A great resource for people who want a handful of colourful NPCs to insert into their campaign, and as inspiration for your own. It really gives a clear idea on how to put characters together for people learning the system, both players and GMs. A handful of new stuff is thrown in right at the end and it's all pretty good- though the new Duelling Style really does need to be expanded on more (but is serviceable as it is). The stuff allowing you to blur the line between Duelists and non-Duelists is very very useful, as well as the discount for existing Duelists to pick up extra styles. The art is great and encompasses a wide variety of styles (which means some pictures may not be to your taste, but each picture has had at least one person in my gaming group say they liked it). All in all a very good resource for many, but not every group will get much use out of it.
