So, I've been reading this comic lately (yesterday, to be precise).

So, I've been reading this comic lately (yesterday, to be precise). And, well, that's a story I would want to tell via SWM. It's full of inspiration. Great characters. Strange towns / sceneries. Surprises. I think to make it as an eidolon for a short run.

Bonjour les Aventuriers ! Oups, sorry, pardon my french ^^.
I'm a french gamer, and I will soon host some games at a convention (Utopiales @Nantes). So I'm preparing Rogues in order to jump right into the adventure. You can see them on my blog. I stole some Simulacras here, other elsewhere.

The process of creating a Rogue is very entertaining and rewarding for a creative mind. Just for that, thank you !
