Walking in the World [Mage: The Awakening]

May The Fourth Be With You [Mage: The Awakening]

Philosophy is odious and obscure; Both law and physic are for petty wits; Divinity is basest of the three, Unpleasant, harsh, contemptible, and vile. ‘Tis magic, magic that hath ravished me. — Christopher Marlowe, Doctor Faustus Welcome back, faithful readers! You’ve all been patiently and not-so-patiently waiting for Mage‘s release. Every Monday Meeting…
