The Knife at Your Back

KTDARPG is an interesting game.

Part of the "interesting" is finding out who you can trust. It's a slow process. Involves making mistakes along the way. You just hope they're the mistakes & missteps that you--and your character(s)-- can afford.

Who do you believe in?

Who do you trust to back your play?

How do you decide?

Lots of ways, but the easiest is also the most direct. Put it out there 'n see what happens. You find a make-or-break moment (even better, create one specifically for the purpose), and you test the waters.

There's a knife at your back. See who comes through for you.

Want it even more interesting?

As a good friend told me ... sometimes the knife at your back is there to protect you.

All knives are not in the hands of friends, though. The real trick is being able to tell the difference.
