Does your group have an unhealthy fascination with golems and warforged and maybe the tin man from Wizard of Oz?

A new whisper special ability:

Prosthesis Fitter. You can use Tinker to build mechanical limbs and organs, and Attune to draw a host’s spirit out into the limb. Once this is done, the host can operate the prosthesis and even have some rudimentary sensation in it. Building a prosthesis tends to be a 4 segment clock, fitting a single roll.

Is your Blades in the Dark game not horrible enough? I’m here to help.

Some amazing fodder for any modern hacks you might run (pp 19-38 in particular).

Some amazing fodder for any modern hacks you might run (pp 19-38 in particular). (Actual criminal complaint for a bizarre home invasion/kidnapping that occurred earlier in the year – includes essentially a livejournal-esque dump of the perpetrators describing their gang growing from basic car heists, selecting safe houses, etc).

We start a game for BitD.

We start a game for BitD. As we have quite large group of 6 players, and while duplicate playbooks is an option, is there any playtest version for The Leech and/or The Spider anywhere? Atm. one alchemist/bomb maker is going to be build on Whisper, but The Leech might be better.

These are my visual inspirations for my BitD Hack Red Skies.

So after a way to many week hiatus, I finally got to run another session of Desks in the Dark (my hack of bitd).

So after a way to many week hiatus, I finally got to run another session of Desks in the Dark (my hack of bitd). The thing is I completely forgot about resistance rolls for like half the session (I know they have been changed in v3 but for various reasons I’m not using the updates, at least at this time). Instead PC’s just took consequences as they came at them, AND. IT. WAS. FANTASTIC. Screw resisting effects, it’s way more fun for PC’s to take what’s coming at them, and it flows way better. I totally want to cut resisting consequences out of my game now, but I’ll need to think about what to do with traits and stress. I think the count down to PC’s being forced out of the game is important, but why give up the awesomeness I stumbled upon. Also, were tiger prep school students who blow up mech bays as an eyeless guy removes a fight between rotc students and giant spiked mechanics worms who spit liquid gummy candy from existence., because these thing happen.
