DEFCON 1's latest activity

Really? There is nothing a DM cannot rule against or overrule. Yes a spelled out rule means it is more likely to work consistently...

Do we really need an umbrella term for mixed-heritage species? Can’t such species just have their own unique names, like Khoravar and...

That’s generally how it goes with older, more experienced gamers and these “new fangled” game systems. Decide they’re bad without...

I love 7S2e, which is weird because I hated it when I first read the books. I literally put them on my shelf for a decade and forgot...
