For those who stumbled onto this blog, let me explain the story and genesis of this blog.
It is a collaborative project borne from the piqued interest of my high school friend after I showed him a blog which happens to be like a RPG campaign developer's diary. That item was set the wheels in motion for me to create a similiar endeavor and for this one since my friend wants to take a shot at this.
As to the left turn, it was actually a reference from the metaphor discussed in a gaming article I read from rpg.net. The left turn that was discussed refers to a radical element or diversion to a pre-existing campaign structure or flow to keep the interest in the campaign going. It can either be inspired genius or just downright coincidental.
I recall a radical left turn in my campaign which was set in a post-apocalyptic radiation filled wasteland and that left turn catapulted the campaign into creative overdrive into a science fantastic space opera setting. It was one of the left turns I have looked back upon from time to time. There were other left turns I encountered as a GM and a player.
My gaming career has its share of left turns in the roles of GM and player. Some of these left turns can be so moving in terms of the result of the experience itself or the result created from it.
I intend to go through another set of left turns as I endeavor to the campaign I'm going to helm after being away from the GM and player's chair.
The status of that particular campaign would discussed in another upcoming blog, coming to a browser near you soon. ;)
