Fortunately, we've had Ben Aaronovitch himself on board from the start to ensure Rivers of London the RPG suits the tone of the books.


d100 ≠ binary, as commenters have already pointed out in this thread.

I've only read the first 3 or so books, but one of the things that I really didn't like was the "fey" basically enslaving people who accepted hospitality from them. (For example, a man accepted a cup of tea when he came to read the meter and apparently never got to see his wife and children again.)

Maybe this is addressed in later books, but in the ones I read the police attitude was "It's a shame, but what can you do?"

How does this feature in the RPG?
