Lore document: a cozy fantasy farming game
Setting
Hollowmere is a valley lake that breathes. Each spring the Thaw raises the water and drowns the low fields; each autumn the Ebb pulls it back and uncovers old ruins, shells and seeds. Villagers farm on terraces and floating rafts, and the year is planned around the lake rather than the sun.
History in brief: two hundred years ago the valley was dry, ruled by the city of Merrow. The city dammed the river to grow rich, the dam cracked, and the lake swallowed Merrow in one night. Survivors built the village of Hollow on the hills above. Nobody has dived to the old city in living memory — until now.
Factions
| Faction | Wants | Fears | Player's role |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Terrace Guild | Stable harvests and keeping the old ways | Change; outsiders "stirring the lake" | Main source of farming quests and tools |
| The Raft Folk | Freedom to move with the water; trade with the city downriver | Being pushed off the good shores | Sell rare goods, unlock boat upgrades |
| The Keepers of Merrow | To raise the sunken city's relics and learn why the dam failed | That the truth will blame their own ancestors | Lead the diving storyline |
Key characters
- Ada Fenwick, Guild elder — kind but stubborn; lost her brother to a Thaw flood. Motive: protect the village at any cost.
- Juno Reed, Raft Folk trader — cheerful, always a deal ready; secretly sends money to family downriver. Motive: buy her own boat.
- Brother Cal, Keeper — quiet scholar who found a Merrow diary. Motive: prove the flood was not an accident.
Quest outline: "What the Ebb Gave Back"
- Autumn, week 1: the Ebb uncovers a stone door near your farm. Ada wants it reburied.
- Week 2: Juno offers to trade a diving bell part for 20 lake lilies.
- Week 3: Cal decodes a symbol on the door: the mark of Merrow's dam engineers.
- Choice: open the door now (Cal's way) or wait for Guild approval (Ada's way). Each path changes who helps you in winter.
- Reward: first dive unlocked; a new crop, drowned barley, that grows only underwater.
Lore rules (to keep it consistent)
- The lake never rises outside the Thaw; any "sudden flood" in a story must have a cause
- No magic spells; wonder comes from nature and old engineering
- Merrow's people are never pure villains — they built the dam to end a famine
Client: a two-person indie studio. Game: Hollowmere, a cozy farming and exploration game for PC and Switch. Their idea: "farming on a lake where the water level changes with the seasons."

About this service
We write scenarios for live-action roleplay games, from a one-evening chamber LARP or murder mystery party to a weekend game: the setting, the central conflict, the plot threads and a character sheet for each player. Every character has goals that pull them into contact with others, secrets someone else wants, and ties that make the game run on player interaction, not on the organiser pushing the plot.

- 2DesignWe build the conflict and the web of roles
- 3WritingWe write sheets and organiser notes
What we need from you
The genre and setting, the number of players and how long the game runs, the venue (flat, castle, forest, online), the experience of your players, and topics to include or avoid.
We will ask you:
- What genre and setting is the game?
- How many players and how long does the game run?
- Where will it be played?
- Should any roles be gender-neutral or flexible?
