Mike Cule's ideas for a "soul shortage":

Much as I don't buy the idea the Bat is responsible, this is dead cool! In fact, the Bat theory itself could be a very big, er red herring (so to speak).
To find the *real reason* for the soul shortage the investigative mandarins will have to go further west - to the Kingdom of War!
Cheers,
MOB PS I've just got a hold of the Baron Munchausen roleplaying/storytelling game (thanks Kevin), which Senator Mike had a hand in. What a hoot! As a game which postively encourages all players to consume copious quantities of alcohol while recounting extraordinary adventures in the style of the good baron (and the winner has to buy everyone a round), I must say I can't wait to play this at the next Convulsion. Buy this game!
