[Gauntlet Calendar: Online Tabletop RPG Play]
​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. These recorded sessions represent only a portion of the selection of games available every week, and anyone is welcome to join the fun! 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

#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...
