This is a pretty good addition to the BESM game. It's a good fantasy mini-campaign, and actually gives some racial templates that I think should have been included in Fantasy Bestiary (particularly the nekojin, interdimensional exiled school girl/boy, and various half-breeds), as well as some that were repeated. It also gives general pointers on how to run the game (and how to keep the game in balance). I also love the drawings in the book. The main problem I have with this book is that while it reccomends to start the characters at 25 points (which may cause some players to complain), it also isn't enough points to purchase both racial and occupational templates for some characters; those who want to play elf mages may be disappointed (or end up having to take a lot of defects at character creation).
