STYLE: The intro is written in a way the evokes images of the time period...and adds some mystery and a sense that strange things are happening. I enjoyed reading many of the new traits and found myself wanting to travel on the rail system...maybe with the haunted trait.
Would also love to see some imagery or art for this piece.
SUBSTANCE: The writing is clear and concise. The traits are all great...there are a wide range of abilities that would be cool in play. They faithfully follow the spirit of FIST in that many of them come with a cost. The Littlest Hobo, for example; just attempting to communicate would be a challenge!
I'd be interested in seeing what kinds of creatures or characters I might meet in such a setting.
