Players: Andy: Kieron, Oscar: David, Willow and Cynthia: Maria, Kay: Ethan Game: Unincorporated and...

  3. Vigil Creek Nature Preserve 2

    The continuing story of a group of semi-competent park employees and their hunt for a mysterious creature that might be an alligator, but definitely is not a bear because there are no bears here. This is Florida's only bear-free park. YOU HEAR THAT, SAMMY? (Also, I completely screwed up last week...

  5. Thirsty Sword Lesbians: Queen of Thieves 5

    The sheriff comes seeking revenge, but she’s a minor threat compared to the destruction unleashed by a simple nature witch with a cursed sword. Meanwhile, Jenna gets caught up in a dramatic sword fight over a waterfall, and Asheara’s destiny is about to become clear, but first she has to not…

  6. Thirsty Sword Lesbians: Queen of Thieves 4

    The trio continue their preparations for battle... by going to a hidden cave and digging up some obviously cursed items!

  7. Thirsty Sword Lesbians: Queen of Thieves 3

    The heroes make a foolproof plan to deal with the sheriff and get the previous generation of witches and bandits on board. Yes, I know the title has very little to do with the story. Queen of Thieves was what I called the series when I first listed it on the Gauntlet, with the idea that it was...

  8. Thirsty Sword Lesbians: Queen of Thieves 2

    In this session, everyone fails social rolls. Asheara sees portents and prophesies, Jenna talks to ghosts, and Mia talks to someone she shouldn't. The new sheriff wants revenge and maybe to take over their village, but who has time to worry about that, when there's infinite social awkwardness to...

  9. Thirsty Sword Lesbians: Queen of Thieves 1

    In this actual play of Thirsty Sword Lesbians, we create our outlaw camp turned legitimate-ish village, meet our heroes: two witches and a Chosen One with a mysterious destiny and no magical skills; and watch them solve very mundane problems in the most extra ways possible. Cast: Chris, Kristen,...

  10. Unincorporated: Paranormal Romance 3

    Mark joins the game, playing the ghost! Mia, Onyx, and Sammy fumble through awkward misunderstandings and even more awkward revelations as they prepare for a ritual to... get rid of the ghost? Somehow? Oh, whatever, we'll figure it out when we get there. It'll be fine. Cast: Maria, Puckett…

  12. Unincorporated: Paranormal Romance 1

    Maria, Puckett, and Ethan play Unincorporated, a GMless game about small-town drama. Onyx the romance writer, Mia the lovesick hacker, and Sammy the pragmatic handywoman relive their youth by getting drunk on cheap wine and breaking into a creepy old house at night. What could go wrong? Oh. That....
