Man living in Chicago is asked what his favorite bear is and does not mention the Chicago Bears nor the Chicago Cubs.
That’s because I’m a white Sox fan. Boom.
I can’t wait for information on the Church of Caine. I do hope there’s some options for playing humane Noddists, though.
Every tidbit about the Folio and LTSRR Chronicles is appreciated.
I can’t tell if I am more interested in the Blood Gods or Deviant Kickstarters.
