Tonight we’ve got a topic from the fine folk at the Misdirected Mark Gaming Podcast, an excellent RPG round table podcast that offers a wide range of advice for people running and playing games.

Back on episode 358 of Misdirected Mark the crew talked about Game Generated RPG Artifacts, a.k.a. physical things that are created through game play. Due to some debate that came up in the chatroom, they challenged us to cover this topic ourselves and that’s what we are doing today.
