GHOST/ECHO Wordles

Brandon came up with a cool idea. He took the setting words for GHOST/ECHO and made an excel sheet that randomly weights them so you can make Wordles out of them.

It's easier to understand if you take a look at one.

I like how the Wordle arrangement suggests relationships between the elements, as well as putting more emphasis on certain elements.

See the discussion thread on Story Games for more.

    Not really related, but pray Mr. Cunningham doesn't get hold of the term "Wordle". He'd use it for a character in a heartbeat.

    Like Delmore Truncate. Think I'm kdding? That was his changeling in the infamous Palladium game.

    Personally, I'm picturing a Champions guy who talks you to death, but I don't really get a vote.

    I remember Mr. Truncate. I think Pat used that name more than once (in CyberHERO? Maybe).

    And yes, Wordle is totally his Champions character that talks you to death. Funny.

    Hell, for all I know, the two guys were related. Did Truncate have a runesword and pretend to kill a dragon in your game, too?
