Thanks "genuinely useful toolkit" means a lot! In Character Serial, the flashback is a quick roll free scene burn your Mark for an auto win, it's gone for good and next session opens by showing the cost before the table names your new Mark together. Quick q new Mark chosen by the table, or the player alone?
Oh, I like that! gives players room to come up with something on their own but still lets the table shape it together. btw, I've honestly had a lot of fun chatting with u about your games haha <3 would u be okay with moving our little game dev talks over to discord or somewhere else? totally fine if you'd rather keep chatting here tho!
