Spire: Ironshrike (Session 2 of 4)
Leandro Pondoc runs for Gabriel Robinson, Kyle H., and Pawel S.
Ironshrike seethes. Somewhere in its knotted web of relationships, from desperate drug peddlers to venal gun-running arsonists, religious matriarchs and would-be righteous squires, somewhere in the sea of desperation, is the key to killing a market. Varda seeks to prioritize looking after the weak and dispossessed, Nirvic orchestrates a masterful strike to precipitate social change and Joz carefully demonstrates the principle of, "Punch first, never apologize ever."

Apocalypse World: Loudness Wars (Session 2)
Sawyer Rankin runs for Puckett, Rich Rogers, and Saribel P.
The excursion to a re-imagined plantation ends up in a slave revolt and a dead master, as it should, thanks to our intrepid heroes(?) before a chance meeting with one of the Idols of Gnashville ends with her dead and rent apart by a coaxed mob. The Psychic Maelstrom is invoked to start an uprising that will alter the course of Gnashville forever.

Apocalypse World: Loudness Wars (Session 3)
Sawyer Rankin runs for David Morrison, Rich Rogers, and Saribel P.
Our house Mutha goes shopping out in the Dust and stands up to a cruel Idol who had dared to bring her Family into this. Or, at least, a stupid pantomime of threats. Our Hocus seems to be losing our Skinner's affections for good until the Idols storm their high falutin' dinner party and all hell breaks out. What ends in a ravaged battle exposes the fear of Goddess-hood by the dancer and primes the other two fine ladies for war.

Downfall
