It's generic fantasy, and boring geometry, all around you but the descriptions of items and dialogue make the setting come alive. The flavor text, and there's a lot of it, is fantastic for world-building and developing a sense of place in a game that would otherwise be nonexistent.

Finishing that EP from forever ago? Fuck that noise. Pen and paper game? Eh, it's too much like Pathfinder so I'll go play that. I know, I have another blog that's a supposed "part 1." Well, if you read it then you should know that I will totally own up to never going through with side-projects and high concept ideas I might have.
