I'm back from North Star gaming convention and it was great fun. 😁 Here are some GM tips, which are not new, but bare repeating: You are the independent arbiter of the game, welcome ideas and support for the players. Remember you're all responsible for the fun, so devolve that responsibility 1/

Britain. 1813. Across the island, the folk ballads of the common people are coming to life. The dead walk, dragons rise, lovers betray one another, authorities condemn innocents to die — whatever happens in the song happens in real life. My latest TTRPG is now live on Kickstarter!
