Wilderness Fantasy in Chaos Solo Engine
Fantasy wilderness is the lands beyond "civilisation". Those who venture there are explorers and nomads, hunters and hermits. Scorching deserts, forbidding mountains, endless grasslands, tangled rainforests, dank swamps, ancient woods and frozen tundra all hold secrets of beasts, flora, fungi and ruins.
Chaos Solo Engine aims to act as a companion to the player(s) when playing solo. Answering questions, helping with ideas, structuring scenes, and guiding ongoing play.
The upcoming Chaos Solo Engine -Complete has an array of tables for various fantasy themes, including settings of City, Dungeon, Hinterlands, Otherworld, Sea and Wilderness.
There is also a pay-what-you-want pdf of core tables in on Drive Thru RPG as Chaos Solo Engine - Fantasy Basic.
