  • Blades in the Dark: Dreaming Cities (Session 1)

    Blades in the Dark: Dreaming Cities (Session 1)
    Aug 14 2024
    The first play session of our new quarterly series of Blades in the Dark, set in a city the players build in our session zero. We begin with a reintroduction of the PCs (since that got cut off last time). We then do a little work establishing the revolutionary crew. After a look at the daily lives of our protagonists, we move them quickly into a mission. They have to rescue an escaped strike-leader from the hands of a rival gang. There's an explosion.

  • Blades in the Dark: Dreaming Cities (Session 0)

    Blades in the Dark: Dreaming Cities (Session 0)
    Aug 14 2024
    Session zero for a new quarterly campaign of Blades in the Dark. We begin with set up and safety. Then, using an alternate toolset we build the world, our city, and the factions in play. In the end we create an island city, with a variety of weird happenings. We move to character creation, relationships, and how they first met, at which point I forget to restart the recording and so that's cut off. Characters are reintroduced at the start of the next session.

    SWS: AWBO Jakku 05
    Aug 10 2024
    It used to be better, of course, it did. In the golden age of the High Republic, when there was enough to eat and enough hope, when people could lift their eyes and see beyond the horizon, beyond the day. Children were born happy and grew up rich.

    Now that’s not what we’ve got. Now we’ve got Jakku.

    A harsh desert world, Jakku is a lawless place that’s home to thieves, outlaws, and refugees. During the final years of the Galactic Civil War, Jakku was the site of a secret Imperial research base and served as a jumping-off point for warships heading into the Unknown Regions. The Empire made a last stand above the frontier planet, leading to a pitched battle between rebel and Imperial fleets. Jakku’s sandy wastes are now littered with gigantic wrecks, and newly created townships are full of desperate scavengers who head into the desert searching for parts that can be salvaged and sold.

    And you, who are you? This is what we’ve got, yes. What are you going to make of it?
