Revisiting Origins: Aedyn Karwyn

Posted on November 21, 2023 by Charles Yallowitz

Aedyn began like Fritz and Nimby as another player’s character in the game.  There was a big difference between him and them.  The guy playing Aedyn was more into the mechanics of the game than the character.  So, Aedyn wasn’t … Continue reading →
