OK, I wanted to share and get input on something that's been running through my head. I want to expand on the player sharing in world building. Basically, there would be some type of token assigned (not sure on the quantity) that you would spend to define a part of the world. Example: "The Northwall Orcs are marching against us? **spend token** But between us lies the Deadreach Marshes. They must either take a week to go around, or march ~through~ them, and they are infested with dragons."
Still working on how those tokens would be regenerated/awarded. Maybe putting the characters in to positions that challenge them or drive the story in interesting directions. Obviously that would be kind of subjective. But something like I offer a token with a statement like "The army is lead by Tam Tolth, who has issue a challenge to single combat. If he is defeated, their army will withdraw." Something that puts the characters a chance to risk it all for a cause, and maybe earn a Hero point.
A second thing I've been toying with is the idea of allowing Hero points to be spent to advance weapons/items. Basically, things that could be considered of an heirloom nature. They could spend a Hero point to unlock, say, extra damage against certain creatures, or make a shield un-sunderable.
Has anyone done something similar to either of these concepts? Curious to see how they could be tweaked to work within the system.
