With The Valley Standard in hand, seasoned TTRPG veterans will have a practical guide to document their gaming sessions. This guide isn’t just another list of how-tos; it’s a useful reminder of the importance of keeping a solid record of your role-playing chronicles.

The cover section is like the basic information page of a manual but with some handy guidance on what to include. There’s a cover template that gets the job done concisely and without frills.

As for the log, it provides a clear structure for scenes and advises a good dose of organization with a differentiation between descriptive and mechanical text. Using randomizers to resolve questions is a practical tip to maintain the freshness of your narratives.

The appendix, while not offering specific advice on making it more visually interesting, allows flexibility to update and expand information as the game progresses. This section can be a useful catch-all for additional details.

The Valley Standard isn’t an abstract art piece for role-playing games; it’s a practical tool that reminds you that good documentation can be as important as the game itself. A reliable companion that will accompany you on your adventures, ensuring your memories don’t fade into the darkness of time.

I invite you to visit the project’s website for more information and useful resources, and to remember that it will be the style guide used to document the sessions posted on the Wandering Die blog.
