RiddickDale said:The mist mechanic allows plot teams to control what comes into their game and what stays out from a plot standpoint. Examples being NPCs, PC controlled NPC resources (like armies, siege weapons, etc), and Monsters.
The mists serve as a plot device to help chapters stay distinct, but there is no reason why consenting plot teams cannot allow their armies/monsters to spread to each others chapters.
That's the sorta thing I was referring to.
Chapter 1 comes up with an awesome monster, the Arachnolepus. Chapter 2 thinks they're awesome and asks chapter 1 about them, then looks them up in the Monster Database to have properly statted out monster cards for them.
Chapter 2 then suffers a Plot-induced case of spiderabbits, whose combination of cute and creepy terrorize the kingdom.
