Tales From the Hydian Way

Joshua feels deeply about Jet Packs.

We look at how you can use gear that can seem over the top and how to bring it into a cool encounter to showcase it. From the jump boots we just found, to some amazing ideas on what to do with a gravshute, we give a broad idea of where to get ideas from and share a few of our own.

Or you can listen below as we recover from a short excursion to Gand to get something important back.

David was talking about his Nebulon-B campaign and the idea was cool enough that we decided to do an entire episode about campaigns being set on a ship and the cool things you can do with it. Taking cues from The Hunt for Red October and Battlestar Galactica all the way through SeaQuest we talk about how to bring being on a large ships bridge to life.

We talk about coercion and the use of the skill at the table.

Joshua is away and one of my players was looking at the blackmail talent, so David and I had a discussion on how to use it, how it’s been used in movies and ways to improve its effectiveness.

Organizations are fun to come up with, so we came up with 9 new ones, each with a different bend.

Or sit reverently in the citadel as we recount tales of despair and the hope we found in them.

A missing player isn’t the end of the world. We talk about how you can deal with players that are gone for a session or a month. The approaches differ but can be used to set the story forward in ways that wouldn’t normally be available.

We talk about Beasts this week because ages ago @thebrometheus decided he really liked the 30 odd dogs in his family room.

It’s taken a little bit but we here on the Reluctant Bogwing  sat down and talked about beasts from the wonderful swarm of bees to Zilo beasts.

Ben is back and he brought in two other people to talk with him about Star Wars and the cool things they can come up with.
