This week we finish our 3 part episode on Troublesome Characters, part of our "Saying Yes" series. This week Bruce has Scratch, an urban tribal character who, while intensely communicative, is almost impossible to easily understand. How to integrate someone who defys normal social conventions and appearances? Listen and comment.

We continue with our xbox matchmaking. No seriously we are talking again about characters that are worth playing but don't integrate well with other characters. This week Robert (Trav) brings us a military jock who just can't stand scientists and brainy types - a tough mix with Fringeworthy adventurers and other games with strong tech aspects.

This week start our journey with some hard to handle characters. Troublesome characters are those who don't fit well into a party but have something that makes them worth playing. We start off with John's character: the friendly sociopath. Not to be topped, Peter follows with a cannibal. That right. Sweet dreams everyone.

More questions from our fans to answer. We start off with a Fringeworthy question about the Blizniz, the elephantine race with the prehensile trunk. The amount of discussion about this race has been amazing, but they are a very different race. I love all the possibilities that each GM can try since there isn't a lot of canon about this race.

This week we finish our great interview with Dr. Nik Palmer who has written two great modules, Caravan and Seven Deadly Sins, great for Fringeworthy and Bureau 13 respectively. We hope you enjoyed this episode and will buy Dr Nik's adventures for your campaigns. We look forward to everyone showing up at Gencon to play in our game sessions. Even if all of them are sold out, please show up with generic tickets. We will try to add you. Please stop by the Podcaster Meet and Greet and buy Trav a drink. He will be there with the stunning Amber Roe on his arm. He'll need one. Please leave us a review on I-tunes. Especially a good one. That really increases the exposure of this podcast. If you have any suggestions for the podcast or any topics you want covered, please leave a comment here or on any of our Facebook groups.

This week we start our interview with Dr Nik Palmer, a long time RPG adventure writer who has just released 2 great products on Drive Thru RPG: Mesopotamia and The Seven Deadly Sins Mesopotamia is set in 3000 years BC in our historical past, but with all the mythology, magic, and mayhem intact. Fringworthy fans know that many Fringworthy worlds go to times in the past. This adventure path is a great fit for your Fringworthy Campaign. The Seven Deadly Sins is an adventure path set in modern day so it is a great fit for Bureau 13 or your favorite modern supernatural RPG. It is mature restricted on Drive Thru RPG so make sure your update your profile to show mature content or you won't be able to purchase it. This is the beginning of our summer schedule so our episodes will be about 30 minutes long until after Dragon Con, where we return to our regular length. Feel free to comment on this on Facebook.

This week we finish our discussion of the Golden Horde, The Fringeworthy Alternate World where the dominant culture is descended from Gengis Khan, and what fun it would be to play one of the horde in your campaign.

This week we explore putting a member of a member of the Mongol Empire in your exploring party for Fringeworthy. As one of the alternate earths in Fringeworthy goes to where the golden horde conquered the world, this is very possible. We explore the beginnings of such a culture and how that culture would clash with that of a 21st century viewpoint. Also we want to remind everyone to sign up for our game sessions at Gencon Indy 2012. We are having a huge presence this year with lots of slots, but they go fast so be ready to register on May 20th. Information can be found at the Gencon Indy site at https://registration.gencon.com go to find events. Search under keyword Fringeworthy, Bureau 13, or Hardwired Hinterland
