The Spartan Show Adventurer's Guild broadcasts live over Twitch.tv and related services. Audience members can interact through real time chat and other features.

One feature we are experimenting with includes the ability of viewers to use accumulated XP (or through direct donation) to influence aspects of the continuing adventure. Options may range from very minor little influences, to significant impact (without creating chaos to the overall story line).

 

We are working out the details on how much each option will "cost".

Please keep watching the show for additional updates.

This page will be updated as needed without prior notice.

Thank you for your support of The Spartan Show Adventurer's Guild. Be sure to support all the great broadcasts from The Spartan Show on the SpartanShow.tv website and related sites.

Generally each item may not occur more than once per game session, nor back-to-back sessions. If submitted later in the broadcast, may not be able to incorporate into the game until the following game session broadcast.

Experimental XP cost listings for each feature

50 A murder of crows.
