Our 3rd session went really well, I thought. I started out with something I was a little unsure about but seemed important to the story. They’re a weird cult and are friends with The Forgotten Gods. It’s a jumble anyways so I thought they’re kind of a fledgling cult on the side of the Forgotten Gods. I wanted the Forgotten Gods to be consolidating and unifying, thought they would have a meeting about getting organized and that the PCs were welcome. I was nervous because I didn’t have any idea where drama might be for the players. All I had was one npc vice purveyor who was in the cult of the dead sun with an undefined relationship to one PC and an idea that conflict in the Forgotten Gods was between someone saying “unite under me” people and others saying “no”. It might not have worked if I hadn’t taken a page from the game on YouTube with Oskar Scurlock and Arcy and the other PC. The bit early early on with a cop shouldering the other character, I did something similar with “the butcher”. Lots of questions later, PC connections and motivations determined, lots of player created NPCs and NPC groups and then a player decided this was the score. They were there to murder the butcher and sway the results of the meeting. They succeeded but didn’t have time to make it look accidental. We’ll see where things go from here. I’m thinking that the Forgotten Gods may break into two groups. It was great.

Excellent.
If it wasn’t accidental, could they have passed it off as a cult ritual sacrifice?
