The Arcanum (the Kingkiller Chronicles)

so i was just looking and i was surprised to find that there was no Kingkiller page. so here we are. calling all kingkiller fans. Whether you are an Edema Ruh, an Adem, an Amyr or a Chandrian all are wanted.

Kvothe is doing his test in Atem where he has to get through the sword tree 

and it's very awesome. I also noticed that Tak is a real board game. I kind of want to buy it because it seems cool. Has anyone here played it?
