A Quiet Land
The queen entrusted you with a small fortress overseeing the village of Barriston along the borders of her land, charging you to "keep the peace" here, as bandits and stranger things have been seen in the woods...  This is a small project I've been working on bit by bit for a few months, and I finally collected all my notes and summarized them as best I could onto a single page. I love domain play, and get excited thinking about all the various implementations players might come up with, but books often turn them into very granular simulationist things that have more in common with Excel documents than works of epic fantasy. This is a very simple answer to that question, but I hope you find it fun and useful! -Hilander P.S. Here's the original Google Doc if you want to edit your own copy: A Quiet Land
