Necropolitans, episode 33: That's not how it works

Uncomfortable furniture! Mysterious domes! Peculiar mosaics that encode pieces of music in visuo-tactile form! Forbidden eldritch entities! Secrets of a long-vanished species are revealed as the Necropolitans explore the Nameless City in Episode 033: That's not how it works.

The repercussions of Jaal's decision to telepathically contact the star-spawn slowly build. We experimented with the Pathfinder sanity rules for this, and they were okay but not amazing, I think was the overall feeling? In any case, the whole Jaal-Iris situation is going to get messier before it gets better.

Playtesting Invisible Fires

With the Whartson Hall crew, I'm running through a full playtest of my new modern weird mystery, Invisible Fires. So far things are going pretty well; they haven't run into any major roadblocks or immediately solved the mystery. Better yet, even the players who were leery of an investigation-heavy scenario with little action have been enthusiastic, which is high praise indeed.

You can catch up on their progress - as well as the previous adventure, The Wolf Who Cried Boy - over at Tekeli.li if you don't mind spoilers for something I intend to publish this year.
