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.

CRAFTY GAMES TO PUBLISH MISTBORN RPG
Creators of Spycraft 2.0 to develop RPG Adaptation of Epic Fantasy Trilogy by Wheel of Time Author Brandon Sanderson

September 7, 2008 — PORTLAND, OR: Crafty Games LLC has reached an agreement with popular fantasy writer and author of the final volume of the Wheel of Time, Brandon Sanderson, to publish a roleplaying game based on his epic fantasy trilogy Mistborn. The game will arrive in 2009 and let players create their own exciting adventures in the Final Empire.

"Mistborn is an enchanting and innovative dark-fantasy series that's tailor-made for gaming," said Crafty Games partner Alex Flagg. "We're thrilled at the opportunity to work with Brandon to create a product capturing the unique magic, action, and intrigue that's made Mistborn such a hit with fantasy fans across the world."

"I've been a role player for years and I've looked forward to the day when I could help adapt one of my properties as an RPG setting," said Brandon Sanderson. "Mistborn is the perfect story for an RPG; the magic of Allomancy lends itself well to gaming and there are many untold stories to play out in this world of falling ash and cloaking mists. Crafty Games is one of the premier independent gaming companies out there and I'm ecstatic to be working with them!"

"We've got a great relationship with Brandon and he's already working with us to provide new content created specifically for the RPG," added Flagg. "Next year [2009] is going to be a great time for fans of Brandon, Mistborn, and Crafty alike."
