Gauntlet Calendar

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?

Hollows: Yes, the abyss gazes but I have a mystic shotgun (Session 3 of 3)
Kieron runs for Dan Brown, David Morrison, Jim Likes Games, and Pawel S.
Deeper into Steel City, where our heroes fight an industrial disaster that walks like a man, investigate job opportunities in a hellscape and engage capitalism in a frank exchange of views and/or attacks.

Defy the Gods: Heart Caught Between Glory & Doom (Session 1 of 4)
Chris Sellers runs for Elle, Jonathan, Madelancholy, and Matthew Doughty
For the first session of this playtest, the players made their characters, built the world, and created relationships in depth.
