Session 29 - The Charity Ball
One of the few chill sessions we've had in Hearts Aglow in a while, as things wrapped up, people talked about their feelings and such. The situation seems to be calming down but drama still lurks around the corner.
For the ball, I took a lot from MTB's The Charitable Vicomtesse. It was a funny success, as I couldn't really enmesh the players deeper into the mystery without pressing my hand overmuch, but the players enjoyed the characters and we spent about 2 hours on the ball, which the adventure refers to as just a little starter into the bigger mystery.
The good thing is that these are all now part of the dramatis personae, and now the characters know quite a few of them, hence even though they didn't see that part of the module, it worked. And the characters are interesting too, what can I say.
Next session I'll do something very experimental, at least for me, unrelated to Roslov, so I'm wondering how it'll work out.
