Table

A list of prompts.

Definition

Tables are lists of prompts that players will pick from when instructed.

  • Each table will have a specific theme or grouping of prompts.

  • Prompts are usually an establishing line followed by one or two questions.

    • E.g. "An event has transpired. Question about the event? Follow up question?"

Intention

Tables are another way to give players a structured choice about where to take their story. When a player chooses a prompt from a Table, it usually establishes something true that has happened in their story—an event, effect, etc. They will then have a chance to further elaborate through a number of questions.
