  • Episode #160: My Late Father's Correspondence Pt. 2

    Content Warnings

    ⁠My Late Father's Correspondence⁠ explores bittersweet family drama. Content includes grief, patriarchy, illness, colonialism, war and death.

    Show Notes

    This week, Fiona is playing '⁠⁠My Late Father's Correspondence⁠⁠': an epistolary roleplaying game of bittersweet family drama by Hayley Gordon and published by ⁠Storybrewers Roleplaying⁠.

    The player takes on the role of the younger child of the deceased Col. Thomas Lockley, answering letters he can no longer reply to, and learning about the father who played a difficult role in their life.

    The game is simple—the player will open, read, and reply to the letters you receive at Eadly Hall. However, family, duty, and grief are not simple at all, and the player will make hard decisions about the future to come.

                              Show Notes

                              To tide us over til our next one-shot, here's a bonus episode where our host and GM Fiona chats to Quinn Majeski, show runner of the Monster Hour podcast and the game designer behind Absurdia: A tabletop roleplaying game about absurd humor and surreal horror.

                              Absurdia is an modern fantasy roleplaying game about the inane hilarity and understated horror of everyday life. Inspired by works like Welcome to Night Vale, Alice in Wonderland, Gravity Falls, and the Twilight Zone, Absurdia is an opportunity to indulge in the surreal and outlandish while subverting the absurdity of modern society.

                              In Absurdia, players take on the roles of peculiar residents of an unassuming suburban town turned upside down by entropic chaos. They’ll contend with occult bureaucracy, a megalomaniacal PTA, sentient cars, malevolent garden flora, a non-Euclidean network of back alleys, and the occasional extradimensional cosmic horror in a darkly idyllic community.
