This book is everything I wanted and more.

My group has been playing CoC every week for 10 years straight, so suffice it to say we've really SEEN SOME SHIT. Multiple long form campaigns, every splatbook and additional rule under the sun.

So when I say this is a remarkable addition to the CoC canon, know that I'm saying that fresh off of seeing absolute DELIGHT in the eyes of my veteran players.

If you want to give your players distinct gifts, burdens, and relationships, this is for you.

This rule system is great. I've always been drawn to systems that allow the creation of magical spells, and this one was particularly satisfying to play. It allows for such great oppurtunities for creativty and fun on the part of the players and seems very effortlessly balanced, very easily joining Achtung! Cthulhu as it is.

I have now played five sessions using this rule system and my players can't stop talking about it.
