[QUOTE="Primitive Screwhead, post: 5959779, member: 20805"] Read all the way through, and since your asking ;) I love the concept of a Doomed Slayer caste and how you have set it up to provide restrictions and expectations for how others will relate to members of this group.. a perfect explanation for how the world works with roving bands of miscreants. IMC I will be adopting the mock funeral option and a specific branding, much like real life outlaws and slaves were once branded to signify their status. You have done an excellent job of detailing the caste and the guidelines it lives by. However.... The second portion of the book in which you provided a setting guide is something I won't be reading again. For a setting to be worth it to me it needs depth and breadth.. with Ebberon hitting the high marks for me. The world needs history, built in conflict, and an encompassing 'feel' to it. Not saying what you wrote isn't useful.. just not useful to me. Then, I hit the third section of the book. Advertisements in a paid for PDF? Eh. Glad I didn't do a print on demand option. So overall, I would rate Doomed Stalkers at a 4 out of 5 based on the first section alone. Drop it to a 2 out of 5 due to the excess material... but wait! Only $4? hey, I spend more than that on Mt Dew in a day or two. Its worth it. {and I need to cut down on my habit!} :) [/QUOTE]
