Meeting Notes This morning my back was killing me. I think it’s because of my chair at home. Still, I limped into work and got on the call with Rich. Children of the Revolution hit the Red List stretch goal! We’re really pleased at how the fans pulled together to make this happen, and Rich … Read more
The Introductory chapter for Children of the Revolution is up for review over at Google Docs or Google Drive or Google Donks or whatever it is right now. I’ve turned commenting on so you can leave a remark in-line as opposed to appended to the bottom of the text like you’d have to do here. … Read more
Roderigo al-Dakhil, Lich of the Dead City For all the time he has existed, Roderigo al-Dakhil best remembers his few bright shining years as one of the architects of fate. His first touch of magic almost broke him. A Castilian soldier in the army fighting to reclaim Cadiz, he’d drilled for the day when he encountered … Read more
Are you ready for some Brujah? Here’s Colm Olliver, a nasty dude who would probably be Clan Honeybadger if such a thing existed. I like that Colm’s history is intertwined with an interesting location in the existing Vampire setting (Carfax Abbey, the gothic Anarch nightclub in London) and that some cornerstone musical elements of the … Read more
Hi, gang. Last week, we talked a bit about how magic suffuses the Arisen, from their fleshly shells to the occult wonders they can work in the living world. This week, we expound on magic in Mummy. Magic as Lifeforce Wherever life exists—or even the potential for life—mystical energy bubbles up from the cosmic firmament … Read more
Meeting Notes Note: The picture actually has nothing to do with the meeting. It’s just a funny picture of my old pug, Vinny, covered in $20 bills. He’s pretty gangsta. I’m settling into the new office in Decatur. Because I pre-planned, I got internet access and my desk all set up before anyone else, which … Read more
And the winner, with a grand total of two people suggesting their names: the Glass Walkers! Which is an interesting group either way you look at it, because also they’re one of the few tribes that gets a bonus camp Gift list (now with corrected spelling. I hope). Glass Walkers Many Glass Walker Gifts involve … Read more
Commenter Adam suggested that we include the character Dastur Anosh, Black Hand Seraph (referenced in Caine’s Chosen), Assamite antitribu, and Kindred assumed to be extremely dead. Well, that sounds like a fine revolutionary character to me. Joe Carriker worked on him, and Dastur Anosh ends up being, through some clever crafting by Joe, part of … Read more
Meeting Notes Rich dives right into serious business — no jocularity this week. CCP is moving offices from Stone Mountain to Decatur this weekend. As such, we’ll be without email from Friday afternoon to Saturday afternoon or so. The website should be unaffected (aside from the wikis, which are locked during the move). Rich asked … Read more
Hi, gang. Last week, we presented the basics of the sahu — a mummy’s magical reconstruction of form — and this week we’ll be wrapping up our discussion of the sahu with a few thoughts about the overall occult context of the Arisen condition (again courtesy of Malcolm, who helped me design the nuts and … Read more
