Iago,

Just wanted to drop in and say I got the opprotunity to play the game that C.W. ran. DRYH is a very cool game, and our group had a blast. We even added a major villain/nightmare to the Mad City from our own group. It was quite fun.

Oh my. I want details!

We had a reporter whose Madness Talent was to make what she wrote true. This was without the player having ever even seen the product. She had a bit too much fun with the Talent over the session and ultimately became a Nightmare. We decided she was the new ace reporter for the Paper Boys, much to the Wax King's irritation (as she had been writing counter-stories for him).

The thrust of the session was to find out what happened to a murdered friend/boyfriend. The session wrapped up with the PCs recovering a coin that contained many of his memories. The group traded their service to the Wax King for a wax duplicate of the guy, and ultimately they befriended a Needle Nose to have it stitch the memories into the wax duplicate - creating a new person who largely resembled the old.

It was fun

I found the one page rules summary chart to be *extremely* useful for running the game. Since it is ideal for a one shot or pickup game, it will often be the case that a GM doesn't quite remember all the rules. This chart quickly brings them up to speed.

(Moderators, apologies if this should go over into promo -- but since it was tied to this review, I thought it might be appropriate.)
