I don’t think fluff should be considered unnecessary. A teddy-bear without fluff is just an empty bag. In a game, the fluff fills out the world, giving it form. It’s needed by both rules heavy and rules lite games. My term for rules lite games is usually “cinematic”. In these game, the story and the narrative take precedence over number crunching or rules lawyering, just as movies often ignore what is “real” in favor of what is “cool”.

Ten Candles is an amazing game, but it is a one-shot, not for campaigns. Everyone dies at the end of the game. Period. It is the journey toward that inevitable end when everything goes dark that makes it so good.

This kind of thinking is wasteful. Every d20 has a finite lifespan. It was created, and it will, at some time in the future be destroyed, as all things are. That means it has a finite number of rolls in its lifetime, with an equal distribution of all possible outcomes. When you “practice roll” and get a nat 20, you have wasted one of the limited number of nat 20s that die has in it. Think of the 20s. Don’t practice roll.

Robert Reynolds aka The Sentry. He’s has Superman power levels (A Million Exploding Suns!). Easily one of the most powerful characters in the entirety of Marvel. He’s also mentally unstable and has an alter ego called the Void who performs a horrific action for every good action Sentry performs. Don’t know how much of his story is going to be pulled into the MCU, but I am excited by the possibilities.
