I'm running a character creation clinic for HackMaster (the current version) on Thursday, July 4 in the evening. Here, I'll walk players through building a character, making choices on skills and abilities, and providing some setting details and info on the game's various languages (so you can pick a cool in-game name). You can find the "game" here . If we don't finish up on Thursday, I can always help you one-on-one later. If you'd like to learn more about HackMaster and get a character ready for a future game (who will be sanctioned by an official HackMaster Association GM), come on by.
