When the big ones go to sleep or leave fo the day, there may not seem to be anyone around to guard the house. But nothing could be further from the truth. Those houses lucky enough to have a couple of ferrets have a specialised strike force ready to take on anything that might come their way.
Tooth and Claw is a storytelling game about tiny, ingenious, roguish heroes, who may not always get along, but they know when to band together against the worst things that might be heading their way.
Befitting tiny heroes, this is a tiny game designed in Pocketmod format. 8 pages to describe character generation, action resolution, storytelling strategies and everthing an experienced player would need to tell the tales in the shadows and just beyond the corner of the eye.
Why Ferrets?
Ferrets are often maligned creatures, considered vicious and smelly rodents, nowhere near as popular as cats and dogs (though arguably domesticated just as long). In many parts of the world they are illegal, in other parts they are mutilated through the removal of scent glands. But while they are passionate and emotional, ferrets are incredibly smart and social animals, able to be trained and capable of companionship.
The authors, Michael and Leah Wenman, are ferret rescuers for the NSW Ferret Welfare Society. A non profit welfare group who look after ferrets wh have seen trauma, injury and abuse at the hands of those who are deliberate or simply neglectful. Half of all the profits from this game wll be passed on directly to the welfare society.
So your dollar spent on this gaming product will not only provide a few hours of entertainment, but will contribute to the health of some great creatures who just need agood home.
