Andrew’s an inspiration. He’s taken my minimalist little twentysome page system and Jack’s delightfully gothic muskets-and-werewolves setting blogposts and turned it into a gorgeously realized game.

Reinterpretation can be deeply rewarding, if that person shows you new ways to think and dream within the context of your own creation. Though his World Between is not my World Between...I would play in Andrew's games in a heartbeat...I like many of Andrew's innovations enough to now use them in my games. I'd wager that you will also find much to love in the pages that follow as well.

Andrew Shields is a
prolific blogger producing excellent content that flies entirely too low on the radar. He has about one million other cool things that if you took a free afternoon and searched around, you would have a million gaming ideas and immediately want to play.

Whenever you create something and then allow other people to use what you've created, it is always fascinating to see what that interaction produces. I must admit that seeing my stuff through Andrew's eyes has been really gratifying. Thanks, Andrew!

"Crumbling Epoch" is another great experiment in the Fictive tradition, and I’m proud to have contributed to it in some small way.

Last but not least, the Goblin. This was one of the most problematic for me structurally, if not thematically. I’ve smoothed it out to be more consistent with how I think the game should run, and I’ve added a slightly different flavor to it. Mechanically, I think the goblin is just as hard core as it was to begin with. I adjusted it to work more cleanly.
