| I kind of agree with the idea of not making the game too much of a "who's who on fohguild.org" type of thing. A normal RPG that happens to have the occasional board reference is preferable, IMO, to a nonstop fohguild.org shout-out list somehow in the form of an RPG.
Perhaps a better way to make references to people is through itemization? Naming items after certain people will prevent you from having to drag the game's storyline down with nonstop board-based characters. |
