On The Thirsts Of The Damned or whatever (one week post-Take A Load Off)

[extrasaltypotato]

In my searching through the Stacks I had a thought about how to use my understanding of their filing system for fun and profit and I found a rare treasure.

While it’s not quite the set of On The Thirsts Of The Damned, the Rage of the Garou, the Hubris of Sorcerers, and the rest of the On the Foo of Bar games, nor my native Dungeoncrawlers, I found the next best thing from two tales to the left: the substantially similar games Vampire: The Masquerade and Dungeons And Dragons Fifth Edition, Revised, in the form of finished manuscripts with placeholder art and full of references to Page XX, on which presumably is found all wisdom.

I’ve half a mind to run both. If anyone has interest in a tabletop roleplaying game about being in the contemporary vampire mafia, or of renaissance derring do in a Free Company (doesn’t that seem familiar), you know how to reach me.

That. I can't help with. I see plenty of pictures now, between books and all, but at the same time I never really... dared to touch a quill.

Maybe we can ask around? Are illustrations needed for this kind of activities?

[extrasaltypotato]

You misunderstand me. Philip informed me that Editors can learn how to draw physical objects out of illustrations of them, which is where we will get the necessary supplies of Shiny Math Rocks required for play.

Though some evocative illustrations never hurt a game.

Oh! My apologies! I can extract things from books too if that can be of any help! So we know what differences are there between our roles in the library, then?

My card says I'm a revisionist but I'm not sure what that implies duties wise.

[extrasaltypotato]

You and I both. Fascinating.

I am not sure what roles other than Revisionist we can be assigned to, but we all of us are Editors.
