I think if you are looking for a storyteller that draws you into the experience and makes the story about your character and those of your group, seamlessly interweaving your various talents and skills into the story so even the least important one becomes a center point to the scene… then you gotta play with Far Scholar. His encounters are challenging. You feel the risk of dying, but it’s amazing how we just manage to endure and as a team, feel stronger for it! Even when death happens, it is never meaningless. A last chance salve and a bargain brought a character back and set my character onto a Quest for a passion that lead her to become a Questor. It became central to the character and feels central to the game. It really is hard to explain just how much fun these sessions are; I strongly recommend Far Scholar as a storyteller. One of the best, and I have been gaming since the 80s.
No n first color always provides a well-informed well thought out campaign with plenty of role-playing as well as good instructions for people who are not so used to role playing and have learned to get the hang of it through this GM he doesn't excellent job highly recommend to anyone who enjoys their fantasy role playing a little bit differently.
