#138 – Effective Character Backstories

Hey look at us, we are 138! Now that that is stuck in your head, in this episode we discuss the development of good character backstories in RPGs (and especially in Palladium). There are some dos and don'ts to go over, so give us a listen and then join our Discord to share your own takes on the topic of story-building! Drop us a line! You can follow us (sporadically) on Facebook, and we'd love to see you on our Discord Channel too. And let us know your thoughts by leaving a review on iTunes!
