How have you used dreams in tabletop roleplaying games?

Post by 1stop »

Tabletop roleplaying games allow using dreams as a means of narration. They give us some visions/clues/mysterious warnings which can be used to provide suspense and add depth to the story.

Honestly I've never thought about this until now! Whenever my wife and I can get a group together to play a tabletop game I think I might try to locate some of the notes I've written about the dreams I've had in the past and see if I could incorporate them into a campaign!

I don't think I've ever done this, but it is a very interesting concept.

Dreams could be used to predict what is to come during the game. It makes the game very intriguing and makes the game immersive.
