Sorry to ask this here, how is the leather edition of spellbound going? I know it was getting really close to being done, thanks.
I signed them all. Last I heard they were getting ready to ship.
Thanks that is wonderful to hear, I’m so glad that they where able to make it through COVID.
Kind of sorry I missed the leather bound Grimnoir chronicles launch thing. Spellbound was the book I loaned to a coworker who “didn’t read much” and had him making cog jokes a week later.
On monsters we know exist, I wonder if we could look at how jaguars and cape buffalo are seen?
As I understand it, both of them are absolutely terrifying to deal with: jaguars apparently hunt crocodiles in the water, and cape buffalo are by far the most successful and lethal of the Big 5 game, but from a safe distance it is easy to discount them.
I sort of wonder if there could be a familiarity breeding contempt effect, where the monster is seen as not very threatening until the main characters discover that they recall do have no idea what they are dealing with?
