The Book of Hanz

A guide to running and playing the Fate roleplaying game, collected from essays on its narrative-focused approach. It explains fiction-first play, collaborative setting creation, pacing, conflicts, aspects, failure, and Fate’s flexible rules framework. The book also offers advice for introducing new players and understanding how story decisions, rather than detailed physical simulation, shape the game.
