Here’s a few upcoming ones that I’m considering joining. They all start on May 1st. FIST: JAM OPS VI This jam is for the FIST RPG, which is normally about mercenaries dealing with paranormal events. However, the theme of this jam is “No Funny Business”, by which they mean that they’re asking you to not use any supernatural or sci-fi…
