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).

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?
