Hey all. THings have been a bit busy for the last, oh, year. But Spyscribe over at the Halmae thread has shamed me into finishing this up. Updates once a week until it's wrapped. I hope some of you who dig it are still around. I promise, the spooky nastiness starts up again next post...

DARK CANADA CH. 3 Flynn walked into the living room of his home balancing a coffee pot and some mugs. He looked out the front window, did a double-take. "Your friend's collpased in the snow." "She does that," Ross nodded, refusing to be fooled by Flynn's distraction. (DM's Note: Nope...

Well, if the boards hadn't eaten the ENTIRETY of the last post ... gahhh, been so long, I forgot -- write in Word, then cut and paste. Coming soon, especially as I'll be doing more gaming stuff over at the website soon. www.kfmonkey.blogspot.com

Totally Flynn's fault. Completely. I did indeed get swamped, by my own laziness, and some scheduling crap. Will try to bang this out this weekend.

Hey -- enough with the party, blah blah get to the bitchin' guest stars! Oh, and DRUNK SOUTHERN GIRLS gets a re-start this week, to finish it off. Thought you'd want to know. And Ross is publishing comics. And I have your DVD of ... you know what. Pimp the blog, so I don't have to. :mad:

A year? Jeebus. All right, I'll update this week, if only to give the story a nice finish. But in the meantime, swing on over the my blog at Kung Fu Monkey -- www.kfmonkey.blogspot.com. Ross from this Story Hour is Ross Richie, who's now publishing comics at his very own BOOM! Studios. Next...

Full Metal Alchemist is my new favorite. But tell me, "BCCS"?

By the way, Kenson, big props on Blue Rose. It's become the basis for the universal modern system I've been toiling on for years. Really, nicely done. I plan on using a variant of its design for my first official-type gaming release.

I'd like to chime in here. GRIM TALES' take on balancing EL's with the party changed the entire dynamic of my campaign (for the better) and the CR calculations allowed me to do some horrible mutation-like things to the PC's, while the EL system kept the encounters balanced. Seriously, these two...

If you're digging SW, google "Shark Bytes". It's a fanzine with some really, really impressive content.

Actually I was recommending Alternity not for its dice grit -- you foul mechanics, you :P -- but for its character design ideas, which was the question I believe originally began this thread. Combat, Freelance, Expert and Diplomat, if I remember correctly. The characters were built up by HOW...

Alternity. Al-ter-ni-ty. Find it on EBay or I think there's a .pdf on RPGnow. It was the best designed, generic system, and you can see the roots of the D20 evolution in there. Go. Get it. Trust me.

That chapter, if it's feats and skills based, not being OGL, that's ... funky. No matter. I'm working off the ideas in Pyschich's Handbook and M&M anyway.

OGL baby. Once I finish this new movie, you and I can sit down and do it up right. Because MY system has variants for Psi, Gadgets, and Magic "tone."

I've been slaving for a year to come up with universal FX, and they've gone and DONE IT? When in the name of all that's holy does this come out? WHEN? Green Ronin, hitting home run after home run.

My. God. You defended a village ... and actually left it standing?. My players would have begin by burning it to the ground, thereby throwing off the goblins who were expecting things like houses and such. As always, a lovely job. And if you don't mind a thread hijack, you should take a look...

Huh. I actually wish I played him this cool. Nicely done.

*BUMPED* for the sake of sheer bumpage joy. I like Roques writing, and this is the way to get more of it. Positive reinforcement. Now, type, damn you!

Don't make me have to write my own chapter, pal ...
