A (mundane, real-world) hiker’s reference guide would be very helpful for the travel rules. I don’t know how bad blisters are or how to treat them, but finding info is more useful than making rules about it. References for terrain would also be useful.
Thanks for the thought! I'm currently thinking of having sort of appendices for some of this stuff which, now you have said this, might benefit from also containing a bibliography of relevant useful sources.
I think the terrain things are something I am relatively likely to go into a bit more detail of - perhaps with types of resources/monsters/landscape features etc.
The alignment questionnaire is neat and the alignments themselves are evocative. Possible typo: it seems like Road and Exile are used interchangeably. I prefer Road, as it feels less prescriptive.
Thanks and thanks! You're right - Road is the one it should be. Exile was the original version, but I've been thinking of it as 'Road' for so long that my brain must have skipped over the actual use of the word Exile!
It looks like Exile was used in place of Life as well.
I will probably use this alignment system, though probably assign the Road and Life alignments to the range 11-14. I’d drop 15 from this range because if you rank all questions as 3 then you have a clear preference. It also may make the middle alignment rarer, which feels right.

Bro! We used to talk of kings
Excited to see where this ends up!!
Thanks a lot! It feels good to be actually sharing stuff.
