Characters
The Fish in the Pot Characters zine was successfully funded in February 2020 as part of Kickstarter's Zine Quest 2.  Inside you will find 101 short descriptions of characters that will come to life at your table.  The 101 character descriptions are complete with names, pronouns, and just enough info to get you ready to role play in a flash!  Also, the inside covers each feature a d100 rollable table to help further randomize your NPC with dark secrets and odd side quests! The character descriptions were written by Geoffrey Cullop and Viditya Voleti. Amazing art was provided for the project by melonberri and David North. Thank you to Kazumi Chin for consulting on the project.
