  • Call of Cthulhu: Down Darker Trails "Missouri Crossing" Chapter 11: A Day from Nowhere

    As the survivors lay their dead to rest and patch up fraying tempers, Gregory begins losing chunks of time, haunted by dreams of watching eyes that never quite disappear. The caravan pushes on toward Missouri Crossing and instead finds a lone sod house, its fields a fragile promise of normal life. Welcomed by the Burgess family and offered food, pasture, and shelter, the settlers step into their first glimpse of civilization—though none of them are quite sure what might be waiting just beyond the horizon.

    About the Chronicle

    Call of Cthulhu – Down Darker Trails: Missouri Crossing is a Western horror campaign set in 1867, using the Down Darker Trails supplement for Call of Cthulhu 7th Edition. The story follows the founding generations of Missouri Crossing, a rough camp town in what will one day become Bismarck, North Dakota—decades before the events of The Ultimate Evil. As immigrants, veterans, and drifters stake their claim on a cold, contested landscape, they must navigate community, lawlessness, prejudice, and the brutal realities of frontier life. Against this backdrop of manifest destiny, “northern horror” takes shape: long distances, bitter weather, scarce resources, and the creeping realization that some things lurking beyond the firelight are far worse than bandits or hunger.

  • Call of Cthulhu: Down Darker Trails "Missouri Crossing" Chapter 10: Bread, Salt, and Shadows

    Over a hot meal in the Burgess barn, the settlers finally get a taste of comfort after the horrors on the trail. But as small talk turns to questions about Missouri Crossing, they learn the town has no lawmen, no clergy, and a saloon owner with outsized influence. Quiet conversations outside reveal plans to protect their families and maybe shape the town to come—if the shadows of the frontier will let them.

  • Chronicles of Darkness: The Ultimate Evil “Institutionalized” Chapter 29: When the Lights Go Out

    The crew returns to Dakota Adventist Academy after dark, planning a quiet, methodical search—Wayne talking to students, Alex buried in files, Mike and Derek chasing answers in the security room. But as the intercom crackles to life and the building itself seems to turn against them, it becomes clear that someone—not something—inside the school has been expecting their return. What was supposed to be a controlled investigation shifts into a desperate struggle just to stay one step ahead in the dark.

    About the Chronicle

    The Ultimate Evil is a Chronicles of Darkness story about the corruption that festers beneath faith, friendship, and forgotten memories. Set against the stark landscape of North Dakota in the late 1980s, it follows four men bound by tragedy and obsession as they confront the satanic rot infecting their community—and the cost of staring too long into its abyss.

  • Chronicles of Darkness: The Ultimate Evil “Institutionalized” Chapter 28: Lines We Don’t Cross

    The fallout from the barn rattles everyone as Alex struggles with what he saw and Wayne with how badly the plan went off the rails. Derek is finally brought into the deeper, darker history that’s been shadowing this case, while Mike fights to keep the investigation focused and under control. As they prepare to return to the academy at night to review security tapes and quietly talk to students, the team can’t shake the feeling that they’re stepping back into something that remembers them.

  • Chronicles of Darkness: The Ultimate Evil “Institutionalized” Chapter 27: Things That Keep You Up at Night

    Shaken from the failed trip to the academy, Wayne and Alex find themselves back under fluorescent lights and bad coffee, trying to process what happened in the barn and what it might mean. Exhaustion, fear, and stubborn denial collide as they face the reality that whatever is waiting out there isn’t done with them yet.

    Meanwhile, Michael walks into a morning already on fire—news reports, worried friends, and a team that crossed a line while he slept. Between Martha’s concern, Derek’s unease, and a looming confrontation in the office, the group is forced to confront not just the case, but the cost of the choices they’re making to pursue it.

  • 13th Age “The Neverending Story” Prelude 1: Circles in the Cards

    Warning, the following podcast contains violent scenes that may be unsettling to some listeners. Listener discretion is advised.

    The tale begins not with battle or bloodshed, but with possibility. In this opening session of The Neverending Story, two new adventurers take shape beneath the watchful eye of our storyteller. As Bri—an irreverent halfling cleric with a knack for fortunes and misdirection—and Myina, a blind Twigzog outcast who sees the world through roots and memory, begin crafting their identities, the foundation of the chronicle is laid.

    This first episode follows the creation of characters, histories, and the strange world they’re about to step into. Personal quirks, unusual talents, mysterious pasts, and the seeds of future adventure all come together as our two new heroes assemble their abilities, define who they are, and discover why they’ll be stepping into danger side-by-side.

    It’s a quieter beginning—one built on laughter, imagination, and the promise of the long road ahead—but it carries the spark that will eventually ignite into a full-blown saga.

    About the Chronicle

    The Neverending Story is an episodic, rotating-cast 13th Age campaign from Twin Cities by Night. Built around a framework where adventurers come and go, this chronicle explores strange lands, shifting alliances, and mysteries that ripple across the Dragon Empire. Every character brings new influences and new stories, while the campaign’s core threads weave them together into a single long-form adventure.

    Expect shifting parties, unpredictable discoveries, and a world shaped equally by player imagination and the dangers waiting beyond the torchlight.

  • 13th Age “The Beginning of the End” Chapter 6: The Shadow’s Toll

    As the refugee camp erupts into chaos, Sir Hugo and the King throw themselves into a desperate stand between helpless civilians and the demonic vanguard, forced to choose who can be saved—and who cannot. With Dragonhall besieged on a second front by the dead themselves, the companions strike a grim bargain, surrendering years of their own lives to slip aboard the Lich King’s flagship and carry the fight straight into the heart of the undead armada.

    About the Chronicle

    The Beginning of the End is a 13th Age tale set during the waning years of a desperate empire. A small group of unlikely companions is thrust into a web of betrayal, demonic influence, and political decay as they try to prevent Axis from falling into enemy hands.

    Blending character-driven storytelling, high-stakes intrigue, and the chaotic magic of 13th Age, this chronicle follows the same living-world continuity established in prior Twin Cities by Night adventures—while forging a path that leads into darker, far more dangerous territory.

  • 13th Age “The Beginning of the End” Chapter 5: The Dragon’s Tithe

    The party’s next task isn’t glory on the battlefield, but escorting a staggering fortune in gold through a city on the brink. As Sir Hugo and the King are pulled toward a crisis at the refugee camp, Hexar and Hezerella must guide the bribe to its destination through twisting streets, desperate eyes, and the constant threat of betrayal. At journey’s end, a hidden power beneath Dragonhall weighs their worth—and tests just how strong their resolve really is when they stand before more wealth than any mortal should ever see.

  • Monsterhearts 2 "F*ck, Marry, Kill" Chapter 4: Something in the Grass

    As the Halloween party rolls on, the mood in the dorms shifts from messy fun to low-key panic. Lydia is suddenly nowhere to be found, Antoine is spiraling in the group chat, and everyone has a theory but no answers. Morgana, already done with Erica and the whole RA power trip, turns to a ritual for clarity—and what she sees only raises more questions about fear, bodies, and who might be wearing whose skin.

    Meanwhile, Kylie and Sam’s attempt to slip back into normal party life is shattered when a shortcut across the hill sends Kylie tumbling into something wet, heavy, and wrong in the dark grass. For Sam, the discovery hits a nerve that goes far beyond a campus scare; for Kylie, it’s the first real hint that whatever haunts this place isn’t just rumor and gossip.

    As accusations start to simmer and search efforts focus on Lydia, one thing is clear: the night has crossed a line, and nobody’s getting out of it untouched.

    About the Chronicle

    F*ck, Marry, Kill is a Monsterhearts 2 story by Twin Cities by Night, a game of monstrous adolescence where identity, longing, and supernatural instinct collide in painfully human ways. Combining the emotional vulnerability of teenage drama with the dangerous agency of creatures trying to understand their monstrosity, this chronicle explores connection, betrayal, intimacy, and the hunger to be seen for what you are—no matter the cost.

  • Monsterhearts 2 "F*ck, Marry, Kill" Chapter 3: isions on the Hill

    The Halloween party splinters into smaller, sharper moments. While the basement pulses with music and bad decisions, Morgana and Alicia retreat from the chaos with stolen wine, simmering resentment toward Erica, and a shared desire to let the night go their way instead. In the background, Megan is pushed past her limits, and Jennifer tries to keep it together with her own brand of questionable “help.”

    Outside, Sam and Kylie slip away from the crush of bodies to the haunted hill and up to the old chapel—looking for privacy, escape, and maybe a little leverage over the heat that’s been building all evening. What starts as physical distraction turns into something stranger and more unsettling as Sam’s instincts flare and the line between memory, premonition, and raw desire blurs.

    By the time clothes are straightened and everyone checks their phones, the dorm group chat is exploding. Something has happened while they were all busy chasing their own wants—and whatever it is, it’s about to drag everyone back into the gravity of the dorm and the secrets it’s been holding onto.
