After the Strange and Norrell affair, and the coincident return of magic to England

1. Every time the York Society convenes to study Vinculus, he insists on discomfiting them all by disrobing in a decidedly ... sultry manner, involving lots of eye contact and visible tongue movement.

2. Having a mirror in your house is the height of risque recklessness. Lord Byron has one in every room, and five in the bedroom. It is not considered respectable for your house or your carriage to have clean windows. On mornings after rain, even the naturally antisocial look passers-by in the eye in greeting, rather than risk glimpsing a reflection in a puddle.

3. Bell Strange and Emma Wintertowne, the former Lady Pole, roam the continent investigating writings and sightings concerning Faerie. Others were imprisoned in Lost Hope; other faeries are surely abroad in England, making other bargains; and of course there’s Jonathan. Strange and Wintertowne have no intention of ever again being taken unawares. When eventually their quest takes them back to England, they’ll be prepared.

4. The Black King of Lost Hope observes their escapades through fountains and rain, looking forward to the day they find their way back to him; though he knows it will be, in the main, to ask service of him again. He hasn’t yet decided what his answer will be.

5. Many an adventurer has entered the house of Gilbert Norrell seeking the truth about that day. Many are still missing. Those who return, return to some degree mad. It seems that, absent Mr Norrell’s tending, the labyrinth around the library is growing wild. Its twists and turns are said to echo with the flutter of ravens’ wings.

6. Slowly, subtly, John Childermass cedes his role as ambassador-convenor of England’s magical societies to Segundus and Honeyfoot, and returns to the shadows. Attempt to abuse English magic - to use it to harm, cheat or control others - to bring it, in other words, into disrepute once again - and you are wont to discover a scarred man in the nearest dark corner, glowering. Show contrition and he will simply direct you to your local society, where you may learn honour from your betters. Attack him, and he’ll do you the honour of teaching you a little lesson himself.

galactic 2e supplement bundle for star wars day!

itch.io
galactic 2e supplement bundle for star wars day!: 23 items for $25.00

I have a playbook in this bundle!

galactic is the best star wars rpg - it's diceless, gmless, and has been accurately described as 'what if star wars cared about the characters as much as we do'. We played it on @merelyroleplayers:

My playbook, the Researcher, is inspired by Doctor Aphra from the Darth Vader and Doctor Aphra comics; Eno Cordova from the Fallen Order game; and Lyntel'luroon, Kat's character from Star Wars Campaign.

Get that plus 22 other brilliant galactic supplements - playbooks, rules expansions and more - until the end of May!
