Matt,
I've downloaded and printed the current playtest files and will be giving feedback (having read most of the threads that seem relevant). But before I do that, I have to say that this is an incredible seeming little game and I really like how the rules seem to reinforce the setting and concept. Playtesting will tell the tale, but I am intrigued.

Now, to get my butt home, workout and deal with stuff there. Comments and questions to follow tomorrow and later.

Wonderful to hear it, Trey (hope it's ok to call you that).

For you and other playtesters, I jus finished up a revised character sheet, with a hint of how I'm going to tie the two virtues more strongly to Muses. I'd tell, but even I don't know yet! I'm headed to a playtest tonight, which should help.

Check out the new character sheet, with credit to Antti Karjalainen for creating the original. This one is a bit more refined and includes some new places for new mechanics and revisions:

Like the subject line says...
First, please go ahead and call me Trey.

I like it, and if as you've mentioned elsewhere, linked the muses to a planet, then I know I've a friend who will eat this up with a spoon (I sent him the link to your site and asked him to take a look), since he's the one who introduced me to astrology.

Now a question - any chance we'll see the new muses and their rules soon, either here or in a .pdf?

Anyway, mil gracias!
