Story Mechanisms: creating a story profile instructions (part 3)

In the first two posts, so far I've organized the information, and I've started a story plot diagram for Story Mechanisms.



For the next tool creation, I continue with the next tools in the original planned hierarchy, the Three Conflict Chain RPG.

1.The first information generated in that book is the opening. I add sections for both opening type and specific opening out of the 36 random openings.

Next, is adding the inciting event.

Above that, I add the 1st and 2nd conflicts with the same details as the final conflict.

2. I also need room for twists and results for conflicts.

3. Mood-Emotion should have a section, which I will add down near either the setting or theme.

4. Next, I'll switch to the Deep Dive Engine.

I probably need sections under this basic structure for these.

Okay, looking over this structure, it looks fairly complete or good enough for now to begin using. I can change and adjust it later as it's being used if need be.

The next post in this series, I hope to begin making an example of using the Story Mechanisms book using this sheet.
