![]() ![]() The Book of the Fantastical deals with the fantastical elements of the Secret World. No one race is more powerful then the other and the rules mesh together well because they were all made together and not piecemeal over time. This allows people who only want to play Vampires to only need one book (The Book of the Unliving) to play with someone who wants to play Fey, who only needs the Book of the Fantastical. Each of the four foundation books provides everything you need to play while focusing on different aspects of the Secret World. Unlike with WOD books, all the races are meant to play in the same system with the same rules. In the Everlasting, you can play pretty much anything ( except for Demons) and everything meshes together. Steve Brown, the author of the Everlasting had an important role in creating the World of Darkness back when he worked over at White Wolf. The comparisons are not without merit though. Some people who have played it compare it to World of Darkness by White Wolf but this is a far cry from that setting in that it is much better IMHO. The Everlasting RPG is set in the modern world. Unlike the previous three books which really didn’t have the best of binding, the Book of the Fantastical has a new type of binding called Eurobinding that allows it to be bent all different kinds of ways without the back breaking! This is a book meant to be played with. Now those who have bought the previous three books will truly appreciate the Eurobinding that the new book has and from what I understand all future reprints will have. Minus a few typo problems, some errors here and there that he has assured me will be fixed in the next printing, The Book of the Fantastical is a very solid buy.įirst I want to talk about the binding. Having never done this sort of thing, and only having his love of the game to go on he managed to put out a very good first printing. To say I am greatly impressed by the book would be an understatement considering this is the first book put out by the new owner, Chip Dobbs, President of Visionary Entertainment. We waited, and waited and finally it takes a fan of the company buying said company to put out the fourth book! We all waited with baited breath for the release of the fourth and final foundation book. The first three stand alone foundation books, The Book of the Unliving, Book of the Light and Book of the Spirits currently have a nice spot on my book shelf. Take a lesson from your death and don’t let your enemies catch you the same way twice.With out a doubt the Everlasting RPG series captured the minds and imaginations of a lot of gamers when it came out in 1997.
