RPGaDay 2025 30: Experience
There are multiple ways to understand an experience from the past. Historical events are transmitted in one way or another. Sometimes it’s reconstructing events from relics by considering their location and distribution. Sometimes it’s decoding how people wrote about the things happening around them. So, for today, here’s a d8 table of various ways of understanding an experience from the past.
I hope it’ll inspire some ways of having the old protrude into your adventures.
| d8 | Means of experiencing past |
|---|---|
| 1 | Received a vision of events past |
| 2 | Read in a historical record |
| 3 | Decoded from a bas relief |
| 4 | Interpreted from a series of paintings |
| 5 | Clued together from a historical play |
| 6 | Distilled truth from epic poems |
| 7 | Contrasted popular folk songs |
| 8 | Investigated the oral history |
Look forward to more RPGaDAY posts throughout the month!
