    You discern no reality.  But reality discerns you!

  • S03E06 - Dune: the Roleplaying Game - Episode One - Session Zero

    Strap on your stillsuits and hop aboard a heighliner to Arrakis, as Rob leads us through our session zero of Modiphius' Dune - the Roleplaying Game.  We go through an overview of the rules, step by step character creation, adventure hooks and a whole host of rabbit holes.  We make understanding Dune so easy that even we could play it.

    Just in time for Valentine's Day.  Love, lust and jealousy are in the air.  Faces will be slapped, sabres rattled, honors restored & ruined, accusations levied & refuted, and erotic machinations afoot, as we pull up our tights, fix our powdered wigs & play Greg Stolze's GM'less TTRPG "Dueling Fops of Vindamere" from Crankshaft Constellation.

  • S03E01 - Blades in the Dark Episode 8 - Four Dice for Gregor

    "Another week of skulking and surveying?!  I need to blow something up!"


    Our first episode of 2022 finds us laying a carefully-planned ambush in the mist-shrouded streets of Doskval, as we continue our playthrough of John Harper's "Blades in the Dark".  With a plan this detailed and well-thought-out what can possibly go wrong?

  • S02E26 - Blades in the Dark Episode 7 - Half a Dozen Simple Plans All Ending In Murder

    "Well...it's insane, but it's wildly theatrical, so I'm on board"


    Our playthrough of John Harper's "Blades in the Dark" continues into our final episode of 2021.  With a problematic old friend of Gunn's hot on their tail, the Sun Chasers struggle to come up with an exit plan from the revolting predicament in which they have found themselves.

  • S02E25 - Blades in the Dark Episode 6 - Phylactery-Making For Dummies

    "I don't think a friend can assist on a vice?"

    "Have you ever been out on the town with me?"

    Our playthrough of John Harper's "Blades in the Dark" continues as we plunge into downtime activities.  Come learn along with us, as the Sun Chasers begin to grow into an outfit that just might be able to cut it in Duskwall after all.  Then stick around as we get back into free play, where Silver goes to tea to help a woman find the niece we unfortunately murdered in episode 21 (oops!), Seymour and Gun sell their services to a team of aquatic twentysomethings, and Rip and Willy have an M.R. James moment with a mummified heart.
