Gaming Tips

Tips for Players
Be loyal to your companions. One day, they'll be the only thing standing between you and certain doom.

Tips for GameMasters
Move the Spotlight - Give every character a chance to prove themselves by making them the focus of a subplot. A good way to do this is to bring up a disadvantage, a contact, or something dark from their background. Not only will they get an emotional kick, they'll have a chance to earn bonus XP. They'll also come to appreciate the extra work and stress endured by a party leader.

From the RPG Glossary...
"Tetsuo, you bonehead!" - Exclamation used to accuse someone of stupidity; quoting "Akira".
