Disclaimer: It’s been a while since I’ve run Mutants and Masterminds. Since then I’ve played at a convention, and I’ve made characters, but I have at least kept up a bit with M&M 3rd edition, and I’ve even made up a character that I’ve yet to play in a friend’s campaign, because life is a complicated thing when it comes

Read moreEarlier this week I got my Fate Core rulebook from backing the Kickstarter. The really weird this is that initially I didn’t have much of an interest in Fate. Then sometime between when the Kickstarter began, and when I pledged, I really started getting into the Dresden Files, and ended up getting the RPG. I was a little lost, as
Read moreA couple of experiences in the last few months have brought something to the forefront of my twisted gamer brain.
