Wow. We had forty-seven comments on last week’s blog commentary about my experience in a game at Fear the Con where I attempted to use my character’s Persuasion skill on another player character. It spawned a forum discussion and commentary from the guys at Kicked in the Dicebags (they’re wrong) as well as Happy Jacks […]

Dour Puritans who fight the forces of supernatural evil with the sheer power of their faith and a vicious scowl are not exactly my cup of tea. If anything, I am a much bigger fan of beefy barbarians who battle dark wizards and seduce lusty wenches. So, when given the choice of Robert E. Howard’s […]
If you’re familiar with how Nine Inch Nails works then the idea behind Pain should be easy to grasp. Hypocrisy frontman Peter Tägtgren is the sole member of Pain, similar to Trent Reznor and NIN. NIN is also a good comparison for sound, though Pain has a bit heavier metal sound. Pain is somewhere between […]
At Fear the Con last week, I had the good fortune to play in Ross Payton’s Age of Masks Wild Talents game. Age of Masks is a setting not unlike that of Watchmen. It is a grim and gritty modern era world where those wearing the cape of the superhero are anything but heroic. Remember […]
A few weeks back I decided I wouldn’t just blog about music I like, I’d blog about any music I come across. While that time it was clearly for an inside joke, this time I’m serious. I don’t really like O’Death but I’ve listened to a half-dozen tracks and figured someone else might like it. […]

Crafting an rpg into a readable story got trickier when Casey joined up with other Player Characters (which she’ll be doing this week and for most of the rest of the series). The other PCs all have their own voices, their own thoughts and motivations, but for the Tuesday Tales series all their moves had […]

“…was able to control the route between Asia and Europe, as well as the passage from the Mediterranean Sea to the Euxinos Pontus. Don’t you think?” It would seem that only a moment had passed since Casey’s journey into Other Memory began. Camille had not noticed her absence. Falco had. There was a disapproving glint […]
