Gauntlet Calendar

Xcrawl World (Session 1 of 3)
Rich Rogers runs for Marc Majcher, Mark (they/them), and Steven Watkins
Zaster's Disasters tackle DungeonBattle Brooklyn!

Free from the Yoke (Session 1 of 7)
Alun R. runs for Alex Greenshields, Dan Brown, Jason Zanes, and Joe F
This session saw the players collaborate to create the Land against which the rest of this series will unfold. A generation after the rebellion that drove 'The Empire' out the Wise Ones are still revered for the leadership their provided and the ultimate sacrifice they made. Now they watch over the inheritors of the rebellion through the trees their bodies nourished. We learn about 'The Jezdec Horselords', the church of 'The Shining Path', the artizans of 'The Sparking Chisel and Blazing Mallet', and the refugees and outcasts who have bound themselves into a community viewed by many as 'The Cursed'.

The Veil Iterations (Session 13)
Lowell Francis runs for Ethan Harvey, Patrick Knowles, Sherri, and Tyler Lominack
Though there's an equipment complication, the group sets up in their safehouse to avoid the ongoing Recording Industry War. Once settled, they leave again to tackle strange broadcast towers related to the Aegis Hyperguild and a sensory-overload dance club.

Xcrawl World (Session 2)
Rich Rogers runs for Greg G., Marc Majcher, Mark (they/them), and Steven Watkins
Zaster's Disasters push further into DungeonBattle Brooklyn and reach the final door.

The Between: Ghosts of El Paso (Session 6 of 12)
Jim Likes Games runs for Chris Newton, José Feito, Puckett, and Steven S.
In this episode, tea with the Mastermind, and our first Assemblage.

The Between: Ghosts of El Paso (Session 7 of 12)
Jim Likes Games runs for Chris Newton, José Feito, Puckett, and Steven S.
In this episode, a harrowing Night Phase confronting The Lady In White, The Mustang, and The Quicksilver Tonsorialist, and we meet Del Sol for the first time.

Free from the Yoke (Session 2 of 7)
Alun R. runs for Alex Greenshields, Dan Brown, Jason Zanes, and Joe F
Having created the 'Land of the Wise' in session 1, in this session we meet the player characters: Gerel, the Vagabond Jezdec Horselord; Kasthera, The Sparkling Chisel and Blazing Mallet's Ambassador; Salah, the Factor (and possible spymaster?) of the Church of the Shining Path; and Elina, the Scout of the Cursed. There's the Spring Conclave of the Wise in this, the 21st year since their victory, the announcement that their Listeners have dreamed of a highway built in unexpected emulation of Imperial practice, and a House ignored. Then, a Monolith, Rogues, and a...Tiger... Sadly human error (mine!) means the middle hour was not recorded...

Swords of the Serpentine: Ill Met in Eversink (Session 4)
Lowell Francis runs for Brandon Brylawski, Harry Coins, Keith Stetson, and Robbie Boerth
The group begins their second case, which is good since they're living above their means having had to kill their employer from the first case. The murder of a scholarly priest in an alley leads to a larger conspiracy involving assassins, opera, immolation magics, and a mysterious group of adventurers.

Seco Creek Vigilance Committee
Donogh runs for Jonathan, Mark, Puckett, and Sabine V.
In the first of our 'Western Crime' series, we go deep into the town's history; where the choices of the posse have a huge impact on the fate of the town and its people. Rough justice and political corruption collide as the incorporation of the town hangs in the balance.

Star Wars Saturday

Justice Velocity (Session 1)
Rich Rogers runs for Ethan Harvey, Greg G., Paul Rivers, and Sabine V.
The PING! Racing team arrive at Sereno with their secret mission - recruit criminal boss Udolth ki Bregan to the New Republic cause!
