This group is getting very familiar with the sewer system in Consiglio, as they meet up at the site of the explosion, and sneak past the guards to find out the fate of Choler. But what one character finds instead, stays true to form, and could sent this story careening around yet another dark turn. System: OpenD6 Adventure, from West End Games CAST: Jordan — The Game Master Aaron — Sam Feluge Jeff...

The initial investigation at The Canterbury continues. Everyone seems to find some interesting bit of info, even if they don't all admit it. But what is discovered sends them rushing back to base in a hurry where they'll start to make sense of the madness... and burn things. Game System: Inspectres by Jared A. Sorenson Cast: Carlin –  Auri Glasston Jeremy  –  Nathan Alex Woodson Joh...

After a session of play chock full of emotions and dark, sinister, and disturbing reveals in the wake of the explosion, we toss around some theories of what has actually happened, and what is still yet to come for our characters. Jordan shares some insight on some of the inspiration for the darkness of the story. One thing we all are sure of, is that there is much more darkness to find our way thr...

The franchise gets a call and secures it's next job form a peculiar gentleman who works at The Canterbury. During the Investigation Phase, Jordan reveals that there are some real life details weaved into the premise of the story, at least according to a list of Seattle's most haunted places. But the group goes to see there is any truth to this ghost story. Game System: Inspectres by Jared A. Soren...

Yep, there's more explosions in this episode. But it's not what you may think. The bombs that are dropped here may crack some individual characters rather that the dome of the city. This all made for some pretty good role playing and even a couple interesting solo scenes. And yet again, this episode ends with one of those solo scenes for Sam. Yes, there is a cat. System: OpenD6 Adventure, from Wes...

We set up our franchise in this episode. Our choices of the franchise name, location, and financial status will determine some key details in the game. When we start rolling for what our technology limitations are, that adds some pretty interesting quirks that will provide some challenges for the business... but will make for some great storytelling for sure. Game System: Inspectres by Jared A. So...

Because of his cooperation, Chime is released form custody. But we quickly see that even the most cooperative of citizens is not a trusted citizen. But that's not all we learn. With the death of a key player in the Healing Hands, the evidence suggests that there are definitely more gears turning beneath the surface than our group was aware of. And even the face of the Healing Hands hides some trut...

Here's another throwback to one of our favorite games. This is our 1st run of the game Inspectres; a game that combines the worlds of Ghostbusters and Cops. In this episode, we begin the process of developing our characters using the Campaign Mastercraft Method! Jordan then conducts interviews with each of the characters to learn even more about them. Game System: Inspectres by Jared A. Sorenson C...

We jump back to our main characters to see how the are navigating the aftermath of the explosion. As they scatter, one character gets a glimpse that the adversaries that they are facing have not yet been fully revealed. And before they know it, they are being summoned back together because of an unexpected death. System: OpenD6 Adventure, from West End Games CAST: Jordan — The Game Master Aaron —...

All our characters spring into action to bring an end to the battle, and along with it, the end of the school day, and our play session. Jordan explains the after-game adjustments that can be made to our characters to become better at their specific areas of study. We then slip into some commentary on the game play and how  the mechanics are a interesting departure from the dice systems that...

Here is the commentary episode on our recent "side-shot" sessions. We rehash our favorite moments, and highlight the key parts that will most-likely have an impact on the main story moving forward. The players applaud each other for their interesting roleplaying choices, and Jordan talks about how this method of fleshing out the world and the story was an ambitious endeavor. Overall, we had a blas...

We pick up the story in this episode at the end of the first long grueling day at Eldritch High. The students, however, have more excitement in store as the mystery surrounding Gareth and Mr. Twiggy is revealed. The lessons taught on the first day of school are already being put to use in the form of some extracurricular activity; a magical battle on the quad. System: Eldritch High by John Wick CA...

We wrap up our "side-shot" series with an episode unlike any other... mostly because the dice were not at all kind to our characters. But even with the awful rolls, we dove into the dumpster and still came out with a great story as our group of street kids show a much different side of Consiglio. We had so much fun with this episode that there is a definite possibility that characters and themes e...

In episode 2 of this throwback series we learn that Eldritch High, on the surface, is not much different than the average high school with trips to the Headmaster's office, lunchroom cliques, and student's jockeying for popularity... or avoiding it all together. But underneath their cool, self-aware exterior, something is brewing; something magical; something mysterious. ...something sinister? Sys...

In our next "side-shot" episode, we get a glimpse of what North Bellasaira hopes to be the bright future of Consiglio. Our character and their classmates have been chosen to receive the best education at the country's top prep school, from which the next generation of leaders will be trained. Even though it's not all work and no play, there are still rules to follow, and the students all know that...

Here's a throwback to a fun one-shot we ran called Eldritch High. In this episode, we talk about the different rule-sets of the system, introduce the characters, and gave life to our "Homeroom" in an interesting way so that there are plenty of NPCs to interact with. System: Eldritch High by John Wick CAST: Carlin – Jorn Gunnerson Jackie – Aiyana "Juicy" Straughn Jeff – Ando Gonshu Jeremy – Romero...

Here is the 2nd episode of our "side-shots" to the main campaign. We had a lot of fun with this one, in large part due to our action-hero inspired personas for our characters. The dice seemed to agree with the sentiment, creating some pretty funny moments of play. But all joking aside, our team of military investigators show the Council's swift response to the explosion. But it seems as though the...

This is not our normal commentary style episode, as we only briefly touch what we did in our play of the roleplaying game then jump fully into what we were all waiting for... our commentary/review of Star Wars Episode 9: The Rise of Skywalker. From the visuals, to acting, to our favorite scenes, we touch a little bit of everything, sharing our opinions on what we liked, what we didn't like, and ou...

After the exciting events of the last episode, we embark on a new way of telling the story. We're taking a broader view of the city and how events are impacting different level of society. In this episode we are at ground zero of the explosion with a group of workers who frantically try to contain the damage. Enjoy the next few episodes for what we have called "side-shots" to our main story. We ce...

So much for staying free from First Order entanglements. The regime seems to have a peculiar interest in Zorii's crew, and there are some hints at the beginning of descent within the galactic superpower. Also, some of the players couldn't help but dive headlong into some commentary on the movie an episode ahead of schedule. But the full commentary will have to wait until the next One-Shot episode....

In this commentary session, we sort through the rubble that is the aftermath of the past few episodes. We talk about how the darkness of the world we had been alluding to has finally come to fruition. The players also realize they have hit a stride with their characters, and because of this their plans and the GM's sometimes get thrown out the window. System: OpenD6 Adventure, from West End Games...

Well, no job is as simple as it seems for Zorii Bliss and her crew. Two unlikely characters were selected to negotiate for payment, and it wouldn't be Nal Hutta without a dark ally shootout, or some sketchy gambling. We did invent along the way an off the cuff a new casino dice game, and a play for our gamblers to ensure a profit. That's what this episode holds in store. System: Star Wars – Rolepl...

We have reached a turning point here, midway through season 1. A decision made here will rock the city of Consiglio and change the course of this campaign. In this episode, the winds change, the earth shakes, the fires rage, and the wave crash all around the characters. They will be left standing in awe, gasping for air, or fleeing for their lives. And some will suffer losses that they may never f...

Since most of us have a love for all things Star Wars, including the roleplaying game, we decided to have some fun after we all saw The Rise of Skywalker. We'll be playing along side the timeline of the latest trilogy, and our characters are actually inspired by The Rise of Skywalker. If for some reason, you haven't seen the movie by now, there will be spoilers throughout this one-shot, as well as...

In both a daring escape and an epic showdown under the streets of Consiglio, we get a glimpse at the scope of both elemental and innate powers. And with their powers combined, new revelations are made. But how long will this cooperation last?
