Anson has the exceptional ability to fit the game to the player style. You want to Zerg it? Kill'em all. You want to Sherlock every detail? Bring your magnifying glass. You want to hire your enemies' army out from under them? Bring your checkbook. It's all good, but the best stuff is Horror. You want a couple of new nightmares? Anson will give you plenty to draw from.

How to prepare

How will character creation work
Character translation will be handled by me ahead of the game. Provide a PDF copy of any character you have already played from any RPG. Literally any character from any RPG that you have already created. The only limit is it needs to be an RPG that has character creation rules.
