Awakening

[issaferret]

Mage: The Awakening came out last week, I guess. Crim mentioned it to me, so I decided to take a quick look at the character sheet. Three things struck me on first glance: Gnosis(wisdom) is now the strength of magic stat, instead of Arete, Entropy is now split into Death and Fate, and Mages gots Mana Points. This last made me giggle, just from the lines that're going to wander up now that we don't have terms like 'Quintessence' to hide behind.

Further reviews will wait till I get the book in hand. This is the one I actually would have an interest in running, and playing, if any.

I have the book. Been in my hands for several days, but I only peaked.

So far, I am not sure what to think. Since I have been reading extensively about the technocracy lately, and they do not appear in it...(by name anyway) I have not let myself really look yet. I want to finish the remaining convention books before I erase all the info.

At minimum, we know its "balanced" with the new vampire and werewolf...
