A few folks have asked whether I have any table rules for my homebrew Skyfell campaign. The topic of table rules comes up periodically on social media as well. So, I figured I would write up a quick post not only to address these questions but also as a source for my own players. So, here we go!

I planned for both just in case. Ultimately, they only got to one of them (and they didn’t actually finish that one). My players read this blog, so I won’t go
