Hi folks,
I have an open question to all the regular and veteren players here, concerning how to roleplay your character based on the premise of the dream with the dragon and the story of the Blood.
Is the dream something that should be taken quite literally by the character? Is this something he would discuss with his friends, and if he did, he would soon discover that everyone (at least PCs) are having these dreams and awakening in the town. I wanted to know how literally to take this dream - or should it just be seen as a way to start the game?
I'm not trying to be anal on purpose
I am just curious how other players have handled this. For me, my character feels like an outsider and he has "woken" up from the dream in this strange town and land - but what I want to try and do is build a local background for him rather than him playing the "stranger in a new lands" type of scenario.
It's obviously a prophetic experience meeting the dragon in the "dream", but my character would soon become seriously alarmed once he discovers it's not just him having these visions.
I guess this adds to the overall urgency of the arch-plot and that's the point?
So hit me with your thoughts - how have you all handled the intense introduction sequence to the plot?
