Since 2014, RPGaDay poses daily questions about RPGs in August.
Since 2015, we resist by delivering daily thematic material for RPGs in August.
This year, the theme of the alternate August activity was to be “allies”. Ally-a-Day.
But what is that? The enemy appears to lower their arms. Instead of posing questions, RPGaDay2019 presents single word prompts, suddenly opening a path leading past the About towards the For.
While we do not wish to ignore the hand so offered, neither do we wish to cast out our allies because the enemy for once appears conciliatory.
Neither just RPG-a-Day nor just Ally-a-Day.
Not or, but and.
Not minus. Plus.
RPG+Ally+a+Day
Day 15: Door + Allies
Door of Fire
A faint shimmer seems to surround this unassuming door. As you step closer a sudden heat wave overcomes you. You sweat profusely, you feel dizzy and stagger towards the door. You try to steady yourself, putting your hand against the door you expect its smooth stone surface to be cool. Instead a sharp burning sensation shoots up you arm. You straighten up and move away from the door.
When this door and the Door of Air are opened simultaneously by two creatures, the True Fire and True Air contained behind them intermingle and consume the place in a terrible explosion.

Door of Air
A soft breath of wind seems to emanate from this unassuming door. As you step closer a sudden gust of cold air overcomes you. You shiver, you feel chilly and stagger towards the door. You try to steady yourself, putting your hand against the door you expect its smooth stone surface to be unyielding. Instead you feel turbulent vibrations shoot up you arm. You straighten up and move away from the door.
When this door and the Door of Fire are opened simultaneously by two creatures, the True Fire and True Air contained behind them intermingle and consume the place in a terrible explosion.
