Playing Character Background #2: Jane, the Brave Student

Hello readers!

Jane was a brilliant undergraduate that have been locked up in a jail because of a bank's theft. While she was in the jail, she had been freed by a werewolf that was chasing her since before the theft. Once she was free, she had been contacted from an unknown person who said her to meet other people in a monastery and there started her adventure that would brought the entire party to fight against the Four Horseman and Lucifer.

Jane was my first Playing Character, thought at school, during French class, and created two days later, with my actually boyfriend the night of my Role Playing Game's first meeting. The RPG was World of Darkness. The common setting is the contemporary era, even if Game Masters can move also in the future (something like cyberpunk style). The precise setting of that campaign was inspired by the fiction "Supernatural": obscure mysteries and a lot of occult.

At the end of the adventure she had to face Pestilence, one of the Four Horseman and it was a fantastic fighting in a disco full of skeletons and zombies.

Unfortunately I haven't got any drowing of this PC, but I hope you liked this description. Leave comments below: do you know the RPG World of Darkness? If you do, do you like it?

Have a nice week!

Game Review: Cards against Humanity

Hello friends!
Cards against humanity is a cruel board game that pull out the worst from people. And is for this reason that I love it.

It's a card game, with two kind of cards: black cards and white cards. Black cards have sentences wrote on them with missing words spaces that can be filled up with words wrote in white cards. The objective of the game is create sentences the most nice or nonsense you're able. And is because of the nonsense that people could be very bastard. On white cards are written words or little sentences like: Justin Bieber, The Rhapsody, Hope, The heart of a child, Adolf Hitler, Being fabulous...and so on (also something a bit vulgar, that I would not write in my blog respecting readers could be more emotionals). On black cards there are small sentences like: "My love, I'm here for...", "I got 99 problems but...ain't one", "...: kid-tested, mother-approved" and other and you have to combine white cards with black cards.

You can find this game for free in the net simply searching the name of the game "Cards against humanity". I played this game in December the 31st with other 6 friends and my boyfriend and it was really funny. More you are and more it is funny!

Does it inspires you? Have you ever played this game? What do you think about? Feel free to leave comments in the space below!
See you soon!

Film Review: Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children

Hello readers!
Some weeks ago my sister and I went to the cinema watching the new film Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children made by Tim Burton.

The protagonist of the film is a young teenager, Jake, grew up with the strange tales of his old grandfather, Abe. While Abe was tragically dying saied his grandson to go to "the Cairnholm loop of September 3, 1943" and that the "falcon" would have told him everything. Jake decides to go to the current Cairnholm looking for what his grandfather told him. There he finds the loop Abe told him and finds also the children of the orphanage where his grandfather lived for some years. In the orphanage, Jake meets Miss Alma Peregrine, the headmaster of the place, and understand that the she is the "falcon". Miss Peregrine explanes him that he is the only one able to see the Hollows, monsters that feed themselves with peculiar children's eyes.

The film is inspired by the book of the same name that I have read two or three years ago. I found the film accurate to the book and I was really happy of this. It could seems a film also for children, but I think it isn't. There are lots of scenes that a child could not see. After all, we are talking about Tim Burton!
I really liked the film, something strange made by one of the masters of strangeness even if there is a vibe similar to "Alice in Wonderland" made by the same productor.

Have a nice weekend!
Love

Anime Review: Sakamoto Desu Ga?

Hello readers!
Today is the moment for the anime Sakamoto desu ga by Deen studio and inspired by the manga with the same name created by Nami Sano.

Sakamoto is a first year student in a highschool. He is very popular and he is believed cool from everyone. Be it halp others, defend the weaks from bullies or escape the resenting schoolmates' traps, Sakamoto is always able to solve problems with absolute class and grace.

The entire anime is very funny. It is composed by only one series, but each episode often consists of 2 little adventures. I can't say anything different from "cool, cooler, coolest!" (I quoted the anime) and really brilliant!

You should really watch it and if you have yet watched leave comments below!
Have a nice week!
