New Feature for Ashes: Rise of the Phoenixborn

Song of Soaksend is the beginning of a new feature for Ashes: Rise of the Phoenixborn. Song of Soaksend adds custom dice to the already good matrix of characters, and this feature begins here! The dice, although including a random element for this deck, adds a bit of flavor to the older additions. This new feature makes Ashes even more exciting! I, for one, cannot wait for more of these 'second edition' characters! If you like Ashes: Rise of the Phoenixborn, my guess is that you will love this new feature to the game!

A Blend of Sci-Fi and Fantasy, and Space Opera, and Mythology

OK! Is it Science Fiction? Is it Fantasy? Is it Mythology? Maybe a combination of all of the above! On the good ship "unity" we have all three! And a good bit of humor and a good bit of raunchiness as well. This story hops along with the motley crew from one adventure to the next, reminding me a bit of the old 'serials'.With the cast of one human, and several minor (and even an appearance by major) gods and goddesses, they go from an extended look at the inhabitants of the main world on which the action takes place. There are many scenes where Rekar'ree attempts to stop them - even appearing to kill them once. But eventually, our heroes triumph and continue on to rid this sector of the galaxy of one more group of bad guys. However, it was not any of this which kept me reading, it was the humor. Humor is used to good effect in several places in this novel that left me wanting to see another. Highly Recommended!
