Generate the loss that starts a frontier story, with witnesses, evidence, and aftermath.
Generate the incident that starts a frontier story: what was just lost, who saw it, and how the settlement has changed since. Seven fields cover What Was Lost (a hunting party of four, though their dogs came home), How Long Ago, Who Saw It Happen, What Was Found After, The First Explanation, What Changed in the Settlement, and Who It Hit Hardest. The output is an inciting incident with witnesses, evidence, and consequences already attached. Use it to open a one-shot in the middle of the action, hand investigators a fresh trail, or mark the moment a quiet setting stops being quiet.
This generator creates: What Was Lost, How Long Ago, Who Saw It Happen, What Was Found After, The First Explanation, What Changed in the Settlement, Who It Hit Hardest.
