What is Intwischa?

Here at intwischa.com, we strive to celebrate the finer attributes of pencil-and-paper roleplaying games. While the barbarian or rogue might scoff at these characteristics as mere dump stats, we wholly embrace them, acknowledging that our hobby is an erudite, enlightened, and inherently social endeavor.

Equipped with smoking jackets, snifters of brandy, and a swelling sense of self-importance, we have gathered around a table of fine mahogany to examine these games we play. We strive to help ourselves and our readers sufficiently extract every nugget of enjoyment this pastime has to offer.
