[QUOTE="ThirdWizard, post: 5580427, member: 12037"] This is a retelling of a one shot Dresden Files RPG I GMed on May 27th with three of my regular players two of which I've been playing D&D with for over a decade and the last I'm married to. I love the system, and I think the game captured some of the feel of the novels, although their characters are [i]nothing[/i] like Harry Dresden!
