Drawn from the Undertow (fka Eidolon Playtest)

This month.... we've been really busy! We only got about two and a half playbooks worked on, instead of the full four we planned! But, however, in our defense: we're fuckin' COOKIN'. Listen to us talk about The Blight, The Sovereign, and a little bit about The Mutant!

I don't really know anything about Boney M, other than they're the people that made that there Rasputin song! I never know what to write for these show notes when I wasn't involved in the recording process! Click play along with me so we can all find out about this musical group together!
