With the holidays season well and truly here RIGS is taking a mini break and will be back in the new year. Something I am thinking about adding to RIGS is character backgrounds. These will be stat-less, apart from vague terms like Very strong, or Not very smart. This info will come, in part from a new generator I have made for characters.
Which leads me neatly into the other bit of news. Backgrounds & Details Kit Version 2.0 has now finished its first draft and is currently at 45+ pages of content. What is in BDK2 you ask? If you have previous Ennead Games products you might recognise some of the entries. The previous BDK has been taken and expanded on in many new ways. This particular version is about those characters in a fantasy or medieval like setting. A sci-Fi version will be coming when possible, hopefully soon.
In the mean time, take a look at the current contents page, but be aware it is still a work in progress so may change. Some of the sections have further sub-sections that are not listed here. There are many d100 tables , plus an appendix of 500 phobia names as well.
