About the Game

 

This is a journal of a limited materials solo campaign. I am only allowed the following five main works/categories, but have adopted some reference material to facilitate solo gaming and establish the game.

 

Setting Book:

• Oz, by Andrew Kolb
• Reference:
• Oz Social Chart
• Oz World Maps
• The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, by Eric Shanower and Skottie Young

 

Game System:

• Old-School Essentials Advanced, by Necrotic Gnome
• Reference:
• Publisher Website (https://oldschoolessentials.necroticgnome.com/generators/)
• Mythic GM Emulator 2e fate & inspiration tables (inline), by Tana Pigeon, to facilitate solo gaming.

 

Splat Book:

• Tome of Adventure Design Revised, by Matt Finch

 

Dungeon:

• The Stygian Library, by Emmy Allen
• An ephemeral, eternal, library full of all knowledge one might wish to seek.
• Needs exposition to the party before it can be found.
• Entrance is located in a random location (rolled per day) within the Great Library Ruins.

 

Adventure:

• The Gardens of Ynn, by Emmy Allen
• An ephemera, eternal, lush wilderness which was once ruled by fae. The gardens could contain any sort of special flora for alchemy, sorceries, or medicine.
• Needs exposition to the party before it can be opened. Exposition also reveals how to leave ("The Realm of Oz, by Way of Ynn") if the doorway-portal closes, but there is only a X-in-30 chance that there is a suitable/workable surface where X is the current depth (and can only be tried once per "room").
