This video is made for people who have a basic understanding of Mythic Game Master Emulator 2nd Edition, but are having a hard time understanding how to wrap up a scene, start a new one, or who simply want a better idea on how to make the most out of the rules. If you are new to Mythic, you may want to check out my introduction to Mythic: https://youtu.be/ZQDtBM4bz5w. If you are watching this video I assume you already have a basic familiarity with the rules. Mythic is one of those systems which look complicated to get into but that become very lightweight and hassle-free once you wrap your head around it. To help people get started, I made two previous videos available in this playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLz1noTK4xRhQD5ZyDUNUD66gm6a4MjrTU. In this video, I am tackling one of the most requested aspects of Mythic. Starting and Ending scenes. More specifically, how many scenes do you need to cover any kind of event in your game? AND when is the best time to end a scene and start a new one. By the end of this video you should be much better equipped to make the most out of this KEY concept for solo roleplaying. Once you understand how to use Mythic scenes to your advantage, you will unlock the ability to focus your story, to have better control on building plotlines and getting satisfying payoffs, and you will learn how to let mythic act as a mechanism to give you inspiration.

In this video I explain Zach Best's CRGE (Conjectural roleplaying gamemaster emulator) in less than 15min. This is a great game system as well as a wonderful tool to find writing inspiration.

In this video I explain the basics of Mythic: Game Master Emulator 2nd Edition in 20 minutes. It's my new favorite way to play table top RPGs without a gamemaster and find inspiration when I am writing a story. I will probably also try it with others players because it's very useful when you need to improvise a story.

In this video I tell you about what sets Scarlet Heroes apart from other TTRPGs. If you're either a D&D player in search of a more elegant and simple system (like I was) or a solo adventurer trying to keep things manageable (also like me), Scarlet Heroes is a great game to check out. Here, I focus on the system's character creation and combat so you will have a good idea if this is the roleplay for you.
