Yesterday we began Urban Shadows: The Violet Crown. This first session was largely character introductions, but we managed to get in a few exciting scenes, too. Our story is based in Austin, TX, using “A Violet Crown, Steeped in Blood,” from Codex – Blood, as a jumping off point for the story.

Thanks to the players for a (very) bloody good time! Michael X. Heiligenstein Phillip Wessels and steven watkins

Here is a link to the final session of The Path to Dim Carcosa. I’ll come right out and say it: this series, and this session in particular, is some of the best Dungeon World I have had the privilege to participate in. There is no such thing as Dungeon World Academy, but this session is pretty fucking close. It has it all:

-Brisk, deadly combat

-Two visits to the Black Gate

-Some nice custom moves

-Light but engaging dungeon crawl elements

-TERRIFIC social conflict

-Intriguing party dynamics

-Pacing, pacing, pacing–look how we stick this landing and be IN AWE

Haha, ok, enough bragging. Seriously, though, it was a cool session. You can check out the other three sessions (and the whole We Hunt the Keepers! saga) on the following playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL26DVDSsqVz6VlgBJpGA6qp7wCb2OydB7

Big thanks to the awesome players: David LaFreniere Fraser Simons Christo Meid and Tony Hahn.

I’m writing a short piece for the Discern Realities Annual about my Labyrinth Move, which I know has been adapted by a number of people. If you have ever done an adaptation of it, would you mind posting the text here in a comment? Thanks!
