Today we present the fourth of Rob Schwalb’s Song of Ice and Fire Roleplaying design journals, wherein he reveals just what destiny has in store for your SIFRP character, or in actual fact, what one can achieve by either spending or burning Destiny Points in the game.
SIFRP: The Hand of Destiny
This Saturday is Free RPG Day, and we’re taking part in a big way with the Song of Ice and Fire Roleplaying Quickstart. This free book contains enough rules to get you started playing, pregenerated characters, and an adventure.
We think it’s always a great idea to check in with your local stores to see what’s new, and this Saturday you’ve got some extra incentive, since you can also go home with tons of cool free stuff from your favorite RPG publishers. Check it out!
We are pleased to announce the release of a little project we’ve been working on, namely Crooks!, Second Edition. This wildly popular villain sourcebook has been sold out for ages, but now it is finally updated for the second edition of Mutants & Masterminds, and is now available in PDF format for your purchase and download.
To celebrate Crooks!, Second Edition, and his own birthday, Steve Kenson has also posted an interview with Darren “Mancerbear” Bulmer, who did the second edition conversions of the nefarious n’er-do-wells in Crooks!

This morning we’ve posted a third design journal by Rob Schwalb, for A Song of Ice and Fire Roleplaying. Previously he has written about the game design process and the use of dice in the game. This installment details the abilities each character in the game uses to perform actions, from riding a horse to winning a throne.

We have posted a preview directly from the pages of Buccaneers of Freeport. “Among those pirates of whom legends are sung and drunken tavern-tales told, few are as infamous, or spoken of with such awe, as Scevola Hest, captain of the Black Contessa.” Read all about this spiteful spirit of a sea captain, and get a taste of Buccaneers of Freeport.
