If we can't, well, there's always murdering. There's something odd going on with the magic, with elements mixing up and whatnot (we can't be the only ones noticing it.. maybe first). Maybe the universe IS turning into gray goo. If it has time before Richard makes everything disappear.

The game worked well on so many levels! It was such fun to play a game where I got to (and had to!) improvise pretty much everything about my character, from his background to his motives, all the while trying to come up with a suitably dastardly plan to dispatch Mr. Allens/Petitjean. The flow of the game was wonderful, as Mauge pointed out. In an interesting display of meta-gaming, the easy-going nature of the game helped me and my character gain the trust of Mauge and his character. I've been reading a lot about this campaign, and having seen it in action am quite frankly impressed. Two thumbs up, and see you next Monday!
