“White Wolf Publishing has built its reputation on taking roleplaying in radical new directions,” said Aaron Voss, Licensing Manager for White Wolf Publishing. “Lone Wolf has made a similar commitment to do the same for RPG software with Hero Lab, so it’s an obvious fit for us to be working together.”
