We’re playing Cheat your own Adventure. We married a sign.

Hear ye, hear ye.

Hear ye, hear ye. By order of the Company of the Three Kings, a period of mourning has been decreed for one our most illustrious and notorious members known by many names including Rook the Drifter, Rook Behind You, and Rook the Bearer of the Amulet of Shadows.

We honor him for giving his life to keep the people safe from horrors we dare not even speak. He who had defied death many times. He, whose exploits fill the pages of our company book. He, who… well, kinda made us all a lot of money.

Hail Rook!

Gauntlet Portland played “World of Dungeons”!

Gauntlet Portland played “World of Dungeons”! Though the characters were paper-thin (see literal paper below), we still took time to discuss simple player flags for the session. They were:

* Player A: Player B gives me sound advice that they know I won’t take

* Player B: Player A compromises their values in order to help me succeed

Last night, The Gauntlet: Rubber City played our first session of Dungeon World. There were bird lizards, fanatical goblins, magic rocks, and an obsidian gate. We didn’t get very far into the dungeon, but there was a lot of really good roleplaying (especially on the players’ part), so who cares. Thanks to Anne Marie Blankenship, Simon Hunt, and Jeffrey Steinwachs for coming out. It was a blast!

Gauntlet Portland played Marshall Miller’s The Warren today, and for the third time I ran “The Threat of Cottontail’s Ascendancy”. A torrential downpour beat on the tin roof above us while we told a pretty dang grisly tale that ended with my first case of rabbit-on-rabbit homicide!

Anyone else backed this one? I can finally live my dream of playing a master of the universe with a missing foot.

Finally got masks to the table.

Finally got masks to the table. We were a bit awkward to start. I think a lot of that had to do with my players unfamiliarity with PbtA games. We hit our side, and had a good amount of fun. All the questions helped set the story, that was super helpful.

Our intrepid youths threw down against The Iconoclast, and sent her packing. They almost (intentionally?) let their egotistical principal die.

My favorite moment was convincing The Bull to get over his condition by claiming the glory. Evil GM points.

My players’ favorite was Rip and Tear, a brother and sister with quantum teleportation powers from the silver age. Their powers are a bit unstable, and they tend to suddenly swap places with each other.

(Note: we used the bare bones rules from way back.)

Last night, The Gauntlet: Rubber City played Jason Lutes’s Funnel World.

The Dogmen came and kidnapped (or killed) most of the villagers from the town of Lastow. A few soon-to-be heroes tracked the pack of Dogmen through the Darkwood, to their lair within the Howling Maw. Once there, they discovered that an impossibility obese creature called “The Mamma” (yet another NPC inspired by Iotho Bruno) was turning humans into dogmen by forcing them to drink her milk. Through clever thinking, they defeated the Mamma and the dogmen were transformed back into townsfolk.

It was so much fun that I forgot to take any pictures once we got started. Surprisingly, only six villagers died. Thanks to Jeffrey Steinwachs, Amelia Logan, Greg Lanum, and Simon Hunt for the great time.

Huge thanks to Jason Cordova for running a fantastic DW weekender.
