Controlling sorcery!

I love the magic system in Forbidden Lands. It's dangerous and powerful, sorcerers are rare and should not use magic for everything like in other settings. I also love the safe casting rules, allowing powerful sorcerers to use low level magic without risking eternal perdition in a plane full of demo...

Re: Why play a caster?

True, it's a pretty good table! But just to emphasise on the perceived difficulties for casters to obtain WP... you either homebrew it (I like dangerous potions, see above) or they start being clever sorcerers and use TRANSFER on unconscious enemies to steal their WP, and then use a grimoire and spe...

PCs in Destroyer of Worlds

Hi all, I'm preparing to run Destroyer of Worlds with four players, but Charlie Squad contains seven characters to choose from. This is great, but I wonder if there are any "priority PCs" that wold derive in a more interesting play session. I was thinking Dante (because of the infection), ...

Re: Future scenarios/campaigns

Thanks, I'll definitely take a look to those.
