I run roleplaying games so you don't have to and to appease my megalomania. It has nothing to do with me justifying my ridiculous book collection.
Looking forward to playing and running games later today at the @illusionhorror.bsky.social. I've got #CallofCthulhuRPG and #DeltaGreen on deck.

Yes, I know, this is a ** HUGE ** shift from my regular weekly games of...Call of Cthulhu and Delta Green.

I'm a creature of habit, gimme a break.

After the terrible, very bad, no good dice rolling of our last session of #UrbanShadowsRPG, the players got a bit of a reprieve and may have discovered a clue as to what's ACTUALLY going on.

Well, most of them. Some of them just got hammered on cursed vodka. It happens.

The SNC has, finally, remembered something from a previous session that didn't involve Belgian waffles and have made shocking discoveries!

You know, from all that info they had for a year and didn't do anything with.

Remember kids, #DeltaGreen isn't just SAN loss for players but for GMs, too!

Happy Max Headroom signal broadcast intrusion day to those who celebrate!
It's my favorite day! It's the 38th anniversary of the Max Headroom signal broadcast intrusion!

1st incident lasted 25s during the 9PM news on WGN-TV in Chicago; The 2nd, 2hrs later, lasted ~90s on PBS affiliate WTTW during Dr. Who.

Have you ever had an #UrbanShadows game go so poorly due to dice rolls?

I did last Tuesday. It was absolutely bonkers how poorly everyone was rolling on 2d6. I ended up cutting the game short for everyone's sanity.

Had a pretty productive session 0/character creation last week for my upcoming #Cyberpunk Red 'mini' 'rotating cast' campaign.

Looking forward to using the base building DLC rules for some community building and seeing where it all leads in
#NightCity2045.

Not much to report from the SNC's #DeltaGreen game last week other than the 2 people murdered by a piece of art, the LAPD not believing the players excuses, some light felonious trespassing, obstruction of justice and theft.

You know, the usual.

I'm sure nothing bad will happen.

Trunk-or-treating is an insult to the gods of Halloween, who demand that children face the cold horrors of the night.

I don't typically pat myself on the back for things that happen in games but last night, I ad-libbed the pull quote of the evening for the SNC's #DeltaGreen game:

"You're thinking in a very meaty-centric way."

You try explaining hypergeometry to bags of mostly water. It's not as easy as it looks!

We didn't play #DeltaGreen due to PAXAUS but we did play #TrophyRPG Dark instead.

Sybil and company, Desire, Sebastian Stan/Gelatin/Jello Shots, and Winda had a solid time. Of course, those weren't their character names but it had been a LONG day for me plus Angel's Envy plus general goofiness.

The TNC has managed to stop the infernal assassin from killing one of their own in #UrbanShadowsRPG by banishing him back to the hell from whence he game.

He's now texting one of the PCs looking for book recommendations because he's very bored in this particular hell.

Due to player absence during a key plot point/exposition dump, we didn't play #DeltaGreen this past Saturday. I need to stop writing myself into corners like this.

Instead, we broke our the Jackbox Party games for shenanigans which led to playing Codenames into the wee hours.
September 30, 2025 at 4:22 PM
Always a good time in #UrbanShadowsRPG when you continually describe the infernal being as horrible and yet the players STILL are shocked when he turns on them.

Remember, wearing glasses, being well read and drinking tea doesn't immediately make you the good guy.

I mean, look at the British.

Finally got to continue the #DeltaGreen campaign and realized, probably too late, that the players don't really understand how unpleasant a taser really is. If they did, maybe they'd have their characters taser each other less often.
September 16, 2025 at 12:09 AM
Due to player absence, we ended up doing the #DeltaGreen one-shot "Sentinels of Twilight" instead of the usual campaign.

One PC fatality ( due to a failed attempt to deal with Brandon ) and one car accident later, much creepy fun was had!

Gotta love randomly running stuff at the last minute!
August 17, 2025 at 5:47 AM
Infernal honorable assassins that you just can't help but love, quantum gnomes ignoring city politics and a nasally vampire prince with a backdrop of the Aurora Borealis.

Another day in the #UrbanShadowsRPG.
August 8, 2025 at 10:56 PM
Don't you just love a #DeltaGreen game where the PCs get suspicious of one of the other PCs and totally miss the actual PC they need to worry about?

I know I do!

The #SaturdayNightCrew might need more tinfoil for their hats pretty soon...
