Star Wars Saturday
The Droids
Rich Rogers runs for Cody Eastlick, Greg G., and Joshua Gilbreath
Four droids try to protect Jabba's Palace while struggling to recover what memories they can to find their true purpose.
Gauntlet Hangouts
The Alien Dark: LV-426
Alun R. runs for Erez, Puckett, Sawyer Rankin, and Will H
A group of colonists on Archeron (LV-426) are away from the colony when a crisis takes hold and return to find... [Content warning: body horror]. The session is set in the interval between the colony going dark and the arrival of the USS Sulaco at the start of the Aliens movie and uses my hack of Cthulhu Dark (by Graham Walmsley). It is scaffolded by the new Alien Cinematic RPG from Free League Publishing. A former Colonial Marine) forced from the Corp re-discovers her mojo; a scarred former Medic is determined to put her past behind her but must, instead, confront it; a Scientist determined that Humanity should make the Frontier bloom discovers life is not so simple (and much more horrific) than he had believed; and a Weyland-Yutani Corporate on the slide sees an opportunity to resurrect his career...wait for the epilogues...
Primetime Adventures: Resistance (Session 3 of 5)
Donogh runs for David Morrison, Pawel S., and Pearl Zare
The noose tightens on the cell but they plan to cut off the head of the snake by assassinating chief officer of the Gestapo, Herr Wagner. This operation will test the mettle and loyalty of Pierre. Content warning: mass shooting (even if it's Nazis).
Demigods: Mayhem on the Moors (Session 1 of 3)
Alun R. runs for Eli S., Ludovico Alves, Rob Ruthven, and Sabine V.
In the first of 3 sessions of Demigods (from Jason Mills and currently in V2 Quickstart after a successful kickstarter campaign) we meet librarian Astid Gefn, the Arcane daughter of Freya; London cabbie Dave Deth, the Reaper son of Hel; wrestler Livia "the Golden Lily" Aurea, the Warrior daughter of Palaestra (though Hermes seems to be more interested in her); and former Police detective Sophie Fox, the Trickster daughter of Loki. We discover how they were drawn together by Fate to save local wrestling/concert (and poetry slam) venue, 'Valhalla on Earth' and how Fate has bound them into a Weave. Then, a series of unusual events convinces them that the Weave is needed on Dartmoor...
Monster of the Week: Pequosette in Winter (Session 4 of 4)
Jesse A. runs for Darold Ross, Hannah, Jex Thomas, and Sherri
In the "midseason finale" of our MotW run, we see fissues form in the breakfast club. The Samuel Church house reveals a secret, and new players emerge.
Checkpoint Midnight: Magic Missile Gap (Session 1 of 3)
Alexi S. runs for Jamila R. Nedjadi, Jim Likes Games, and Joe Zantek
We meet our cast of supernatural operatives in Cold War Vienna as they attempt a daring heist at the Belvedere. Inna Morozovya, the Rusalka on the CIA's leash, floods a bathroom and spies on a shady Russian holding a magic bullet. Maria, the naïve Automaton, has a heart-to-heart with a henchman to find his hidden depths. And Marguerite Tone, the slinky Matagot, trades catty barbs with a rival and crawls through a ventilation shaft to steal the prize.
Veil Fantasy (Session 4)
Lowell Francis runs for Alun R., David Morrison, Fraser Simons, and Leandro Pondoc
Dantalion sees horrors, Arklow crafts a tautological sword, Damsa reads a diary, and everything goes wrong when Opal confronts her ex-lover, revealing many hidden truths.
