The Diceology Podcast

Andy and I talk for two hours and thirty minutes. After editing, I have two hours and fifteen minutes of conversation!  This, part one, is our first hour and while we cover a lot of topics, there's a central point that plays out, again, and again!

Paul and I talk about capitalism, evil races, inclusion vs representation, safety tools, abortion...then we get into our Ars Magica game. Lots of triggery content. Be warned. We recorded this some months back, but I held it because the stuff we talk about is hard, for some folks emotional and full of triggers. Know this: Paul and I do not have the Answers. We talk to get clear on how we game and our approaches to gaming and to be better, safer at it.  You can get the extended version of this recording at my Patreon site.

Whitney Delaglio, game designer but wanted to be a Lawful Evil Dolphin. We chat about Play by post games, Aquatic paladins, and the making of her indie game Prism. It turns out we both enjoyed the Netflix series Marco Polo and Scott Bakula. If you're paying attention, there's a Bret Gillan game designer reference and wisdom in here too!

I got a chance to sit down with Lucian Khan and talk about quarantine life in NY. His early game roots with NES, and playing "secret" Vampire the masquerade games! Lucian is the creator of Dead Friend RPG (it's about necromancy!) and he's wrapping up Visigoths Vs. Mall Goths RPG. We talk about his approach to micro-creations and macro-creations. Lucian and I play in a Liminal RPG game on twitch with the folks from Off the Table where he plays a werewolf priest that is all about the forbidden books - it's fantastic!

You can find Lucian's catalog of games on itch.io

In Champions Now Edwards talks about the Now, the stuff that's already in action at the start of a session. We are 'playing it cool' with the Now in this session. There are several conversations our anti-hero Kurt has with the authorities and one  Charles requested to see play out. And a cliffhanger ending!

Creed "Kat" makes another appearance this issue. You know I'm an X-Man fan. I find Sabretooth fascinating in all his incarnations. Creed is inspired by Sabretooth. In Big Damn Hero we already know she was part of the super-villain group Kurt left and is hunted by. We also know they had a thing. Creed comes from a situation on  Kurt's sheet:

She's built out as a super and has situations.

Creed's Situations

• Enraged: When Hurt (at 1/2 body or stun 11-)
• Unusual looks:  6'4 tall, jacked, tattooed woman. (14-)
• Reputation: Violent Killer (11-)
• Attracted to Bone
• Jealous
• Hunted: Hephaestus, a PMC 
• Hunted: Federal Marshal Service

These are all bad, awful, terrible for Kurt! Just having Creed hanging out is trouble! For me, a character's situations are much more grabby than the powers built. It's like I have TWO cool sets of toys.

Coming up Next: 

• Big Damn Hero - Meta-Talk. We talk about the game and sessions thus far.
• The extended bar conversation between Kurt and Creed.
• Big Damn Hero #04
