My group is still "young" so I do my rolls behind the screen (which, more often than not, belongs to my laptop). Mostly, because the story is the point for us. I'm not afraid to let the characters get their butts whooped -- or the bad guys theirs, for that matter -- if it'll enhance the st...

Let's add the Cheesemaster while we are at it. If I told my players that their was now a Discipline in Earthdawn that had the talent "Cheese Weaving", there would be laughter and five minutes of silliness. (It's a long story. Suffice it to say that a night of the Baron Munchausen RPG got ...

p. 276, but, uhm...

HOLY HANNAH! WOWZERS! Et cetera.

I know one little mage that's gonna be awfully happy....

Thanks!
