Best Practices

Do

  • Give each faction a clear public identity that differs from its hidden agenda
  • Create factions with overlapping territories or resources to generate natural conflicts
  • Include rank-and-file members, not just leadership, so factions feel populated
  • Let faction attitudes toward the party shift based on player actions over time
  • Use faction plot hooks as side quests that advance both personal and organizational goals

Don't

  • Don't make factions purely evil or purely good — ambiguity drives better stories
  • Avoid factions that only exist to hand out quests without their own agenda
  • Don't create factions with identical structures and just swap the flavor text
  • Avoid letting players ignore a faction entirely — give every one a reason to matter
  • Don't reveal all a faction's secrets at once — let players uncover layers over time
