In my last post I mentioned I was starting a new show streaming on twitch - that show is Dragonfly, and after just three episodes (which you can check out here) we have a special side quest episode coming up today, in collaboration with Sabotage the DM, who is celebrating their one year streaming anniversary with a week of new content. My incredible DM, Filly, who runs numerous campaigns I’m a part of at this point, has been tasked with running many games for them this week, and today our show, Dragonfly, is going to meet a few of their folks out on a distant planet in space. It’s sure to be a good time and a great opportunity for storytellers across an ocean to get to collaborate!
New project alert! Starting this Sunday March 28th at 6pm and every Sunday moving forward you can catch me as Escher Maximore in Kings of Neon, a weekly stream of the role playing game, City of Mist:
In a world not unlike our own there is a City. A City of Mist. A place of stark juxtapositions. Opulent towers of glass & steel looming over dark alleys and run down warehouses. Awash in the neon lights of the modern age. The mist which permeates it is more than just a gloomy fog diffusing the electric lights and hiding the many sins which take place here. It's a conduit to something more. And a sedative to keep the masses placated. It's the red pill & the blue.
Some few folk of this place find themselves tapped into mysterious forces from beyond. Myths of legend, lore, & literature infuse their powers in these people. The players are among these few, everyday people imbued with the mythic properties of legendary characters from folklore, mythology, & literature. The kid who delivers the papers can fight & fly & crow because he believes he can and when he sprinkles his gang of lost boys with glitter they can too! They fight the fight against that terrible condition that is growing up! The old lady in the apartment upstairs who cat sits for everyone hears the secrets in their whispers and sends them out into the world to skulk & spy for her. Those who raise her ire regret it quickly for she is infused with the mythic strength of Bastest the warrior goddess.
Meanwhile, the mist obscures these people's truths from the monotonous drones of banality who populate the rest of the diverse neon metropolis. The Sleepers are everyone else living within this world of gods & monsters but totally ignorant of the truth. The mist conceals, confuses, & conspires to keep them asleep in their waking lives while forces unknowable drive others to acts of heroism & evil around them.
Our game, Kings of Neon will follow a group of 5 character who all awoke at the same time while they were at a local library. They're trying to unravel the mysteries of their city & themselves. Who they are & what they can do you'll have to turn in to find out. Click the photo to head to twitch!
