Vague Overview

• Mirdis has been left behind in the rain by the rest of the party because he chose to go invisible instead of wait and see who the approaching entity was on the sleigh.
• I have the vague idea of wanting Stanley to meet up with a crazed hunter (Mirphy) and go on a hunting expedition to obtain a part of his dream cloak.
  • I'm thinking this could be a way to VERY FAR IN ADVANCE tease some of his familial or friendly ties to the other continents. This person he meets could actually be a person he knew in real life, that he's now repurposed as a sort of way to cope with the fear of now being alone in the rain with no direction.
• I need this to work in some way so that it doesn't take up too much time and mean that he's completely out of play for this next session. Or at the very least, give him a role to play for this next session if he's going to be gone the whole time. (Likely the latter because I want this solo session to have real substance).
• I need to make an engaging hunting system from scratch so that he can locate his prey this time around and then use it again later on if the moment calls for it.
  • Take inspiration from the work you did on Owen's fishing system. It shouldn't be a reskin, but it should compliment it in a similar way I guess???
• Somehow be able to wrap it all back around into Stanley being able to find the party again and reconvene for their next adventure.

Hunting System Ideas

• I want a tracking mechanic
  • Incorporate Survival/Nature skill
  • Maybe something like Phasmaphobia in the future with how they decide what ghost is haunting a location
• I want a stealth mechanic
  • Incorporate Stealth Skill

Rough Outline

• Mirdis is left behind as the sleigh passes by them
  • Let him choose what he does in response
• Somehow introduce him to Mirphy, an erratic and disheveled hunter (Appalachian type)
  • Mirphy tells him of a "white beast" that roams these woods, and that he's been hunting it for months (It's a white dragon wyrmling).
  • Introduce him to the concept through the air growing colder and the rain slowing into a gentle snowfall for a brief moment as the dragon passes by.
  • Dragon flying and roaring SFX
