slaguru666andClaude Opus 5 4044c18354 THE FAVOUR: rewrite as direct sequel to The Princes Bride
Witch Finder Garratt is the NPC from Faversholme (Continuum 2026, Sun Slot 7),
spelled Garratt. The scenario now runs forward from that game's written bonus
scene - the blank column in his ledger - and wires the returning pregens' seams
into the case. Blocker resolved in the production tracker; Warhorn blurb and
slate updated.

Directories are created as their content is written; every game starts with a README.md and a scenario outline.


Status

Framework stage. The slate is fixed and every game has a synopsis, design intent, act skeleton and open-questions list. One game (AFTERIMAGE) is already convention-ready and only needs porting. Full scenario drafts, pregens, handouts and playtests are the work ahead — see docs/production-tracker.md.
