Hello
So the "twist" of this Dresden Files RPG is that it is being written by the characters of the Dresden Files (notably, Billy and Harry, with Bob and others chipping in). In the novels, this has been attempted before (by Bram Stoker) and it had a devastating effect on the Black Court.
... so... will the RPG have an impact on the novels? Will gamer geeks chase red court vampires out of town? Will the Merlin try to have Harry expelled for revealing precious secrets? Will Harry play the RPG with the Alpha and complains about erratas? Will the Denarians try to burn down Evil Hat's office?
;D

I figured it was more along the lines of Harry always haring off after the Trap du Jour.

And a liberal amount of wizard hexing.
We've been getting it from all sides.

Like my grandma allways told me:
"Nothing good ever comes easy or cheap."
So I figure the Holy Grail of Urban Fantasy Role-Playing Games should be worth whatever the cost in time and money.
Sanity points, now that's a different story....
(Or maybe I should say an extreme mental consequnce with lasting effects...)

DV might need Chuthulu style sanity points.
Though you're showing your age. Young whipersnappers dont play CoC.

This is also a truism that should be inculcated among everyone in any kind of business. "Good, fast and cheap - you can have any two at any time, but never all three at once."

This is an Engineering motto.
You can have it done Right.
You can have it done Fast.
You can have it done Cheap.
Pick two.
