[UA] Getting into the Madness

[Saul]

I doubt a character generator would be all that useful. characters pnly have
4 stats and a handful of skills, which can be pretty much anything you want.
Most of character creation in the background, obsession and so on.

Here's an acronym no-one has mentioned yet: TNI (The New Inquisition). There
aren't that many, really.

I don't have any use for GM screens myself, because we don't generally play
sitting around a table, but more sprawled around the room. There's actually
very little info that would be useful to have on a screen-- once you learn
the basic mechanics, the only thing you'll need to look up are specific
spells/rituals/channels or a few of the more obscure combat rules (of which
there aren't many). So yeah, just use a screen from another game if you need
one.
