It turns out that, in the credits to the recently-released God-Machine Chronicle, we were one author shy: Wood Ingham, who wrote the creepy-as-hell fiction bits interspersed throughout the book (the series of letters between William Dear, Dear Mary, Jon, and Stephen), got left out. This one’s entirely my fault, and I have no idea how it … Read more
As you probably know, it’s Demon: The Descent. So what now? Well, Rich gives updates on the general state of things every Monday over on the aptly named Monday Meeting Blog, but he has a lot of irons in the fire, so maybe you’d appreciate a little more direct information about Demon? Sure thing. Let’s talk a … Read more
So, I’m sitting here writing this up on my new tablet that I went with instead of a laptop (for those regular readers who remember my indecision on that subject a bunch of months ago) because my cable and Internet are both down and that inevitable eventuality is a big part of why I got … Read more
Monday Eddy was sick, so we didn’t have our meeting. Tuesday, he was OK, so we did meet over lunch, but then I, overwhelmed by a wave of post-Exalted 3rd Kickstarter whoop-ass, just lagged out. I’m pretty sure the after effects are over, but boy, a month of that crazy Kickstarter really just drained me. … Read more

Wednesday, we played our fourth and probably penultimate session in How an Angel Dies, the SAS for Demon: The Dysphagia. If you want a refresher, last session is here. So, the first thing we did was spend some experiences. Michelle bought the Fungible Knowledge Embed, and then plugged that into her Cipher (formerly known as Interlock Matrix). Her … Read more
Now I’m up to the last chapter, all of the material we’re converting to V20 from previous Vampire: The Masquerade books. When completed, this chapter will flow together, but right now it’s in two chunks. This first chunk is by Jason, and covers Thaumaturgy Paths and Rituals. There’s a distinct Tremere slant, and a couple … Read more
(This update is reposted from the Kickstarter page: Update 36: One Day of Glory Left) How could this month have flown past so fast? One day left for this amazing, record-breaking, KS-busting, crazy fun-house of a Kickstarter! We’ll be saying this again, but its never too early: we are awed by the support and devotion … Read more
After a look at various vampire factions large and small, it’s time to dig into something that all vampires can hate: those that sell their souls to the infernal. This covers infernalism, how vampires make contracts, and the groups in the Sabbat and the Camarilla that hunt them down. Ree did a solid job on … Read more
