Pre-Release Review of Amethyst: Foundations by Dias Ex Machina (Part 2) from NEUROGLYPH Games
“If technology worked, the science behind it also had to. Science declared magic as myth. You can’t throw fire from your hands. You can’t fly without proper wings. You can’t be succumbed by the temptations of an elvish princess. “There’s nothing out there,” his brother said. He lied.

Play Boldly from Critical Hits » RPG
Following up on my last post, I intend to disparage no one, including my players past and present, but a malaise sets in on me occasionally when I’m playing a D&D game. Players seem lethargic. They don’t respond to the information given to them.

Homebrew classes with augmented powers from Geek Ken
