New update for Cascade today, backers only because the playbooks are out of playtesting. They need editing, along with plugins as well, but otherwise are done! We are waiting on contributing writers and then can send all the text for editing before layout. Coming along nicely! You’ll notice the new playbooks are a different colour, have character name suggestions, and look better via layout!

I also released an update on DrivethruRPG that adds a section under “Look” for character name suggestions for the original Veil playbooks, too!

Just to say that I’ve really enjoyed reading The Veil on my short break away from reality (how fitting).

Just to say that I’ve really enjoyed reading The Veil on my short break away from reality (how fitting). I’m due to run the game at revelationgames.org.uk in February as a short one shot. I think I’m going epic, with a narrow theme that emerges and builds in a primed setting.

I’m not sure I can fully do the game advice the justice it deserves, but a mind bending session beckons.

I’ll write up when I can get to a keyboard. I’ll pop back for advice as needed.

So I’ve been a little stumped lately on ways I can challenge the Empath in my game.

I’d love some suggestions.

Folks have reached out stating their distaste for the use of the word “Giri” in The Veil today.

This change has already been made for 2nd printing that is upcoming. If you feel like there is more problematic content in the game than just that this, and you do want to reach out, which I do not expect you to be obligated to do for any reason. Feel free to contact me.

I’ll update everything later on, so far this is the only change beyond the update already on DrivethruRPG.

They feel pretty similar to me.

Hi Fraser Simons

Hi Fraser Simons

Hi Fraser Simons,

I have one question regarding Glitch City. When you talk to the Manikin Man, there is something in the 7-9 result I don’t completly grasp.

“

On a 7-9, the Manikin Man will provide a choice: A terrible secret or a beautiful moment from one of your memories lost to you, as chosen by the player sitting to your left. If they choose a terrible secret they take +1 forward and marks XP. If a beautiful moment they take -1 forward. Whichever is chosen the player who rolled the move describes their memory.

“

Is the person to your left, the one who makes the choice, also the person to get the +1 and XP or the -1 ?? Or does he only choose it and it is you who gets that?
