This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: J.L. Duncan;850074Just to let you know King,

I plan to do a review of Great and Small for Knights of the Dinner Table, from what you have available.
Cool!  I look forward to seeing what you think.

I haven't had a chance to actually playtest the rules yet (though that's coming, along with a report on the session, next month), so feedback is more than welcome.

On a related note, I'll be a doing a Q&A for Great & Small on the Hardboiled GMshoe's #rpgnet chat on Tuesday, Sept. 1 at 7 p.m. CDT/5 p.m. PST.

You've really thought this out a lot... I like it.  Envisioning cute furry animals gobbling up magical swords is making me giggle at the moment though.  I am imagining a bunny sword-eater.

Bunny Sword-Eater would make a great name for a female barbarian in a gonzo campaign, too.

LOL, oh my, I might just have to play that character now.... if whatever GM that's running the game doesn't kill me for it.

Very cool on the raven writeup, I like it, and it reminds me a little of an avian character I played recently (of a race that also had the whole compulsive thievery thing going on).  They fit the whole misunderstood trickster thing very well, with a tinge of necromancy there  (all appropriate).

Thank you.  I'm glad you like it. :)

I love the idea of playing a familiar too... they usually are badly neglected (players really do sometimes just totally forget they have them), but they have so much potential.  I actually did for part of a session have players go off on a short adventure playing their familiars and animal companions though, that was fun.
