From the introduction: The Blackest Hack (TBestH) is a traditional tabletop roleplaying game, played with paper, pencils and dice - it uses that Original 1970s Fantasy Roleplaying Game and that famous dark colored hack as a bases; however, it adds and takes away elements to make it a distinct streamlined flavor of the original roleplaying game... and to make it evil. Here the Gamemaster (GM) is called the Blackmaster (BM), and his word is the law.
