🙄 The Prentice [ EDIT ]

This game has been retired! That means it's no longer being run.

Their signs were everywhere. Earn GpGpGp!!! No XP necessary!!!! Be your own questgiver!!!! What the signs lacked in information, they made up for in exclamation.

The Waterdhavian Bogg franchise (Slop Street) of Acquisitions Incorporated are hiring!!!

Although their lawyermancers made it quite clear that their offer wasn't technically employment (which would mean healing potion benefits, support from humanoid resources, and pay), and the ideal candidate should be happy to be paid in exposure and AMAZING!!! portfolio opportunities.

Character Generation Info

This is a lighthearted and silly game played for laughs. You'll be trainees, interns, apprentices, temps so far down the corporate ladder that you'd need a ladder to grab the first rung. Powergamers and heroes need not apply.

The vignette will be adapted from the start of the AI sourcebook. It's a vignette - a short game - there will be no opportunity for promotion or career progression. However, there will be opportunities for rapid hinsizing, and post-corporeal challenges, a.k.a. vis-à-vis TPK.

Try and lean into corporate and workplace tropes:
The overly enthusiastic trainee.
The sulky teenager whose mom forced them to get a job.
The ambitious go-getter who's all about thinking outside the box and actioning win-win scenarios whilst leveraging their, y'know, lack of talent.
