March 1, 2022 by M. J. Young, Chaplain Leave a Comment

This is Faith in Play #52:  Pirates, for March 2022. We have yet another archetype character this month.  I picked pirates for the category name because there is something romantic about them in the modern mind, but this broadly covers brigands, bandits, and similar scoundrels.  When I put the question to my panel of experts, … [Read more…]
