Hello heroes. The Dracula dossier Kickstarter is starting up today.

Since Kenneth Hight was nice enough to drop by the program and run a game for us, I'm reminding all of you today.

And I'm going to release a tiny bonus episode where Ken explains

meaning if it is necessary to move the story along meaning if I just really want you to know it it's free

If you spend one of those points, that gives you bonus material that gives you more details that

gives you stuff that may not move the game along any faster but we do move to

that next scene you may be better prepared for it or you may have more

information so basically those act as

resources for your you know for extra information that you can get or extra
