Amidst investigating the blood shortage, Val (Del Borovic, @deltastic) picked up a reinforced Cherry from the shop, Evangeline (Laura Hamstra, @elhamstring) found evidence that Cleopatra’s murder was a coordinated attack, and Doris (Clare Blackwood, @clareblackwood) inadvertently helped Troy by knitting costumes for her cats. Meanwhile, Everett (Tyler Hewitt, @Tyler_Hewitt) was amazed to find that Stella was grateful, but she also suggested that—should New Haven fail—he consider destroying all its kindred. What new complications will Vinlynn Von Kindred’s article throw at the coterie? Featuring our Storyteller Ryan LaPlante (@theryanlaplante).

In the wake of the Neo Notte Nostra’s invitation, Dr. Holloway arrived with troubling news. With all the additional kindred having recently arrived, the blood reserves are running dangerously low, people are showing up to donate blood already drained, and Stella Carson, who was single-handedly running the hospital, is dying. After much deliberation, Everett (Tyler Hewitt, @Tyler_Hewitt) agreed to embrace the comatose Stella for the sake of the town, but now that she’s awake, how will she feel about what her sire did? Featuring our Storyteller Ryan LaPlante (@theryanlaplante) and players Clare Blackwood (@clareblackwood), Del Borovic (@deltastic), and Laura Hamstra (@elhamstring).

After crushing the enemy incursion into New Haven, the coterie had more battles to face. Doris (Clare Blackwood, @clareblackwood) began making a reverse blood stone to find Dylan Zane, Val (Del Borovic, @deltastic) told Everett about Will’s desire to become Kindred, Evangeline (Laura Hamstra, @elhamstring) lost control during a press conference and frightened the reporters, and Everett (Tyler Hewitt, @Tyler_Hewitt) received an invitation to parlay with the Neo Notte Nostra in Calgary.

While the Brujah fought their own battle, the coterie faced down two sets of enemies driving into town. Everett (Tyler Hewitt, @Tyler_Hewitt) crumpled his car, but continued to fight, giving Doris (Clare Blackwood, @clareblackwood) the opportunity to compel their targets to shoot each other and then themselves. On the other side of Main Street, Val (Del Borovic, @deltastic) crashed into the SUV and leapt inside to attack within, while Evangeline (Laura Hamstra, @elhamstring) kept her distance and killed the enemies without. But will their victory subdue the Notte Nostra? Featuring our Storyteller Ryan LaPlante (@theryanlaplante).

As the time of the attack drew nearer, the coterie ushered the festival-goers away from the north end. Everett (Tyler Hewitt, @Tyler_Hewitt) ordered Val (Del Borovic, @deltastic) to break the generator powering the festival, and Evangeline (Laura Hamstra, @elhamstring) sang “Closing Time” at karaoke, while Doris (Clare Blackwood, @clareblackwood) sang her own version, inducing a mild panic about snakes, but nevertheless clearing everyone out. With the officers and the Brujah in position, are they ready for this fight, or are they about to find out that they are terribly outmatched? Featuring our Storyteller Ryan LaPlante (@theryanlaplante).

Hello listeners! Fate has conspired against us! So we don't have a new episode of Blood & Syrup for you this week, BUT! we're excited to have something else for you to check out: another podcast series we make, called "The Valentyne Heresy", and Season 2 is its own standalone story. It's got totally new characters, it's set on a grimdark sci-fi world in the universe of Warhammer 40,000 (but it also has a bunch of comedy, of course!) and Ryan once again steps over to the other side as Game Master.

You don't need to know anything about 40k. If you don't, a bunch of our players didn't when they started out, but they learned a lot, so it's a great intro. If you do know 40k, there's a lot of deep-cut lore because Ryan is 40k obsessed.

It's a cool, intrigue-based adventure, where a new team is thrust together and forced to take part in a race to see who becomes governor and to figure out which candidate may be more than they seem in an evil, spooky, sci-fi, grimdark way.

So please enjoy this pilot episode of season 2 of The Valentyne Heresy, and if you enjoy it, there are plenty more episodes available wherever you get your podcasts!

In the midst of the Friendship Festival, Pyramid 2.0 leader Dylan Zane tried to manipulate Doris’s (Clare Blackwood, @clareblackwood) tarot deck, but ended up with a reading that suggested chaos was coming. Everett (Tyler Hewitt, @Tyler_Hewitt) had to wait for Madre at the end of the three-legged race, which Evangeline (Laura Hamstra, @elhamstring) won and then conceded, and Val (Del Borovic, @deltastic) returned to the station to try to talk sense into Will, but ultimately agreed that if he still felt the same in three months’ time, she’d turn him into a vampire herself. Featuring our Storyteller Ryan LaPlante (@theryanlaplante).

Just before the Friendship Festival, Ridley demanded to know why Everett (Tyler Hewitt, @Tyler_Hewitt) hadn’t found his mum yet, and the rest of coterie discovered that Everett wasn’t supposed to be sheriff. The Festival itself has been a success so far, even though Evangeline’s (Laura Hamstra, @elhamstring) public speaking lesson turned into a puppet show, Val (Del Borovic, @deltastic) left early to talk to Will, and Doris (Clare Blackwood, @clareblackwood) had an existential crisis. But with Dylan Zane showing up to have his tea leaves read, can Doris prevent herself from starting a bloodbath? Featuring our Storyteller Ryan LaPlante (@theryanlaplante).

On the night before the Friendship Festival, Doris (Clare Blackwood, @clareblackwood) revealed her…unique plans. Evangeline (Laura Hamstra, @elhamstring) found a new normal with Teddy, Val (Del Borovic, @deltastic) convinced the Brujah leader to help in the fight, but at the risk of letting the festival drag on dangerously late, and they determined the attacker would most likely be the Notte Nostra coming for revenge. With a call coming in for Everett (Tyler Hewitt, @Tyler_Hewitt) from an old acquaintance, what new complications will they face? Featuring our Storyteller Ryan LaPlante (@theryanlaplante).

While the rest of the coterie dealt with the VH problem, Doris (Clare Blackwood, @clareblackwood) hid from the Pyramid and planned the friendship festival. Margery convinced her that a computer was a painting through which she could speak to potential sponsors, but in securing those sponsors, Doris made some…interesting concessions. How will the coterie manage these new demands and how will they protect the town from the impending attack? Featuring our Storyteller Ryan LaPlante (@theryanlaplante) and players Tyler Hewitt (@Tyler_Hewitt), Del Borovic (@deltastic), and Laura Hamstra (@elhamstring).
