I am grateful when the gods provide me a chance to step up, and one came unexpectedly this past month.
An organization dedicated to providing reading material and education to the incarcerated asked me if I would be willing to let them distribute Drakken to people in prisons in the U.S. Apparently the demand for D&D is pretty high, but it is too expensive to get it into prisons.
My Drakken, on the other hand, with just a few hours of formatting could meet their needs for a few cents a copy.
I believe in promoting the rights of the incarcerated very strongly. I believe that we should be taking measures to make sure that when people get a second chance, we give them every tool to make the best of it. And I believe strongly in promoting literacy. This was a no-brainer.
I told them that they could have it for free, (but they paid me anyway.)
So, by the time this post is up online, there will be 200 copies of Drakken heading for prisons around the United States. I hope it makes a few people's time served a little more peaceful.
