The Finicky Traveler

 

This is an auto-based reworking of a Victorian parlor game.  The driver secretly picks a letter.  As the group passes towns, streets, or local features, the passengers ask if the finicky traveler can visit them.  The traveler cannot visit locations that have the letter in their name.  Passengers work to figure out the mystery letter guiding the traveler.

Discuss safety, genre, and tone, and then describe your character.  

Roll 1d6 when the story is in doubt.  Things go well on a roll of four or higher, otherwise there is a complication, twist, or failure.   Add one to the roll if skills, background, or circumstances favor the character; subtract one from the roll if the situation is particularly dire.  

Give your character a more developed story and deeper connections to the world as they advance.
