A fun, if slightly silly, session this week. Culminated in a street chase through the Nightmarket and under the rail tracks. I ran that using a handful of clocks, various set piece elements counting down or up, to try an simulate the obstacles. For example, mid-way through every failure brought the careening cabs closer to the pedestrian bridge that was being raised. When the clock filled the bridge was up and a couple of chasers went into the drink. I don’t even know where to start on the Heat for that one.
Anyhow, it pushed me to get to the cab-pulling goat mentioned in the book. I’ve grown to like these guys for the occasional tension breaking moment of levity before going right back into the ghost-filled cellar.
Awesome once again.
I’d missed the goat reference in the book, and I like the scale represented here. I would guess their braying is as good as any horn, bell or whistle.
Ok, there goes my dismissing of canonical use of goats in Blades! 😉
So good!
Goats racing is my Lurk’s vice and he’s going to love it ^__^
Are these write ups all unofficial?
These are so good. Might try to do something similar for my group’s phasing monkey spiders and trained Tycheros demonic lizard-vulture thing.
Neal Dalton Goodness no. Several of the critters are in the Quickstart, some are me filling in the cracks for our game. Duskvol was just too charming to me to NOT draw some beasties.
Galen Pejeau​ loving this. Goats just became really rad. 😆
Well they should be canon.
Those Cabbies have a nice non-hagfish way to dispose of bodies.
Matt Machell You had me at phasing monkey spiders.
