters.
- So, let's get into my top 10 decks of fantasy oracle and generator cards.
- And I think that the deck of notices and quests is a really good one.
- I just love this for spice. I just love this to add some some weirdness to a game.
- And with just those two decks, you could have a really interesting little RPG.

Quotes (from this video)
- Hey everyone, I'm Jessica and today I want to talk about solo RPG oracles.
- the oracle and this tool is going to create those situations that move your story forward
- the most interesting part about an oracle is that this is something that you are going to interpret
- it's the solo RPG, it's just you. And interpreting what you see is sort of the appeal
- I like solo RPGs so much.
- What I love about solo RPGs is the interpretation and creating a story that you didn't necessarily think was going to come out of this.
- This is for you to have fun with.
- these gigantic cards called Story World
- the art style is really really pretty and really detailed

Quotes (from this video)
- These are not exciting. These are not the awesome, the fun times. These could be the boring questions.
- There's no wrong answer here.
- You can toss it if that doesn't work.
- You get to be what you want to be and explore all these different adventures and tell these stories and it's all yours.
- Not feeling overwhelmed like there's all these choices I have to make. I've made them. Here I go and I'm gonna play.
- And the other part of this, which again I'm going a little bit further here, but the other thing that makes solo RPG so fun for me especially is that interpretation of what the Oracle gives you.
