Old Gods of Appalachia

Image
I'm still working through season 2, so no spoilers. Please. Today, I picked up copy of the roleplaying game based on the podcast, Old Gods of Appalachia. This a horror podcast written by Cam Collins and Steve Shell that debuted on October 31, 2019. The show is produced by DeepNerd Media and is distributed by Rusty Quill. If you care about that kind of stuff, I'm not sure I do. Anyway, the podcast was adapted into a role-playing game by Monte Cook Games. I really like the podcast, the ideas behind the stories, and Monte Cook Games tend to make pretty good stuff, so I have high hopes. I've been looking at this particular copy of the game for several months. Today, it decided to come home with me.

Cyberpunk RED One Shot

Today we were going to forgo our usual Traveller campaign and give the latest version of the Cyberpunk rpg a try. But that was cancelled by a winter storm barreling through the region. I bought the Cyberpunk RED rulebook a few weeks back, but haven't had the opportunity to dig into it. I mentioned this to Brett, the GM, and he suggested that we both read up on the system and then, together, we should be able to figure it out for this one shot. That didn't happen. Good thing I have another week to read the book, because all I did this past week is watch a bunch of videos and skim through the book. I've run previous versions of the game. How much could it have changed? Right! Damn, this book is so poorly organized it stresses me out to go through it. I want to play, but this is rough. Maybe I'll just watch more videos.  I did find the Cyberpunk RED Easy Mode pdf on drivethrurpg. It's free, maybe, if you're interested, you should check it out. Here is the link: Cyb...

Adventure #7: Cragmaw Castle

  2023/10/22 Session 7: Cragmaw Castle (Campbell, Doug, Gryffon, Ronn, Zak) 5 Winterwane 5023 The members of The Order of Righteous Peregrination , having escaped the captivity of the Redbrands and recovered in relative comfort and security of the Stonehill Inn, awake late in the morning to a buzz of commotion running through the camp. In a move to counter any actions by the Heroes of Eureka the Redbrands have dragged some aberration from the ruins and staked it out in front of the town hall. The creature is monstrous with bony spikes protruding from its mottled back, terrible talons, and a single great eye above a maw of sharp fangs. Both the mayor, Harbin Wester , and the real leader of the town, Vilarno Albrek , gave rousing speeches about the mind altering powers of this creature and blamed the rash of bad behavior by the Redbrands on the creature's influence. Assurances were made that with this creature slain, the corrupting influence of its magic on the camp would end, the ...
