Sam's smile faltered for a moment, but she managed to keep a tight grip on her enthusiasm. "Called away? It's not because of that phone call I got, is it? Am I in danger?"

Not awkwa...

I've had a lot of requests here and on places like the official Choice of Games Reddit asking for descriptions of my characters for things like fan art or even just to get a good idea of them while reading.

Parliament of Knives: 'What Stares Back' fan art spotlight

I saw this piece on Reddit a little while back and absolutely loved it. It depicts the artist's main character and their Malkavian hallucinatory companion.

My favourite part of this piece is the attention to detail--if you've played the Malkavian portion of the 'What Stares Back' DLC, you'll know it well. The shadowy bars, the halo of light, darkness gradually descending... I just love i...
