Just out of curiosoty: what does "Malifaux" stand for?
On some of the Wyrd shirts (including the one that I have) it says "The Art of Malifaux". I figured that it was a reference to the person who drew the concept art. Now, on the forums, we "Malifaux Matters"; the section that pertains to the upcoming Wyrd skirmish game. So I was just wondering what it meant and why was that name choosen?
I do know that "mal" means bad and "faux" means false (or fake), but I'm not sure how that would pertain to anything (unless it's meant as an inside joke of some kind).
Just curious, is all.

It means "mind your own business and stop asking so many questions!" :D
okok, just kidding, but I'll let Nathan field this one...because I only sort of have a grasp the details.We should be taught not to wait for inspiration to start a thing. Action always generates inspiration. Inspiration seldom generates action.

what nathan means is that it's one of those "we'd have to kill you if we told you" things...either that or he's just drunk :D

Maybe "Bad Things"? As in "Here dwell Bad Things?" Just talking out my backside but it sounds good anyway.
