to express your character and make meaningful choices. I will be running
one tomorrow around 2pm PST. I will also be running additional
one-shots throughout the next two or three weeks on an ad hoc basis. Who can play? Anyone
and everyone. Long-time grognards, never played an RPG before, only
played D&D. Everyone is welcome to try this out and have some fun.
