[Scrolls and Swords] "Crit This!" One-Shot

'Tis the season for unexpected travel plans and unexpected colds, and a combination of both scuttled our scheduled Pendragon session this week. But fear not! We shall return next week, come hell or high water (or stuffy noses).

This week, instead, we'd like to share a recent session from our sister AP feed, Crit This!. It's David Schimpff's other regular group, and if you enjoy the Esoteric Order's shenanigans, do go give them a look - there's a fair amount of incestuous back-and-forthing between the players.

Case in point, our selection from the Crit This! archives is a recent session Dave ran for EoRP regular Jade and Crit This! regulars Russell and Scott, and is the one-page fantasy RPG Scrolls and Swords, based off of onesevendesign's Lasers and Feelings RPG. Dave sends along the warning that the session was heavily influenced by Adventure Time and features a candy break in the middle...

[Call of Cthulhu] Crack'd and Crook'd Manse (Again!)

There's an old holiday tradition, not oft practiced in these debased times, of telling ghost stories on Christmas Eve.

Now it's a few days after that date, but - as the Esoteric Order takes this weekend off for the winter holidays (and to roll their skill checks and make their aging rolls) - we wanted to present you, the listener, with a treat in the vein of that august Christmas Eve activity.

Esoteric Order members David S. and Scott co-host a biweekly midnight radio show at our local college radio station, and every once in a while they turn their microphones over to doing a real-time live-play of an RPG scenario. This past Thanksgiving Eve, they invited some friends of the Order to join them in a play-through of "Crack'd and Crook'd Manse", a scenario the Order has tackled once before.

So please enjoy this holiday treat; the usual Great Pendragon Campaign posts will resume next week.

[Pendragon] Great Pendragon Campaign - An Adversarial Interlude

Due to a combination of illness, travel, and bad weather, we were forced to cancel our planned session for this week. Instead, we bring you our resident adversary as she sits down to create a new character to torment the players with, and to discuss future adversarial plans. Obviously, if you're a player in this campaign, light spoilers abound. All you other listeners, please enjoy!

We will (weather and health permitting) be back to our regular schedule next week!
