Introduction: MTL Game Log

Nara or others in what might be called "Stevan's Montreal Game Group" can use this blog to post notes/events/characters in quick posts before/during/after game sessions.

First Game: 
Title: Heroes of the Mists
GM: Nara
Players: Jeremie, Maryam, Memo, Richard, Stevan, and Noah

Synopsis: Heavy fog rolls across the land every night and the mists of day are never broken by day's light. Magic, if it ever existed, has been drained from every rock and being. Every village is a point of light in the darkness, and the fastest way to power is to become a village's hero.


You are a hero, but you are a hero of the mist, one of the few that can make the dangerous journey from town to town. Messenger, protector, defender... you protect your village from the monsters without.
