  • BLADES Notes #61 – Poltergeist, the Painter

    June 10, 2193 to September 10, 2193
    The BLADES try to figure out what to do about the Insane Dwarf Posse and bail out to letting Arthur get possessed. He ages but rises to the challenge of reproducing a lifetime’s masterwork of paintings from an Ancient Artist.
    I’m still working on this one, but I’ve polished before the part before Arthur starts aging. I’ll have to see what I can do over the next few days to clean it up and see if there is a way to present my lead in table better. ~ Jay
