This is the first Episode of “A night just like tonight” an Actual Play Podcast of the game Mage: the ascension. This episode focuses on the player Blaine Bennett and his character, how his character ascended, and his past that happened before the first episode. Deep in the Jungles of Vietnam, a lone field medic finds himself in a normal day of service, dropped into a battle he could have never won, and only brought back home through some stroke of luck... or was it more.
