- Lots of RPGs start the same way - the old man in the tavern, the villager under attack, or a legend of a lost temple. But if you're looking for new ways to hook your players and kickoff an adventure in an amazing new way, check out this video! Doesn't matter if you play Dungeons & Dragons, Call of Cthulhu, GURPS, or more... the Teleportation Hut will help any gamemaster.

I started my current campaign with the players imprisoned by a lieutenant of the bbeg. The players had to break out of the prison, find all of their belongings, and then escape the fairly large dungeon the prison was placed in.
It took like 3 sessions just to get out.
Afterwards, they knew they had to go back and deal with this threat, and the wizard wanted his spell book back.
That opening gave them at least 5 sessions of content and introduced the central narrative of the campaign.
Nice! I’m going to have to add “prison break” to my list of openings to cover - that’s a great one!
This sounds like a great start to a Dresden Files
Great video! I find your openings very useful.
It's a good idea and similar to what WOTC did with the Yawning Portal. In many ways this is the entire backbone of Doctor WHO, Sliders, Stargate... :)
If it works for them, why not in your own campaign.
Yes! I totally should have referred to those other examples...!
I think I could use this idea for my steampunk world. Lots of gears and sparks! Maybe even travels through time?!
Oh that would be cool. Especially if you are running a campaign and travel back to a previous adventure.
It's a train station as it railroads players where to go.
Nah, that’s like saying Keep on the Borderlands railroads you into the Caves of Chaos. You could easily teleport the players into a new land filled with politics, exploration, weird villages, etc. The better argument would be I stole it from the old D&D cartoon 🙂
This hut is strange, the lettering isn’t letters! It’s like a large language model approximating letters!
