Sandersonian Institute of Cosmere Studies #168: The Cosmere RPG with Katie Payne - "You can't spell 'plot device' without 'plot die!'"

The Sandersonian Institute of Cosmere Studies

Somehow, Brandon Sanderson has done it AGAIN! He surprised us all once more with his latest (and currently running) Kickstarter campaign for the upcoming Stormlight... no... COSMERE tabletop role-playing game!

That's right, what we thought was just an RPG based around The Stormlight Archive is actually a much larger RPG for the entire Cosmere! And we're thrilled to have Katie Payne, art director for the project, back on the podcast to chat with us all about it!
