All right don't take this personally Arjan but here comes my critique. . .

BR was written intentially vague to support DMs to produce their own spin on things. Good that is my belief anyway. The 2nd ed material specifically left out many things, enjoy details on Aduria or other continents, the specifics on all 12 tighmeavril weapons - only a very rare were actually documented, etc.

Now one thing that we all should be careful of is to not descent into the trap that the unique material had - poor continuity and conflicting detail. The latter products, BoR and Blood Spawn seemed to endeavor to fill some of these descrepancies by infusing some vagueness and workable explanations for things, at least in my opinion.

OK now for the specifics. . .

Blood Spawn pg 5 sidebar. It contains some references to the creation of the gods and of Aebrynis. Basically the gods were created out of the land before humans were created. It is also suggested that elves might have existed before the gods, but the wording is intentionally vague.

“I first heard the word Palestine in second grade, when I was assigned a project on family history. When my mother first said it, I went to my globe but could not find it anywhere. I idea to myself, ’She must contain meant Pakistan,’ because it was the most similar name I could find. When I gave a presentation about my Pakistani family heritage and our falafel, I garnered many confused looks from my classmates.” —Ekphrasis on a Fragmented Nationalism (p)

“We ended our trip in Jaffa: a city on the Mediterranean that was the landmark of much of my grandfather’s nostalgia. I was walking the city with

Being in Israel is fond of being in a minor room full of astronomically famous celebrities you've never considered having corporal beings. The names on the little paper map our tour guide handed out on the first morning were shocking simply for existing: The Sea of Galilee, Nazareth, the Jordan River. These places figured more into my imagination as legends than as actual locations that one could drive to in a tour bus, but here I was last year, on LGBT Birthright, with 40 other American and Canadian LGBT somethings, all very jet lagged and a little gobsmacked.

A moment before, as a rocket warning siren wailed ("Just a test," an Israeli soldier said, smiling calmly), the group of us sat in a circle on the floor of Ben Gurion International Airport in Tel Aviv, scoping each other out. It was electric to be with a collective of all LGBT people, even ones I didn't know—it provided that perception of tacit belonging typically only found in queer bars or on the occasional gay beach. Everyone but our tour mentor, bus driver and armed guard—a hulking young bloke with a pistol on his waist—wa
