For those running a campaign, your players will appreciate when you go that extra mile. Here are a few things you can do to add just a little more realism to your fantasy campaign. (Good laugh on that!)
1) Make sure you have NPC names and short descriptions. If you plan on having them interact with your characters they need to have some sort of descriptions to make them more then 2 dimensions!
2) Have descriptions of where the characters are going. Even if you just mention the stones of the hallway under the keep are slick with slim and moisture, you've helped to add a bit to your ambiance.
3) Individualize rewards. Don't just have the Duke say, "And here is your reward". Have him had the fighter an etched sword, the mage a new book or the cleric an enemy holy symbol to crush.
4) Make sure to have something for each character's abilities. Don't forget the thief when you go into that dungeon. Throw a few traps in for him to disarm. Undead in there? Clerics can turn them. How about something the mage has to dispel to work?
Happy gaming!
