Other people have commented on the coolness of the geomorphic tiles, which I loved too. But another thing that really hooked me is the Reroll Table, you know, the one that lists 25 items you have to include in your narration to get a reroll. It seems like a great idea jumpstarter that could inspire players and take things in new directions unexpectedly.

I was thinking how Players/GMs might want to costumize different tables to get a different atmosphere for that campaign/session in particular (somewhat similar to the effect you get on Sorcerer, for example, when you costumize tiny things like Descriptors). Don't know if it would work or not, but hey, I just thought it cool! :)

I totally agree about the customized re-roll tables. The items in the text are kind of like my own customized re-rolls that I always wanted for Trollbabe. Maybe I'll even include a blank line on the character sheet for each player to write their own re-roll item. That will get the wheels turning.
