If there were edits after that...

Dungeon World / Re: Level up = +1 to stat

How do you get a +5 when your stats max out at 18 (+3)?

Dungeon World / Re: How does Spell Defense work?

Krokus: I figured that was correct. It just seems a bit weird. I could see an occasion where you'd want invisibility up (as it's the only ongoing 1st lvl spell), but you wouldn't actually want anyone to be invisible.

Dungeon World / How does Spell Defense work?

I'm seeing two ways I can interpret the trigger description ("When you craft an ongoing spell into a makeshift shield of arcane energy to deflect an attack"):

1) You've cast invisibility, for instance on the Thief. Then a goblin is dealing damage, and you pull that spell energy into a shield, blocking 1 damage (invisibility is a level 1 spell) and ending the invisibility.

2) The other way I can see interpreting this is that you know the spell Invisibility, so you cast it as a makeshift shield that's ongoing. Later, you're attacked, so it blocks a damage and is ended.

I think the first interpretation is the correct one, though it seems a bit weird to me.

Apocalypse World / Re: Experience Stat

... and ... to focus their experience gain to that stat...

What do you mean by this? The highlighted stat doesn't focus their improvement on that stat; you could roll hard, gain experience, and take an improvement that raises weird.

This whole change is just likely to speed up improvement, as the class is likely to make a lot of rolls with their main stat if they're playing an archetypal example of that class.

Also: Who Fears Death by Nnedi Okorafor

Has maybe three settings worth of different types of imagery as the characters do the whole journey thing.

The Dark Tower series by Stephen King has some pretty great post-apocalyptic imagery.

The Stand by the same author does as well, although it's much closer to the apocalypse than AW.

You could also try A Canticle for Leibowitz for some ideas. (It's the shortest of these three.)
