Hey Storytellers,

Sometimes you need a good hook to get your players to another location to move the game forward.

I have seen two types of players: 1) Those that love to create and role-play their character or 2) Those that barely come up with the name of their own character, let alone their character's backstory.

It seems easy to use a player's backstory as a hook to move your game forward if your players have a backstory, but what do you do if your players barely have their own name memorized?

That is what we talk about in this episode and the answer is pretty simple - if they don't give you a backstory then the game master can create one.  Yes, we even talk about how to do this if all of your players say they were orphans with no friends.
