Glow in the Dark: Robots and Monkeys Session 0
Had a good survivor/tribe creation session with Thomas Berton and Jason Eley last night for my Relics tribe playtest! The as-yet-unnamed settlement has sprouted up around Jason’s Leftover’s spaceship crash site. Thomas’ Shark, Tuesday Grace, spun a web of lies to her small group of refugees about being an engineer and knowing all about the World That Was, so we’ve got a charlatan and an actual Charlton Heston-style astronaut-out-of-time. Logan Shoup will join us in 2 weeks as well for our starting situation (and finalizing names for stuff).
The guys really went for all the robot choices when it came to contacts and factions, and their settlement has a farm, bootstrapped by seeds stolen from the Ape Empire’s fertile valley.
From a playtest perspective, I’ve got a lot of conceptual blanks for Relics that, while I’ve got lots of touchstones in my head, I’m not sure which ones deserve to be put to paper yet. We’ll find out.
