​Greetings, and welcome to the weekly Gauntlet Calendar video roundup! Enjoy these recordings of online games organized through Gauntlet Calendar and the Gauntlet RPG Community.

If you'd like to play or watch more games like these, check out the links and information at the bottom of the post.

Gauntlet Calendar

Eotenweard: Cweningas (Session 1 of 2)
Alun R. runs for Blake Ryan, Darin Rebertus, Joe F, and Paul Rivers
We meet Ethwin 'Two Trees', the Sword of God, who discovers that a skinchanger can regenerate, so just has to be stabbed more often; Garwyn the Fae Changeling with the seeming of a common hunter who is mistaken for a treacherous intruder and then thrown across a Lady's hall; Wystan the Commoner who sends his voice into the mind of a monster only to find it just attracted its attention; and Geldhere, the Pagan Mystic, who summoned the power of the Old Gods...and then felt he deserved a rest...with the Lady of Cweningas, no less.

AKA: Inside Man (Session 2 of 2)
Donogh runs for Chris R., David Miessler-Kubanek, and Mark
Kobayashi, the Boss' old protégé has turned up in Milan and the Agent races to intercept, to turn him against The Agency. But things careen off course, and explosive revelations change things forever!

Wanderhome: Bright Young Things (Session 1)
David Morrison facilitates for Donogh, José Feito, and Nathan Harrison
We introduce the game, and meet our starting cast of characters. Barnaby the Caretaker, a young otter with a collection of small gods. Gus the Peddler, a donkey merchant traveling the land with his pack beetle Atlas. And Tal the Veteran, a laconic wolf carrying a blade they have sworn not to draw. The trio arrive at the town of Floatsham - a bustling port town watched over by a haunted lighthouse...

Wanderhome: Bright Young Things (Session 2)
David Morrison facilitates for Donogh and José Feito
Barnaby and Tal investigate the haunted lighthouse, and meet the spectral salamander responsible for keeping the ghostly light burning. At breakfast, they meet Quoth the Poet, a scatterbrained rook. They charter Captain Bertha to take them on the next leg of their journey away from Floatsham, but not before going for a swim in the lagoon...

Wanderhome: Bright Young Things (Session 3)
David Morrison facilitates for Donogh, José Feito, and Nathan Harrison
Barnaby, Gus, Tal, and Quoth come to the end of their voyage in a vast mangrove swamp. At nearby Castle Flickerstone, the Sun Parade is about to begin, heralding the arrival of the season of Bright. Barnaby befriends a young raccoon and together they help decorate the castle. Gus helps an alligator girl called Sally find her heart's desire. Tal meets an antiquarian, and assists Gus' wheeling and dealing. And Quoth discovers secrets both ancient and personal in the castle undercroft.

Vow of the Knight-Aspirants: To Seek the Tower Perilous (Session 3 of 4)
Alexi S. runs for Chris Newton, Danielle B., and David Miessler-Kubanek
The questing squires bargain for a diadem of great power in the midst of a bandit camp. Gilly proves her prophetic insight to the Bandit King. Caedun makes big promises and grapples with his family's legacy of heresy. And Kae attempts to befriend everyone, witches and bandits alike. All this, and a truly special cow—along with a glimpse of the Tower Perilous itself!

Eotenweard: Cweningas (Session 2 of 2)
Alun R. runs for Blake Ryan, Darin Rebertus, Joe F, and Paul Rivers
As Ethwin the Sword of God investigates the mysterious roman ruin, Garwyn the Changeling and Wystan the Commoner are ambushed by the skinchanger. Meanwhile, Geldhere the Pagan Mystic touches a raw nerve in a meeting with the Lady of Cweningas. There's a blood soaked mosaic, an escort of ghostly roman legionaries, and a dangerous cavern...then bloody confrontation, a dark ritual, and a family decimated...

Voidheart Symphony: Forgotten Concerto (Session 3)
Lowell Francis runs for David S., Mendel Schmiedekamp, Patrick Knowles, and Sherri
