Building off of the epic metadata mess left over the previous pages – another yay point for the second edition – for me, anyway – is that a lot more character comes across with the characters. I’m still pulling bits of it out of my ass as I go – I had no idea Raven had done a tour on the Cheops until a week or so ago, for example. Blackwater always had students (never ever mentioned), but now we all know for a fact that at least one of them is going to be fun to draw.
