DFRPG / Noob GM Help: Casefile Neutral grounds
« on: May 31, 2011, 05:20:33 PM »
So I'm supposed to GM Neutral Grounds tonight so that my rpg crew can give fate a test run and a couple of little things are confusing me.
1) If the PCs investigate the murder scene and find evidence that points to Damocles (poser red court, I might have the name wrong) how do they identify that it is damocles? Specifically, should I just tell them about the characters that are involved (w/o specifying who's big bad and etc.) since their characters are presumed to be "in the know" or, alternatively, should they have to make a contacts/lore/whatever role to determine that vampire bite + sword wound = that asshole Damocles?
2) The casefile hints that you could have Damocles show up at Eric's house to mess with the PCs but... my assumption based on the timeline was that that would be during the daytime. Am I missing something, is it assumed that Damocles was camped out in the building already?
3) Any hints for how the search panned out? Hints on making the final battle exciting? Any other tips and tricks / wisdom people feel they should impart to me?
