Recorded just before the Election we were feeling a bit political at the beginning but then we launch straight into a million different threads of the investigation!
With Chester Fillman joining them they have some much needed muscle as they decide to go and take a look at the Tomb to see what may have been lost. With burglars kits and other such things. There they make a startling discovery the Mims Sahis, the dagger of Sedefkar was possibly in the tomb!
We finally try a tea designed to make us sleep, although we do also note it includes Lemongrass which makes you randy!
Then we launch into preparing for our meeting at the Tomb of Claude Velon in Highgate Cemetary. This plan involves, robes, black light, a giant glowing dog, and Mawdrigen getting properly fucked off with his dice.
We try a tea which is “alright”, and discuss vitamin B12.
Then we launch into the session, finding the investigators having escaped from the gun fight at the Train Station with Jazmina Moric the daughter of the Professor Moric that has found a Tomb adorned with a statue of Renault of Flanders.
In the taxi she explains that her father is missing and thanks them (especially Tim) for their help with the potential kidnappers. They head towards the hunting lodge that the Wagon – Lits company is intending to put them up in.
Still looking for a Cauldron belonging to a bunch of Faeries and following the clues from the dead Antiques dealer the characters get a promising lead.
Sort of.
However it becomes obvious that we don’t really know what we are doing as we flounder wildly trying to find out what the hell is going on. Also why did Nuada choose US for the job…

After a brief Champagne Breakfast they find themselves arriving in Vinkovinci by means of an anarchist (or comunist, or maybe croatian) bomb on the points the Investigators are immediately thrown into a dangerous situation. The Serbian Military Police think they are probably anarchists, or maybe Communists. Then they come to the aid of a damsel in distress with dangerous effect.
Also we plug the SideQuest Adventure Decks by Inkwell Ideas (available HERE) which have a few seeds written by Mawdrigen!
As Mawdrigen had three hours of sleep, hadn’t read the next chapter, and had just realised we’d reached the halfway point and two and a half YEARS (gods these players are slow).
So we actually decided to do a bit of a retrospective on the first half of the campaign, including talking through the campaign that came directly before we started doing the Podcast “Blood of the Father”.
We’re back in the Dresdenverse and this time we aren’t jumping all over the place! Well we are still jumping about, but that’s actually us not the recording. Having realised that the Cauldron of the Daghda was probably swiped from the dead Antiques Dealer by someone who could travel through the Nevernever.
So off we go to Dulwich village, where the more non-human of us immediately choose the most non-human methods to investigate.
