August 07, 2019 13th Age "The Breaking of Forstor Nagar" Chapter 5: Through the Temple Door
With a line of refugees depending on them, the four travelers make their cautious approach toward the temple—one of the last remaining sanctuaries within besieged Forstor Nagar. A rising storm, shifting shadows, and the constant threat of patrols force them to move in silence, relying on trust, discipline, and careful coordination to keep everyone alive.
Inside the temple, however, nothing feels certain. The air is thick with unease, and the travelers quickly discover that not all dangers roar or announce themselves. Tension rises as unexpected encounters test their judgment, threaten their unity, and challenge their understanding of what is truly happening within the city’s sacred heart.
Episode 5 builds the pressure beneath the surface—quiet footsteps in vast halls, decisions made in darkness, and the unsettling sense that something powerful is waking just beyond reach. As the party presses deeper, both their mission and their bonds are pushed to the edge.

August 04, 2019 13th Age "The Breaking of Forstor Nagar" Chapter 4: The Weight of the Living
After carving their way through the frozen outskirts of Forstor Nagar, the group finally reaches the diplomatic compound—a fragile sanctuary holding soldiers, nobles, and frightened civilians who have survived the siege so far. Inside its walls, difficult conversations unfold. Trust is thin, hope is thinner, and the four travelers must prove their intentions before being allowed any further toward the city’s heart.
As they seek guidance about the oracle’s whereabouts, they find themselves balancing diplomacy, faith, and the harsh realities of a city on the edge of ruin. Newly formed alliances promise direction, but only if the party is willing to shoulder more responsibility than they anticipated. With nightfall approaching, they prepare to scout ahead—mapping a safe path through cursed streets, watching for enemy patrols, and weighing the risks of moving with those who cannot defend themselves.
Episode 4 follows the quiet tension that builds before a decisive push forward, as the travelers confront the human cost of the siege and the moral complexity of who can be saved—and how far they are willing to go to do it.

Join us as Andrew and Mitch talk about the Assamite clan Schism in Vampire: the Masquerade

Brian’s Diaries serves as a more introspective sister series—part journal, part commentary, part look behind the curtain. In each entry, Chris reflects on his experiences as a storyteller, podcaster, and creator within the Twin Cities by Night community. He also interviews people who are involved in the gaming community for their insights too.
Episodes explore what it means to run long-term chronicles, build living worlds, collaborate with players, and carry the emotional and creative weight of horror storytelling. The tone is honest and personal, sometimes humorous, sometimes somber, always authentic. Whether discussing past games, real-life challenges, or lessons learned through years of running narrative-heavy campaigns, Brian’s Diaries offers a rare, open look at the person behind the stories.

July 26, 2019 13th Age "The Breaking of Forstor Nagar" Chapter 3: Fire on the Rooftops
As the siege deepens and danger tightens around every street and rooftop of Forstor Nagar, the party must make rapid decisions that test their resolve and their trust in one another. A threat hidden high above the frozen city forces the group into a tense advance across treacherous ice, where every step risks exposure—and every delay carries a price.
Inside a darkened building, a risky attempt at infiltration quickly turns volatile, pushing Harad, Sir Hugo, Ismail, and Nomina into a desperate scramble for survival. Fire, shadows, and the chaos of close-quarters combat follow as the group fights to regain control of their path forward. What they face on the rooftops will shape the emotional weight they carry into the city’s heart as they continue their search for the oracle.

July 24, 2019 13th Age "The Breaking of Forstor Nagar" Chapter 2: Blood on the Ice
With the burning ship halted and the bridge to Forstor Nagar secured, the party is forced to decide what kind of heroes they really are. Surrounded by surrendering enemies on a doomed vessel, Ismail, Sir Hugo, Harad, and Nomina confront the brutal reality of the Hungering Legion and what “mercy” means in a war like this.
Inside the city of ice, they meet Bjorn at the fisher gate and learn just how desperate the siege has become. Cursed buildings, broken districts, and a holy city on the edge of collapse form the backdrop as the group presses toward the diplomatic quarter in search of the oracle’s spokesman. Their path takes them across treacherous rooftops, through hidden dangers woven into the very architecture, and into the line of sight of unseen killers who pick off fleeing refugees from the shadows. Hard choices, shaken faith, and the weight of command all begin to press down as they move deeper into the heart of a dying city.

The frozen city of Forstor Nagar is under siege by the cannibals of the Hungering Legion. Four travelers—each with their own secrets and agendas—have come to this dying city in search of its elusive oracle and the answers she might hold. Forced to slip toward the walls through hidden fisher tunnels and across a treacherous ice bridge, they must face brutal choices, hostile terrain, and the first signs of the Legion’s ruthless tactics.
This episode introduces Harad the undying orc sorcerer (Becca), Sir Hugo of Arnost, commander in service to the Emperor (Christopher), Ismail the thrice-damned tiefling paladin (Quinn), and Nomina, an elven huntress and priestess of the Triumvirate (Tilman), with Slavic as dungeon master guiding them into the heart of the siege.

July 17, 2019 Chronicles of Darkness: The Ultimate Evil "Institutionalized" Chapter 5: Pink Slips in the Snow
Winter keeps its grip on Bismarck. Wayne leans harder into Raymond’s quiet mentorship—and a new morning resolve—while trailer-park coffee with Bruce turns into hard truths about complication and consequence. Across town, Derek’s day starts ordinary and ends with a layoff, as the Civic Center contract evaporates and a month’s pay in an envelope won’t cover the weight on his shoulders. With livelihoods cracking like river ice, Dakota Investigative Services faces a choice: chase small cases to survive, or step back toward the darkness that started it all.

July 14, 2019 Chronicles of Darkness: The Ultimate Evil "Institutionalized" Chapter 4: A Knock in the Snow
Three months after the licenses are stamped and the shingle goes up for Dakota Investigative Services, winter settles hard over the plains—and over old wounds. One of the crew retreats to the edge of the reservation, seeking quiet and control, but the past doesn’t ask permission. A late-morning knock brings a familiar name, frayed by grief and fury, and an elder’s counsel forces a choice: keep surviving, or start healing. In the hush between snowfall and sunrise, the fight against the unseen takes a breath—and a new direction.

July 08, 2019 The Hunters Hunted II "Corruption" The Final Chapter: Reconciliation
Daylight finds the hunters in pieces—bleeding, shaken, and clutching at the edges of what’s left. The church burns behind them, sirens wail, and Washington, D.C. hums unaware of the war being fought beneath its skin. Every secret kept, every body left behind, carries a cost. For some, survival feels like punishment; for others, proof that the fight isn’t over. In the aftermath, the hunt changes shape—but not its hunger.
About the Chronicle
Hunters Hunted II: Corruption is a Vampire: the Masquerade 20th Anniversary Edition chronicle set in the World of Darkness. It explores what happens when ordinary people confront extraordinary horror—and how corruption can take root in those who swear to fight it.
