SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Blackthorne

I liked the game TALISLANTA.
Instead of "X score gives you Y modifier"...your modifier IS your score.
I liked the currency.
I liked that slaves are on the equipment list.
And I liked the background charts, where you roll to see how many siblings you have, your birth order, how you get along with your mentor, and the professions of your parents + 1d3 NPCs from your background.

Very good.

I also liked "Primary Magic" "Secondary Magic" "Magical Training"
and its counterpart in combat training.

and the artwork.
