Blitzed is fascinating, and seems likely to help explain behavior in modern groups like high finance and politics.

Okay, so I didn’t miss anything. Thanks. It’s just that Cthulhu is down the list some of Great Old Ones I’d link with Innsmouth. (What I’d do with it is a write up of not as an intrusive element in an existing setting, but that’s just me.) Guess we’ll all know in a couple of months.

Do we actually have any reason to believe Cthulhu is in it? The article writer said “presumably”; I don’t remember WotC giving thm reason for the presumption.

My cardio rehab case manager describes herself as one “who can be kind of a dick” when not working with clients, having to rein in sarcasm in journals and notes and like that. So it’s as you say. :)

Everything domestically is still on fire, but I’m test-driving some firefighting techniques and crave some chatter. And here you are.

It looks like nobody ever answered the question about what “indie” means. The Forge put forth a definition I like: the creators own their work. This a very clear, bright line. Nothing I did for White Wolf or Onyx Path counts - it was all work for hire. What I did for Pagan Publishing did count...
