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 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.
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”.
*tongue trauma warning*
Trapped in what they assume is Dream Zagreb they continue pursuing the “Skull Stroking Weirdo” in the hope of learning what he knows about the Sedefkar Simulacrum.
In a weird city.
A very very weird city, but they might get some help at least!
Join us now as they wander through the confused, wild, and terrifying City of Bells and Towers
IT having all “gone to buggery” in the words of Tiny Tim Boxley the Investigators flee the scene taking the dodgy amulet with them. Some mourning is done for Oldstaff, Warfestache, and Otto the Bystander before fleeing back to Trieste.
Luckily it seems someone has appeared to help them, but can they be trusted?
Finally they head back to the Orient Express hoping for a nice rest and chance to recuperate… maybe with a lovely glass of wine.
What could go wrong. Continue reading
Trapped in the darkness and surrounded by cultists the Investigators engage in a tense standoff. The Cultists want the Medallion, the Investigators don’t want to give it to them, and Otto the German Tourist is really very confused by what is going on. Gory death could be on the cards for everyone!
