Narrator

The player that facilitates the story, controls the actions for antagonists and deuteragonists, and interprets results from draws.

Each story needs a player to serve as Narrator. Instead of guiding a protagonist like the Leads, the Narrator is the main storyteller—the judge and the jury.

  • The Narrator knows the story and how it is supposed to end.
  • The Narrator controls the pace of the story and relays all information about the setting for every scene.
  • The Narrator assumes control over all non-protagonist characters, including antagonists and deuteragonists.
  • The Narrator decides difficulties for actions, determines the results of character actions, and interprets card draws.
  • The Narrator is responsible for introducing new characters, settings, and rules.

The Narrator has a lot of powers at their disposal but also a lot of elements to keep track of.
