We started in July 2011. Can’t claim the full seven years as we had a three-year break. But in 2011 I wasn’t married and didn’t have two kids so it feels like another lifetime entirely.

Session 203, Part One - Needlewire Parley Soundtrack: On the way up to the mine, Brakken warned them that they were being followed. After concentrating for a moment, he said that he did not think the minds he had sensed were fully human, nor were they animalistic. Whenever they slowed, their...

Long time no hear. Welcome back, Colmarr!

I think having players who hate technology as much as their characters do would give the campaign an additional driving force. Remember that they are fighting on the side of the druidical, magical Risur, whose king has been tempted to toy with technology with potentially catastrophic results...

Session 202, Part Two - Pemberton Industries, Axis Division On their way to Axis Island, they reprised their philosophical debate with Rutger Smith from five years earlier. Kieran Sentacore joined in too. Both had once been firm adherents of the Panoply and remained sympathetic to the politics...

Session 202, Part One Farewell to Asrabey Moments after the titan’s withdrawal, the Coaltongue returned from outer space, plunging into the sea and causing an immense tidal wave. Though dramatic, it soon settled. Korrigan was troubled. While they had drifted through space, his son had...

Session 201, Part Three - Bloody Tidings Quratulain and Rumdoom went toe-to-toe with Asrabey, until She Who Writhes clipped Rumdoom with another titanic tentacle, giving Asrabey the chance to make a break for it, running along one of her enormous limbs. From the pool of blood around Uru, a...

Session 201, Part Two - Seriously – YOU’RE Betraying Us?!? It was evident that the ritual he had used to hijack Beshela’s communion had left him in control of the titan: At his command, she unleashed her most terrifying weapon – a deadly ululation that had driven hundreds of sailors mad, and...

Session 201, Part One - Waves of Rage Soundtrack And so, without the support of their king, the unit charged across the dark choppy waters to fight the titan She Who Writhes. Fortunately, their goal was not to defeat her (for only a regent of Risur had ever succeeded in doing so) but to...

Session 200, Part Three What next? Rumdoom was keen to do just exactly that – to help the Deep Ones and reclaim his wife. He had failed to track down Grandis Komanov (thus far) and failed to retrieve the Stone of Not, but perhaps he could capitalise on the aboleth’s fear of the gidim, and...

Session 200, Part Two - Meanwhile, Around the World… Rumdoom was waiting for them back in Flint. He had been busy: First of all, he had used the linked portals his followers had established to travel to Trekhom. There he found that his once-thriving community of Rumschatologists had...

Did your version include the lines, "Ask him if the Seal came with a warranty." "Even if it did, I'm pretty sure the Ob have voided it."?

Session 200, Part One - Toteth Topec DM's Note: Regular readers should not worry that I have skipped one-hundred-and-thirty episodes. I realised just before the last session that we finished our original run on session 130, and with this being session 70 of the reboot, we were now at a...

That is exactly what I was thinking - a redefinition. Especially the underground parts. Fabulous idea. Thanks!

BTW, RangerWickett, what benefits, if any do you think this should accrue? I'm thinking very few until the end of the campaign (assuming Uru does not want to leave the unit and ensconce himself in the mountains straight away). But would he enjoy any of the benefits of nascent titanhood before...

Session 69, Part Two – A New Power Arises Later, while the rest of the unit took part in a riotous celebration in Favela – surrounded by the children they had rescued and feted by their adoring families – Uru slipped away, drawn by strange echoes from all around him which the others did not...

It really was. And it was one of those moments when random events, dictated by dice rolls, end up tying the story up with a neat little bow, as if they had been planned all along. The victory was all the more sweet because it was hard-earned too. It really did look like the group would have to...

Session 69, Part One – Curse Ye! Soundtrack When Korrigan bolted back to grab Kai, he took Quratulain by surprise. So the voices in her head sharing the ‘plan’ were real? Korrigan found himself beset by the baleful auras of Glower, Guffaw, Tremble and Pout. To rid himself of them, he...

Session 68, Part Four – All’s Well Down Here Bedtime, children. Please, please hush. You don’t want granny waking up. -Common Risuri Nursery Rhyme Folk tales tell of a child who disobeyed his parents and kept breaking plates, windows, and everything else he could. His parents, on the edge of...
