Spire: The City Must Fall – Glamour Descending – Session 7

Posted in Actual Play, Fourth 100, Podcasts with tags , , , , , on 29 November 2020 by Mawdrigen


Episode 341

CONTENT WARNING – Spire is a game about facing up to privilege and power, and doing what you can to pull it down. Given the current real world situation this might be a little on the nose for some people, and we are more than happy for you to skip this one until a calmer time if you feel its too much right now.

Firstly we received some Tea from the rather excellent people at Wayward Masquerade makers of the equally excellent Dragon Bagon’s and Bagthulhu’s. Give them a look if you need a good Dice Bag!

The ministries eyes have managed to get Dundarron Hendry a whole level down… by walking down the stairs. Now they must get down further, preferably without being seen or worse captured. To get down further they need to go to various insalubrious locations, starting with the Masksless Enclave. If they can get there.

Escaping from the Assassin is definitely the name of the game, but they also need to get the notes, ad they are in the university. Then they need to get downspire without anyone spotting them, stopping them, or killing them

All in a days work.

With their target located and the vague beginnings of a plan the Ministries Eyes begin to try and find a place to stash Dundarron Hendry once they “persuade” him to come with them. However to find a place the long arm of the Aelfir cannot reach, which is precious few places in Spire

Episode 308

The year is 1972 and Dr Sandy Bakersfield has put together an expedition to a remote Indonesian island to look into rumours of strange beasts and verdant growth. Backed by the shadowy Geneveive Dindroff-Menscher of Arkham, and with Dr Nuess, Dr Minkie, and the slightly nervous Dr Salchesse they are heading into the wild unknown with 3 interns and Irfan Rhampattang their Malay guide.

It should just be a case of getting dropped off and collecting samples.

At Least that’s what Bakersfield has told them, glossing over the stories of Ghosts and Headhunters!

Episode 281

First Off we sadly had a ton of planes going overhead, and the worlds loudest pigeon! Sorry I did try and cut them out where I could!

So they have a plan for dealing with Talithar now, watch her probable route into their domain and drop on her the moment they see her. The fact these plans involve standing around in other vampires domains is neither here nor there.

Also have they really thought through the “look like the sort of people she eats” part of the plan?

Cthulhu Dark – Darka Maza No Tatchi – Session 1

Posted in Actual Play, Podcasts, Third 100 with tags , , , on 21 October 2018 by Mawdrigen


Episode 234
As we were down an Archive we decided to run a little Cthulhu Dark this time, although we did have a slightly creaky chair issue as you will hear.

Follow us as we step into the 1890’s where Japan is on the cusp of becoming a great power as the Meiji restoration continues and the Army moves into Manchuria. However this is a particularly risky time for diplomacy so the last thing the Imperial Palace wants is for a demonstration of Sumo for the various ambassadors to result in an unusual incident.

Our unfortunate characters are tipped to “fix” the problem, or if not that, at least find someone to pin it on.
