The rules and advice in this book frequently refer to three main structures of a game. A campaign is your group's game as a whole, a serialized story consisting of one or more adventures. Each adventure tells a single story arc with a beginning, middle, and end; it includes many interactions, challenges, and encounters. An encounter is a single showdown or contest between the player characters and their foes or other nonplayer characters.
