The GM does recommend reading all of the chapters in a given Story before moving on to the next Story, but this isn’t absolute. Neither way to read the logs is better or worse than the other. Reading the logs by Character Order will let you zero in on the story of a particular character. Reading the logs by Narrative Order will give you a more immediately comprehensive picture of broader events.
It’s like how in ASoIaF, you can read chapters in the order of Arya I, Sansa I, Tyrion I, Bran I, Arya II, etc… or you can just binge through all of the Tyrion chapters. Character Order? Readers will notice that the end of adventure every log has links which read “Next/Previous by Narrative” and “Next/Previous by Character.” What are these? Essentially, they let you pick whether you want to cut between different characters as you read through chapters, or stick with a single character for many chapters. However, it’s not for the faint of heart! B&B’s posted logs are thousands of pages long in Word/Office and can take quite a while to read through. This order gives the fullest and most complete picture of the chronicle’s events. If that’s you, the GM recommends reading the logs in their posted chronological order, starting with Story 1. This option is best for people who want to read the whole chronicle from start to finish. If you want to continue Caroline’s story, the GM recommends reading her logs in the following order: Amelie Story 1 (it sets up the events of Caroline’s storyline), Caroline Story 3, 4, 6, 7, etc.As with Celia, the GM recommends not reading the logs of the other PCs in Stories 3, 8, 9, etc. If you want to continue Emmett’s story, if you liked the taste of him you got in Story 10, the GM recommends reading Em’s logs in the following order: Emmett Story 3, 8, 9, 12.It will be an inferior reading experience without the context of their preceding story arcs. The GM does not recommend (immediately) reading the logs of other PCs in Stories 11, 12, etc. If you want to continue Celia’s story, you can read the rest of her logs in numeric order-Celia Story 11, 12, 13, etc.Once you finish Story 10, you face a fork.
Story 10 includes characters and references events from previous adventure logs, but reading those isn’t necessary to understand Story 10. The GM considers Story 10 to have some of the game’s best writing, tightest plotting, and considers Celia to be one of the game’s most compelling PCs. This option is best for readers who don’t want to immediately commit to reading a thousands-page chronicle.įor such readers, the GM recommends starting with Story 10, which chronicles the journey of Celia Flores from sheltered college student to ruthless vampire.
