Fate 2.0 Manual

Elizabeth you asked where I got the rulebook for FATE, its online and its free.  I have added the a link to it at the bottom of the blog in the link section.  The character sheet is also linked down there too.  The character sheet that I use is different from the one provided in the rulebook.  I created it a few years back using the original as a template, but I improved it (at least I think I did).

I am curious to see if you are able to use this as a teaching tool.  If not you will be spending most of your time on or near a college campus and there are always people hosting role-playing games on campuses. Most people who play indie RPGs (role playing games) are more familiar with Spirit of the Century (aka: Fate 3.0.  I like Fate 2.0 because its more of an open platform.  If you want to you can check out the publisher who makes these games.  Here is the link: http://www.evilhat.com/home/

They also publish Penny for my Thoughts (which is the round-about story game we did at our writing group).  I have never purchased a copy of Penny, I tried to adapt it from what I have read about it and heard about it from RPG podcasts, but you might find the Penny game more helpful as a teaching tool.  Its sort of a mix between an RPG and "Apples to Apples" (the party game).

Anyways, I had a blast playing our brief but epic game, you will be sorely missed.  Best of luck to you.  Send me Shevon's email address and I will see if she gets interested in playing with Bozena and I.
