[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

Free from the Yoke (Session 7 of 7)
Alun R. runs for Alex Greenshields, Dan Brown, Jason Zanes, and Joe F
In the Season 1 finale, the Houses continue to manoeuvre for advantage while Eva of the Shining Path leads Ehsan Baccus, Champion of the Temple Guards with instructed to protect her, and her frenemy, the sardonic Saruke (Ambassador from the Jezdec Horselords) into the steam hot tunnels that have opened beneath the remaining Ancient Monolith. Helga of the Cats, Shadow of the Wise, accompanies them with a mission of her own... There's a preacher with a warning, lava pits, and a curtain of flame that speaks. Then Helga disappears, Razzim (a Chisel & Mallet spy within the Temple Guards) reveals his power, Ehsan suffers to protect his people, and, with the help of Loremaster Kasthera, Eva discovers what's going on...and it doesn't bode well for the Wise... We can only hope that Season 2 is greenlit... (The final map of The Land of the Wise)

Nahual (Session 2 of 2)
Will H runs for Jason Zanes, Keith Stetson, Patrick Knowles, and Rich Rogers

The Veil Iterations (Session 15)
Lowell Francis runs for Ethan Harvey, Patrick Knowles, Sherri, and Tyler Lominack
The group finally attempts to deal with Demise, but their interrupted by a Black-Ops attack group--payback for earlier work. They survive and uncover clues leading to the Hyper Guild behind nearly everything.

The Veil Iterations (Session 16)
Lowell Francis runs for Ethan Harvey, Patrick Knowles, Sherri, and Tyler Lominack
The finale is finally here--the group prepares for their assault on the Aegis Hyper Guild, spending cashing, drawing in allies, and making dangerous deals. But the infiltration goes wrong almost immediately...

Apocalypse Keys: Til We Have Faces (Session 0)
Lowell Francis runs for Anders, Paul Rivers, and Puckett
In this character creation session we meet three of our four agents operating from a DIVISION hub located in Gothenburg, Sweden: Lissa Starkweather, a cosmic forces-infused Surge; Eggther, The Last of the giants; and Weeper, The Drinker of Tear, our Hungry whose origins reach back to the beginning of Christianity.

Apocalypse Keys: All the Bells on Earth (Session 0)
Lowell Francis runs for Cat Rambo, Jesse A., José Feito, and Steven Watkins
We do set up and character creation for this DIVISION team based beneath the Field Museum in Chicago: Vane, The Summoned from who missed his friends in Hell; Cetus, The Found who DIVISION found in hidden away in the dreams of a forgotten god in the depths of a forest; Sampson, The Shade who watches the lives around him even as he tries to recall his own death; and Beezlebub, The Hungry whose fall from eater of worlds to his present state has left them with issues.

Against the Neon Conspiracy (Session 1 of 2)
Alun R. runs for David Miessler-Kubanek, Sabine V., SalamanderJames, and Will H
In this session we introduces the PCs and build the Sprawl where they make their lives. We meet Tower, the former union man taken apart, rebuilt and enhanced to be the team's Face; Spider, a vat-grown-death-angel-assassin, who does their best work naked; Hive, the team's GhostChaser seeking revenge for everything the Corps have done to them, the people, and the technology they loved. Finally, there's Kumo, genetically enhanced to be a potent 5-foot-nothing bulldozer with ballet moves and very sharp claws fighting to save others from the fate that befell her community. Ms Smith contracts with them to obtain some offline data from a secure location below Nexus-Pharma University where a competitor, NeuroScore, seems to have authority. There's different ways in, the usual CorpSec, and a dire warning...then a mysterious figure and wasps, so many wasps...

Against the Neon Conspiracy (Session 2 of 2)
Alun R. runs for David Miessler-Kubanek, Sabine V., SalamanderJames, and Will H
We pick up with Spider in the ducts...with cyber-wasps...and Hive Ghosting the system to work out which way they should go...past the mysterious cowled figure facing off with Tower and Kumo. The sound of a minigun powering up under their robe prompts Spider to put a high calibre round into what they (mistakenly) assume is its brain, while Tower leaps out of the line of fire and carries Hive to safety. Then Kumo dances in close to slice and dice the minigun...if only there wasn't a second one! There's human-insect hybrids, and an old school data core...then a guardian disposed of; the dangers of data extraction revealed; and an explosion before...a Zoom-Zoom way out...and a moral dilemma solved by a different zaibatsu...

Mountain Home: From Fallen Halls (Session 0)
Lowell Francis runs for Ethan Harvey, Patrick Knowles, Sherri, and Tyler Lominack
In this set up session for a new quarterly, we meet our Founders, dwarven heroes setting out from an existing settlement to excavate and restore a fallen metropolis-- uncovering secrets, building their community, and dealing with neighboring factions. The first part is set up and world building but then we join these heroes as the journey and catch their first sight of Karak Minor, the city beneath the mountain of Sky Island.

Star Wars Saturday

2400: Cosmic Highway
Rich Rogers runs for Greg G., Keith Stetson, Sabine V., and Steven Watkins
The crew of the Sunchaser get stuck in asteroid field and things continue to spiral down from there.
