Defy the Gods: playtest (Session 5 of 6) Chris Sellers runs for Mairi, Marc Majcher, and Maxwell Lander The adventurers returned to the city of Urud, intent on finding the people responsible for the death of Alara’s family. They visited the temple of Khifrit, the sun god, where Solon volunteered Zaal for a duel. This led the party to a secret room, where they heard disturbing news. Trail of Cthulhu: Fearful Symmetries (Session 7) Lowell Francis runs for Alun R., Paul Rivers, Sherri, and Will H Our magicians search the grounds of Grey's manor in the aftermath of the killings--they discover a letter from the enigmatic E which reveal key details and find a paining with a hidden score. Before they burn the mansion down, they use their sleuthing skills to put together who did this--and where the Grey's daughter in, leading them to a local boarding school with a sinister secret. Defy the Gods: Hearts Caught Between Glory and Doom (Session 3 of 4) Chris Sellers runs for Elle, Jonathan, Madelancholy, Matthew Doughty, and Rae Nedjadi Etienne receives a cryptic summons, and the adventurers go to meet it together. Circe engages in sorcerous healing, Estan and Kamil infiltrate a heavily fortified building, and Ampyx reaches at least halfway across the divide separating her from Etienne. Apocalypse Keys: Til We Have Faces (Session 6) Lowell Francis runs for Alun R., Anders, Paul Rivers, and Puckett After the debrief for the Barcelona mission, the team wrestles with their persona agendas. Suriel pushes his plans forward and Eggther discovers that that they may not be the last. But a new mission interrupts and they're sent to Island Zero to look into the abyss and find out the fate of a missing kaiju and its teen pilot. Apocalypse Keys: All the Bells on Earth (Session 6) Lowell Francis runs for Cat Rambo, Jesse A., José Feito, and Steven Watkins The team's debrief is a little more positive, or so it seems. They settle back into life at Chicago DIVISION HQ--from training to potlucks. But when Vane tries to return a book they discover a dangerous affliction affecting the base. Soon they are dispatched into the Parasitic Library to stop it before it can consume all of the organizations secrets...and more... Defy the Gods: playtest (Session 6 of 6) Chris Sellers runs for Mairi and Marc Majcher Alara and Solon travel to Alara's home village, which is overrun by scorpion-people. In an attempt to keep them from attacking Urud, things get a little out of hand. Sometimes, to prevent the world from plunging into eternal night, you have to go to the Underworld with a giant scorpion heart. Watch what happens when players figure out where the game is broken and just push on that spot. It's so good. You can see their character keeper here, in its final form. Mountain Home: From Fallen Halls (Session 7) Lowell Francis runs for Ethan Harvey, Patrick Knowles, Sherri, and Tyler Lominack The Founders look inward, dealing with tensions and sorrow within the community. With new rituals they draw the settlement together and into a era of a greater population and reach. New buildings and ceremonies mark this entrance into their third year, but a new issues rears its head in the form of a group of stranger dwarves and their settlement caravan. Star Wars Saturday Retrostar (Session 2) Rich Rogers runs for Anders, Greg G., Sabine V., and Steven Watkins The Disposable Humanitarians are sent to Canto Bight as roadies for the D'Roo Experience and run into a team member's dark past. MCU Sunday Masks (Session 5) Rich Rogers runs for Cody Eastlick, Dr. Jason Cox, and Patrick Knowles The Vanguards deal with a newly freed Agatha Harkness...in unexpected ways. Other Games The Between: Stars and Suns (Session 1) Madelancholy runs for Ben, Eirinar, and Jack As we approach the endgame for my first-ever series (for any game) I want to start posting the wonderful work my players have done. I hope you'll follow our journey - their character arcs as well as my baby Keeper steps - and enjoy!

#iHunt: *Terms and conditions apply (Session 1 of 12) Shane runs for Kae, Matthew Arcilla, Puckett, and Thomas Manuel We meet Nikko, Starr, Judy and Kraken, a group of mismatched monster-hunters desperately trying to make ends meet in San Jenaro. Things start to look up as they take out a murderous doll and move on to deal with an upscale bar's Frankenstein problem, while his older comrades offer Nikko some unsolicited relationship advice. Defy the Gods: playtest (Session 4 of 6) Chris Sellers runs for Mairi, Marc Majcher, and Maxwell Lander The characters explored an ancient Atlantean clockwork city carved from obsidian, searching for a violet jewel sacred to a community of lizard people. Alara the Sword was looking for raiders who killed her sibling, Solon the Sorcerer spent the entire time as a giant owl, and Zaal the Wolfling recoiled at the artificiality of the place. This is the fourth session in the first playtest series for Defy the Gods, but the first one of that series that I’ve uploaded (because I keep forgetting to record it). Still, it’s not a bad time to tune in—two players continue from earlier in the series, and we welcomed a new player. Trail of Cthulhu: Fearful Symmetries (Session 6) Lowell Francis runs for Alun R., Sherri, and Will H Our magicians finally have the chance to work through the grimoire & papers, with each beginning to test the limits of their abilities-- nearly leading to the destruction of one member as he reaches out to gain the guidance of an elder force. Information is gathered, lives are threatened, visions are had-- leading to a trip culminating in a very physical battle against an ancient creature of Britain. Apocalypse Keys: All the Bells on Earth (Session 5) Lowell Francis runs for Cat Rambo, Jesse A., José Feito, and Steven Watkins The return of one of the murder victims reveals to Sampson some of the forces coming to threaten the manananggal. Bezelbub works to control his hunger and Cetus tries to pull himself together after a poisonous vision. With their discoveries in hand the team tries to come to a conclusion and find a way to finally face the Harbinger. Defy the Gods: (playtest) Hearts Caught Between Glory and Doom (Session 2 of 4) Chris Sellers runs for Elle, Jonathan, Madelancholy, Matthew Doughty, and Rae Nedjadi We welcome Rae to the group and tie in his character to the others'. It's carnival time in the island city of Babilos, as the temple of Lithur prepares to take power. Everyone's celebrating, but the adventurers are broke! So they work out a gig to get some money, using Circe’s sorcerous illusions and Kamil's "dance of the seven lightnings." Then it's time to party: Estan carouses powerfully, Etienne hides their crushes behind an inebriated façade, and Kamil barks up the wrong trees. But Ampyx gets an apocalyptic vision from Lithur, down in the surf, leading to an intense conversation with Circe. Mountain Home: From Fallen Halls (Session 6) Lowell Francis runs for Ethan Harvey, Patrick Knowles, Sherri, and Tyler Lominack The year opens with the arrival of a travelling opera company, and the Founders take advantage of this to build ties with their neighbors. Two issues rear their heads: beastly attacks on the new Brewery and the vindictive death of one of the Guild Masters. To uncover the old rites of Karak Minor the group dives deep into forgotten chambers and unearths old secrets. MCU Sunday Masks (Session 4) Rich Rogers runs for Anders, Cody Eastlick, Dr. Jason Cox, and Patrick Knowles The Vanguards complete the trials of Hel! But was it worth it? Western Crime Copperhead County (Session 6 of 7) Donogh runs for David Adrian Randall, Ian, and Will H Good news-bad news kind of week! Bad news: white supremacists are squeezing the good folk of Seco Creek for payday loans and laundering their ill-gotten money in the process. Good news: the Harris Hellraisers get to punch nazis...

Trail of Cthulhu: Fearful Symmetries (Session 5) Lowell Francis runs for Alun R., Sherri, and Will H At Ashby Wake the investigators examine the magical documents they've been given and begin looking into the spectral black horse which seems to stalk Julia Brum and her fiancé, but is the threat supernatural, mundane, or something else?
