Whenever someone tells me Fear of a Black Dragon doesn’t count as an OSR podcast, I roll my eyes so fucking hard.
Whenever someone tells me Fear of a Black Dragon doesn’t count as an OSR podcast, I roll my eyes so fucking hard. News flash: even though Tom McGrenery and I may not fit into the typical OSR player profile (whatever the fuck that even means) and even though our show focuses on aspects of play and culture beyond just “What do I have to roll to hit this monster?” there is a really strong chance WE PLAY MORE OSR MODULES THAN YOU DO.

The newest episode of Discern Realities is here!
The newest episode of Discern Realities is here! The conversations in this one are really fantastic, some of the best we have had to date. In the first segment, I share a bunch of wide-ranging thoughts on a new campaign, including the use of Johnstone Metzger’s Class Warfare. In the second segment, we talk about Oli Jeffery and Rob Bullen’s Alford Soultaker AP. The third segment is about creating a play culture that embraces adversity. In the fourth segment, we read another contest entry. In the final segment, we have a really fun, action-packed bit of play with St. Evelyn the White.
Enjoy!
We’d like to do some crowdsourcing for the Miscellany in Codex – Love 2.
We’d like to do some crowdsourcing for the Miscellany in Codex – Love 2. The Miscellany is called “Three-Dozen Men Who Need to Be Rescued.” Submissions need to be a single sentence, or 2-3 short sentences. By submitting here, you’re agreeing to let us use it (you’ll get a credit on the issue).
Your men who need to be rescued can slot into any genre, but you need to include the following pieces of information: Their name, their current predicament, and what will happen if they are not rescued in time.
Here are some examples:
“Prince Lomaran, Son of King Lomar, is presently being held captive by the pirate queen Jalussa the Merciless. If King Lomar refuses to yield the throne to Jalussa, she will sell Lomaran to an emperor from a faraway land who enjoys adding exotic treasures to his harem.”
“Johnny Devayne, a pampered A-lister who accidentally stumbled into the middle of a real-life arms deal in Tunisia while filming the third entry in his spy thriller series, Dead 2 Rights. If Johnny is killed, not only will his millions of adoring fans mourn him, but his newborn daughter, Chrysanthemum Starlight Devayne, will spend countless melancholy hours getting to know her daddy as best she can through DVD, Blu-Ray, or Video On Demand.”
The final episode of Song of the Milk-White Putrescence is here!
The final episode of Song of the Milk-White Putrescence is here! This has been a really enjoyable series to re-visit, and we hope you have found it entertaining and enlightening. If you have any thoughts you’d like to share about Song, we’d love to hear them in the comments.
I’m also including a link to Episode 10 (which I don’t think i shared here last week): http://www.gauntlet-rpg.com/we-hunt-the-keepers/song-of-the-milk-white-putrescence-10-brothers-of-the-silver-ocean
Thanks to the players in this series: Gerrit Reininghaus Fraser Simons David LaFreniere and Lowell Francis. And extra special thanks to Fraser for putting this show together.
Enjoy!

Good news from beyond the grave! My spoopy 2-player 1-shot storytelling game, Dead Friend: A Game of Necromancy, is now available as pay-what-you-want on DriveThruRPG. You each play the role of a friend, one living and one dead. The script follows the dramatic structure of a necromancy ritual, and you use Tarot cards (or regular cards) to randomize story prompts. Enjoy!
