S01 E18 - Ironsworn: Starforged - How Many Tickles Does It Take To Make An Octopus Laugh?

Good morning, afternoon, or evening and welcome to One Guy One Roll, the solo RPG podcast. I am super excited to announce that this is officially the 20th episode I have released for the podcast! It really feels like a big milestone and I certainly intend to make hundreds more. Things have luckily begun to stabilize a little bit in my personal life and I am hopefully going to be able to return to releasing episodes twice a week instead of just once. As always, thank you very much for listening to the podcast! Your continued support means everything to me. As usual, the next paragraph is going to be devoted to a summary of Episode 18, so if you wish to avoid any potential spoilers, just skip down to the next paragraph! Something lurks within the lower levels of the Second Chance, something that was not invited aboard the spaceship, something that does not belong in our reality. This strange 'alien' creature appears to have been drawn toward them in order to drain all the energy aboard the craft, including that of Nikora and Petra. The two of them end up facing off against the strange translucent creature as Petra manages to arm herself with  an unconventional weapon and Nikora always has his trusty shotgun 'Stubbs' nearby. Most of the rest of the episode is devoted to determining the outcome of this dangerous encounter with the strange creature, of which you will have to listen to the podcast in order to determine the outcome! Our episode finally comes to a close with Nikora once again having to make tough decisions due a lack of oxygen and being forced to redefine his sworn vow to Petra in order to convince her to go along with his plan. Thank you so very much for taking the time to listen to the episode! Everyone's continued interest and support helps to keep me inspired to create new content despite real life having been a little chaotic over the last couple months.
