Character Relationship Pages
A fellow player and I have stumbled upon something quite fun - making a private page dedicated to our characters' relationship.
We created a new private game just to discuss our characters' relationship from another game (with our narrator also in on it)... and the secrets we've developed between them are really exciting. It's actually quite fun!
It's also a great way to keep track of facts that you and that player establish as the story moves forward - facts only those two characters (and the narrator) would know.
Rather than making an extra game (like we did) or using a PM system, we think this could be an exciting and useful feature within each Storium game. Perhaps, when you click on the face of a character in the sidebar, an extra link would read "See Relationship", taking you to this conversation that only you, that player, and the narrator could see.
Of course, some might suggest that this could be done in PMs. However, this alternative would be more of an official (and organized) way of storing relationship facts (and planning secrets) with other players and the narrator - directly tied into the mechanics of that one particular game.
Just throwing it out there. There's something about this private conversation we're having that feels just as much a part of the game as the game itself. It's been a lot of fun. Thanks for reading!
