Does anyone have experience with players running multiple characters in Blades? I have a player who’s lurk has been hit with level 2 harm and is pretty full up on stress. He is wanting to sideline his Lurk for a few sessions and run a second character in the mean time, My initial response is to let him and use the Lost entry from overindulging of vice as a guide. My concern is that players may wind up circumventing the recovery downtime actions and just run a stable of characters i I set that precedent.

Any thoughts?

How do your scoundrels carve up the map?

How do your scoundrels carve up the map? I’m running a crew of Shadows who make their home in Six Towers, but have hunting grounds in The Docks, when they start acquiring claims should they be expanding out of their hunting grounds or lair? either? Do you play it that their holdings can be spread out across Duskvol? I can’t really picture a hagfish farm in either The Docks or Six Towers.

I suspect it’s probably a matter of personal taste but I’m curious what others are doing.

Blades in the Dark has reached the land of the midnight sun!(Yellowknife NT) Thought I would show off the end papers rather then the awesome cover. This is a quality book! Postal packaging was great also, I’m always happy with service from Starlit.

Had a well received first session, the crew was a lurk and a hound who got wind from Mylera that a potential fence contact was being held captive in Skurloc manor. The job went well and they made good use of flashbacks to fill in their plan as they went. These rules are really great. I’m hopeful that automatons will make it into the full rules as they had a big showdown with one during the score.

I have a question about effect.

I have a question about effect. The rules say that extreme effect should be uncommon, is it possible to scale beyond even extreme given enough positive factors or is that the “ceiling” of effect?

It seems that given the correct advances some playbooks can easily gain advantages in all factors,(Cutter is a good example)making it fairly easy to stack even beyond Extreme. Is that intended?

Just got to the party thanks to the early access PDF, can’t wait to dive in and explore the game. Love what I’m seeing so far!

As a poor sap who missed the kick starter, is there any word on when the PDF will be available for sale?
