Graduate your Game? Damn thought I repressed those memories.
So, I’m assuming that there won’t be any space in the book for playable Non-Exalted splats, like Fair Folk, Mountain Folk, or Dragon Kings, but it would be nice to know if those are even being considered as stretch goals for the Companion book.
Just so we know whether or not to get our hopes up.
Woohoo! Can’t wait for the kickstarter! Or Exigents… Or Across the Eight Directions… Or Hundred Devils Night Parade….
