NEWS YOUR DM CAN USE: Kids in Roleplaying Games. “This isn’t going to be an article about how to interest children in roleplaying games (RPGs),” Moe Lane writes. “I’m not here to do product placement, and I don’t have any direct experience yet in what kind of RPGs my kids will like.  No, the purpose of this article is to talk about kids showing up in RPG campaigns, in the sense of why they should be there, if only in the background.  But maybe ‘only’ is not the right word to use, there.  So many interesting things happen in backgrounds, after all.”
