My babblings on roleplaying games, of a variety of sorts including "old school" ones, but focused on adventure gaming principles over media emulation

The Reward
The Reward from The Animation Workshop on Vimeo.
This is a really good animated epic fantasy. It includes everything you need: epic visuals, character arcs, conflict, fantastic situations, and all of it in nine minutes.
However, the thing about it that I like most is that it exemplifies why the D&D formulation of "zero to hero" is awesome. Starting characters who already have power and authority are not nearly as interesting as ones that have developed those in play.
Also, there are just a couple more days in the poll about the next Obscure Games review. Vote!
