BLOOD DAWN

Blood Dawn: The Prophecy by Lawrence R. Sims and SSDC, Inc. [Review]

Beyond the description of those vital stats is where things got very cool. There are mutant races in the Waste.

But each of the six main groups Albino Giants, Druids, Ghouls, Healers, Humans, and Witches has details as to their appearance, philosophy and culture, tactics, opinions on the other races, special abilities, and more. Each race is also marked with a unique icon that reminds me of Aboriginal art symbols from Australia or even older cave drawings. This icon is prevalent on any page describing the race, making it easy to flip through and see which pages apply.

I love this approach for its simplicity and yet practicality — I wish I saw it used by other publishers where it made sense!

Back to the races for a minute — I love the variety. Sure, the Albino Giants are huge and the Druids are trying to protect folks working the land, but the Ghouls are awesome.

I simply am not. And sure the Ghouls are like goats and will seemingly eat anything, including corpses — drinking the blood, crunching the bones, and so on. These guys mean business!

Witches are cool as well, using naturally existing pockets of natural energy woods, lakes, glaciers and ley lines to cast spells and do magic. Even though they are more human than the Ghouls, many would just as soon burn them at the stake and be done with it, and yet having folks capable of casting spells and utilizing coven resources in times of need can be quite handy.

Although each race has its own benefits and drawbacks, you can also apply other mutations to your characters. Some are useful having an eye on the back of your skull for example , but others may grant you more points to spend on other things such as having a Cyclopean eye or having an offensive odor. In addition to the races, there are also complete Archetypes you can use to jump-start character development.

Each of these includes a description, a bit of insight, vital stats, skills, any magic available, and equipment carried. The drawings in this section are out of this world and offer a great glimpse into what such a character may in fact look like in the Waste.

In the Moebius Adventures RPG, I always used to encourage players to put tick marks beside the skills they used so they could raise them when they had enough experience points XP to do so. Blood Dawn goes one big step further for skills and spells, allowing players to put down tick marks each time they use a skill or spell and raise them independently of other characteristics.

Description

I love this idea as a mechanic simply because it offers players a way to throughout a campaign develop those skills and spells they use most often, making them even more useful as things progress. Last, the book includes a section for the Game Master on running Blood Dawn campaigns. Included are possible adventure scenarios and ways to keep things moving. But hopefully I hit a few of the high points.

Cool concepts, amazing artwork, great layout, and a system that seems pretty straightforward to pick up and run with quickly.

Blood of the Dawn: Claudia Salazar Jiménez, Elizabeth Bryer: www.farmersmarketmusic.com: Books

Modesta is mostly content with her lot; she's a devoted mother and wife who's happy with her family and guinea pigs. The land she farms isn't forgiving, but she can't bring herself to think of leaving. Her story is told in the second person, a smart narrative choice that asks the reader to identify with her: Perhaps the most compelling character is Marcela.

A teacher, she's become disillusioned that the poor children of Peru are being neglected by an uncaring government. She leaves her husband and child and joins the Shining Path, which changes her in short order: My skin had molded to its shape. My hands demanded the revolver I had been assigned to liberate the wounded from their last breath.

As if my fingers had lengthened and were injected into the temples of the wretched. The stories of the three women converge at the end, in a series of horrifically violent passages — they're as different from one another as can be, but they end up sharing the same experience.

It's a novel that never blinks, never lets the reader blink, until the terrifying last words. What stories will get away? The violence that permeated Peru in the s and s is unspeakable, which is exactly why it needs to be spoken.
