I am curious: is anyone using ruin and fear mechanics from Transylvanian Adventures?

btw, that was nice book. i kinda disliked classes and loved almost everything else. whatever happened to the second book?

and while we are at it there is also this that i think i like in the TA

Characters receive a post-combat bump in hit
points. Immediately after a scene or encounter,
a character recovers 1d4-1 hit points. A
character’s hit points cannot recover beyond
the character’s maximum hit point score.

i really like this rule. it somehow enforces the feel that HPs are not necessarily "real" damage.

It's been almost ten years on and off.

The summation/effort is in a series of posts here
