[QUOTE="Ruin Explorer, post: 9678605, member: 18"] It kinda is though! It reminds me of a lot of some 5E 2014 art where it looks unfinished because that's exactly what it is - they paid the artist for X amount of work, and if they'd wanted something that looked finished and cleaned up and so on, they'd need to have paid twice that because of the sheer hours of work involved. There are sexy vampires and then there are vampires that look like strippers and then there are vampires that look like strippers standing next to vampires that look like a couple of vampires who giving off a really weird American Gothic (the painting, not the show(s)) meets Curb Your Enthusiasm vibe (and not in a scary way lol). Given the book[I] seems[/I] like it's at least semi-satirical this may be intentional of course - check out the list of organisations the PCs can join - I don't really think "The Night Court" (lol, I'd love to compare a list of the NPCs involved with that to the cast list [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_Court']here[/URL]) or "The Dethkillers [sic]" are intended to be taken entirely seriously. Nor does the take on Fishmen seem like it's entirely jest-less. [/QUOTE]
