So what am I talking about when I say I’m refreshing old titles? I don’t want to call them new editions, but I also don’t want to imply that I’m not doing anything more than slapping new covers on them. A lot if it has to do with creating unified narrative roleplaying terminology, moving away from what I think is tabletop roleplaying baggage, and trying to make all of these books written across a decade and in various states of mind all feel like part of a coherent body of work.

I realized I that my target audience were avid readers who might not have considered roleplaying. It’s all storytelling. It’s all rooted in the humanities. Okay, maybe not the constant killing thing, but literature, history, mythology, it’s all in there. I want to show people that there’s far, far more to this medium than Dungeons & Dragons. Hopefully it’s an easier sell than convincing D&D players that there’s a whole world of possibilities beyond kill-loot-level-repeat.
