Very newbie DM here. I seek your wisdom, or at least semi-helpful group head-scratching and muttering at my problem!
I'm cobbling together a campaign from my imagination and the pre-written modules. We just started. My players are beginning as a party experiencing their first Incident as civilians, all working (and often living in the rooms above) a block of shops and businesses where Baddies are afoot. I intend to bring them into the tent at the end of the Incident juuuust enough to get bits and bobs of training and be monitored, but then released back into normal life for 4 days/week at whichever place of business they were in before. Y'know, until they get sent to do stuff.
Have any of you run the Laundry HR intake of your players? Recommendations on to preserve the Laundry flavor with at least bits of each person's interview? How do I keep this fun or eliminate the turn-waiting boredom? I'm contemplating giving them all a very quirky questionnaire and then starting the interviews with my husband's character, since I can give him the questionnaire a few days before. Not a very complete solution, but that's as far as my brain is going on this one. Other ideas? Better ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Yours in ISO-9001 meta-hell,
Chris F.
