				The island itself is fairly bare, filled with grass and rocks (see wiki page pics).&nbsp; But it does include a beach covered in mostly black sand.&nbsp; And a Quidditch pitch near the castle.

				One of the members is the gamemaster who acts as a combination editor and refereee. she is the cheif storyteller but the story she tells must include the possibility of all players to effect the outcome or outcomes. She uses the rules to help the others create characters, sets the scene, controls minor characters and sometimes the antagonist. She then runs the calculation and supervises the rolling of the dice. In many cases she then interpets the results.<br>She keeps a steady stream of problems and puzzle coming in so that all the players can join in.<br>A bad gamemaster leaves some players behind for some reason though often that is unavoidable."

				"Yes it could! But that it is part of the charm if younknow what I mean? Nowboth the GM and players have to negociate unknown territory." said Jessica looking excited.<br>"But lets take a step a back. The dice are used for the most part in rather narrow circumstances and they are wieghted on the basis of know strengths of the characters. SOmetime uou will have series of startling outcomes where a weaker side or character wins compleatly but more often the weaker side will exact a disproportionate cost on the stronger. In a long campaign that can make a difference."<br>"It's game and a story. Both sides could win thoughusually it's just one side tyrying to overcome obstacles angather prizes that determines victory."<br>In amny cases the players dodn't care. They throw aside the characters they used and invent new ones. Though most player will keep using a favorite character as amny times as they can."

				"Well this one genre of these games that I have not played yet but want to. I ran into the genre in an online comic called call 'Girl Genius' and looked over some Science Fiction novels based on the idea I was hooked and when I discovered there were game in it I began exploring.<br>Most of them are set in the same as your game but they have alternate historys.<br>They are steakpunk becuase of that setting and what they deal with is the fusion of magic and mechanics. Special people-called sparks in girl genius- can infuse magic into machines making them better and with somewhat magical properties."

				In her getting carried away about playing a role playing game with Vincent she failed to notice the large canine near them.<br>"That is not a dog." said Jessica.

				Jessica raised her right eyebrow in&nbsp; amgesture that was a mixure of amusement and puzzlement. There was something here he was not saying.<br>"Well I like you as well Vincent. I think we syncronize with other very wekk . In fact we might syncopate as well. What is your music back ground."<br>She didn't ignore the wolf but since it was a 'dumb' (as in speechless) animal she didn't waste any words with it. Instead she leaned forward a bit holding out a hand for inspection (And if it 'passed' to pet Jaxon) by the wolf.

				"No, I suppose that was very unclear. Do you play or sing music? I play the harmonica and an accordion. I brought my hermonica- its in my trunk-&nbsp; but had to leave the accordion home becuase of wieght restrictions."<br>Jessica gave Vincent one of those 'why would I want to?" looks. She seemed far more interested in petting the back of the neck and around the ears. <br>It wasn't that Jessica was against canines but she had limited experiance with them. She and all her family were people who kept and loved cats.<br>Few cats -only the most submissive- would allow anything near their belly without a hissy fit. It was the feline equivelent of licking someones boots.<br>Yowl is going togive me the biz over this she thought with a smile.

She leaped straight at the closest Bully landing on his face with claws implanted on the boys cheeks and promptly took a bite out of his nose.<br>"Damn" muttered Jessica to vincent. "I had hoped we could intimidate into backing off. Cover me if the other one draws."<br>"Come on Jaxon lets start the rumble.<br>She ran to the bully and kicked him first in the shin and and then on a knee cap.&nbsp; He tried to kick back but he couldn't see becuase of yowls firm hold ontoto his face.<br>He was using his hands to hit the cat and pull him off.<br>The other bully looked stupefied. Victims didn't fight back. Then anger invaded his face.<br>How dare they! <br>He went for his wand.
