Though the ritual that Phillip convinced Fionn to complete was successful and a malevolent spirit exorcised from Cookie, they still need to solve the mystery of Curator Doyle's murder. But Phillip has a crazy idea. --- Music from "The Great Old Ones And Other Beings" by Graham Plowman, found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyFjXaKiJLk&t=761s Website: https://www.

Scene:  A police station interrogation room with a view.  A shot is fired. A spirit's destiny is made manifest.  A mobster plays hardball, and the Irishman proves he's more than he seems.  All of these lead to the three most dangerous words in America:   Phillip is right. --- --- Music from "The Great Old Ones And Other Beings" by Graham Plowman, found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyFjXaKiJ...

Some days you sit at the table with a thousand notes, NPC's, encounters, and maps, ready for your players to dive in.  And, some days, you've got nothing at all and a table of players looking at what you've got next.  Time to crack open a module!  But which one? Join host Jupiter Sanders as she interviews reviewer Bryce Lynch on what to look for - and what to avoid - in playing a prepared module f...

Scene:  The agents arrive at the Arkham police station.  Two are after a book, and make promises to stay out of trouble.  Two are after a clear alibi, and make promises to answer questions to the best of their ability. And one makes a promise to protect another. --- Music from "The Great Old Ones And Other Beings" by Graham Plowman, found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyFjXaKiJLk&t=761s Webs...

With four lines and no waiting, each investigator is working towards their own personal goal.  Or so it seems.   The quartet is still no closer to discovering the truth behind the demise of Curator Doyle, however there are other truths that are within their grasp.   --- Music from "The Great Old Ones And Other Beings" by Graham Plowman, found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyFjXaKiJLk&t=761s...

Bruno and Cookie start to unravel the mystery of the previous night's date.  Fionn is on a search for his suit.  And Phillip...is Phillip.   Still, they are no closer to knowing why a beloved curator was pulled from the river.  Or...   ...They aren't telling.   --- Music from "The Great Old Ones And Other Beings" by Graham Plowman, found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyFjXaKiJLk&t=761s Websi...

What do we do when the modules no longer hold sway?  Build our own, of course! Join host Jupiter Sanders as she interviews Soup, the mind behind the Nazaria audio play about what to watch for when worldbuilding, how far to go, and maybe when to take a step back. Making your own setting has a place for everything, just so long as you remember to keep one Out of Character. --- Nazaria YouTube channe...

Suspicions continue to grow as agents act more and more suspicious around Arkham.  Eyes are being drawn to them and a directive from on high ensures they will remain in the public eye.  It's the eyes that the public cannot see that should concern them the most.   --- Music from "The Great Old Ones And Other Beings" by Graham Plowman, found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyFjXaKiJLk&t=761s Web...

Strange events and ulterior motives are rife in Arkham as dawn breaks.  The Agency wakes to find themselves mired in a terrible situation.  And at least one of their number is hiding something.  --- Music from "The Great Old Ones And Other Beings" by Graham Plowman, found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyFjXaKiJLk&t=761s Website: https://www.

Play by Post campaigns are some of the most difficult to complete.  With nothing but time to spend, players can contribute to a game at their own pace and build stories that some campaigners can only dream of.  However, it's only ever as strong as its weakest link - just like any other game we play. This week, OoC Host Jupiter Sanders interviews Odd about Play-by-Post games, their advantages, and...

Doyle has spirited Cookie away on a date to the finest restaurant in Arkham.  She's on a mission to gather information, he's on a mission to secure his legacy with a spirited woman by his side. And the spirit, well...he's got his own plans. TW: This one has some heavier themes that may suggest sexual assault.  Will recap next week.   --- Music from "The Great Old Ones And Other Beings" by Graham P...

The Agents of D.E.R.P. make a regrettable return to Arkham, Massachusetts and it's flagship university.  While Cookie is entertained by Curator Doyle at the finest restaurant in the city, the others inspect the premises and make a startling discovery. There will be wining and dining, and whining and dying.   --- Music from "The Great Old Ones And Other Beings" by Graham Plowman, found at: https://...

OoC Host Jupiter Sanders is joined by Without a Net Alumni Cotton, who played RC in the Shadowrun campaign, and current player SuperC0okie who plays Cookie in the Call of Cthulhu campaign and has a spot in the upcoming Vampire: The Masquerade game!

Soon, the team leaves for Arkham.   While Ash and Cookie have a heart-to-heart in the office restroom, Ruth and Bruno sit down for small talk over lunch.   --- Music from "The Great Old Ones And Other Beings" by Graham Plowman, found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyFjXaKiJLk&t=761s Website: https://www.

The team is (mostly) reunited with the somber news that it was likely Sam wasn't coming back. Spirits are lifted when Payroll comes around, and Phillip has a bit of fun at Bruno's expense. Agent Patterson, of course, ruins everything.   --- Music from "The Great Old Ones And Other Beings" by Graham Plowman, found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyFjXaKiJLk&t=761s Website: https://www.

This week, Jupiter Sanders interviews SuperC0okie from the Without A Net Podcast Call of Cthulhu campaign, Makiiato from Pink Mowhawk Edition, and con organizer Royce as they discuss the experiences and events surrounding women in gaming. They may be good, they may be bad, but any negativity can be avoided when it's Out of Character.   Host: Jupiter Sanders Edited by: GrafeClan Hosted by: Without...

It's become clear that Phillip is both degrading mentally and is up to something. He's also made a curious new friend with a shared interest in dead languages and resurrection myths. Oh dear. --- Music from "The Great Old Ones And Other Beings" by Graham Plowman, found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyFjXaKiJLk&t=761s Website: https://www.

Stuck in a hospital bed, Fionn now must answer to Agent Patterson's queries, and he doesn't have anywhere to go. Based on the other agent interviews, Fionn has a lot of 'splainin' to do. --- Music from "The Great Old Ones And Other Beings" by Graham Plowman, found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyFjXaKiJLk&t=761s Website: https://www.

Table expectations are something that should be at the top of every gamer's list.  But what happens when part of that expectation is a specific solution to a specific problem and the table has come up with a plausible solution that fits the rules and sinks the campaign? OoC Host Jupiter Sanders interviews Omnicolor of the Burning Edge Shadowrun podcast as well as Without A Net's Bamce and Oz as th...

Agent Patterson calls Charlotte Miller to the stand to recount her experience in Dunwich.  This may give some pause, but Charlotte Miller - Cookie, to her acquaintances - brought a friend. Of course, her friend has other motives, and Agent Patterson may know more facts than he's been given.   ---     Music from "The Great Old Ones And Other Beings" by Graham Plowman, found at: https://www.youtube....

Agent Patterson calls The Honorable Lord Dr. Phillip B. Wiesel, Esquire, to the office to answer some questions regarding the events in Dunwich. Phillip delivers - and discovers - more than he intended.   ---     Music from "The Great Old Ones And Other Beings" by Graham Plowman, found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyFjXaKiJLk&t=761s Website: https://www.

It's part of the common discourse - Quarantine.  Social Distancing.  Isolation.  For a social activity like face to face gaming via boards or RPG's, this kind of thing can really kill a game.  Are we going to forget how to socialize?  What can we DO about this?  Do we need plague doctor masks? Well, in the hypercapitalist future we find ourselves in, we have the Internet, and with the Internet, al...
