Hack The Planet Wired Crew: Blue Oolong (2 of 4)
Episode 2 has the crew evading the Tracers, taking turf, and figuring out what their actual product is. Episode 1 recap: In the Roots District of Shelter 1: a small gang of wired vice dealers are using the Blue Oolong Tea Shop as the front for their new operation. Customers of the Blue Oolong can glimpse the as yet unnamed gang meeting in the back room through the gently swaying bead curtain. Silver - a grizzled ex-corporate mercenary, thin and silver-haired. J5 - a washed out former child TV star, mad inventor, and saboteur. Whisper - a hacker of storms, a gangly traveler. Haboob - a caravan guard and bandit, born in the desert - hooded and veiled. We cut to the crew emerging from a smoldering conch-shell shaped tent, high up in the skyline of The Basin District. An Act of God is in progress: a building-sized whirlwind of sand and fire. They crab-walk through fierce winds across the rooftop, joined by ropes, seeking to deploy their windsock device - and extract rare components from the heart of the storm. Components that can be cooked and modified into the "good stuff": highly efficacious and valuable drugs. The fire is an unforeseen complication to an otherwise flawless plan, the sandstorm gathering up the flames as they burst to life inside broken buildings. These flames must be doused before the storm can be tapped without damaging the fragile distillation equipment within the windsock. The crew bust into the water mains and J5 employs a device - some kind of field generator - creating a waterwhip funneling into the whirlwind. The flames hiss and steam and they emerge from a hot cloud of mist with their device and the components. Silver guides the confused and panicked crew through the swirling sands and mists, past giant icebergs set to rest and drain in the heart of The Basin, along backstreets and alleyways: back to The Roots, and the Blue Oolong Tea Shop. To safety. As the storm dissipates, we flash back to the scene of the job. In amongst the broken buildings and ruptured water mains, a team of Tracers are combing over the site with forensic attention to detail: scanning all surfaces, and collecting samples. This will likely have severe consequences, clean water is rare and valuable, and the corporate congress does not take wanton waste of resources lightly.

Hack The Planet Wired Crew: Blue Oolong (1 of 4)
Alpha test of Hack The Planet, a cyberpunk, climate fiction Forged in the Dark game. We are using the character sheets on roll20 so there's some confusion sometimes since some actions correspond to Blades actions and we say the wrong ones. When I last facilitated Blades it was playtested version 1.4 or 1.5 so if there are any inconsistencies those will be ironed out next time as I move away from writing setting and begin to write the mechanics and get back into the swing of GMing Blades. The crew type is The Wired (Hawker-type crew for Hack The Planet). They decided to take the starting move where they can, after surmounting an Act of God, distill it into something they can make some sort of product with. We spent most of the session creating a crew and choosing playbooks, etc. Recording when we were ready to play so it is a bit short compared to normal session lengths (3 hours). But manage to get some good bit of action in! I always play with a Pinterest board as well and it is referenced in the AP. Here is the link to that: https://pin.it/s4wpr7atdeuhfk Lu referenced this picture for his character: https://pin.it/aj63p425earpz5 This picture is what is referenced for Shelter 1, though this appears to be a fantasy city it works well to imagine how the structures are similar. https://pin.it/ci7xsyvpw55s2z The start of the tornado: https://www.pinterest.ca/pin/84301824259081283/ The fire afterward: https://pin.it/6jdvfmrxlt7l4k

Renraku Arcology Shutdown (4 of 4)
The year is 2060. Magic is as real as the mean streets of the mega-sprawls. Corporations call the shots while nailing each other through covert operatives in cutthroat competition. Flesh and machines have merged—the street samurai with his smartguns and impossibly fast reflexes, the decker who can plug his own brain into the worldwide computer network, the rigger who links his mind to his vehicle and takes hairpin turns at fantastic speeds. And you're a part of this wired world, where corporate skyscrapers glitter over the dark shadows they cast. You live in those shadows. You're a shadowrunner—a street operative. You may be human or troll, dwarf or elf. You may throw fireballs, pull out your trusty Uzi or slice through computer security with a program as elegant and deadly as a stiletto. No matter what, you get the job done. You're a shadowrunner—a professional. You don't just survive in the shadows—you thrive there...for now.

GCL: All of Their Strengths (2 of 2)
The city has a secret food chain, a hidden game of predator and prey playing out in every alley, every shadowy corner and bangin’ nightclub. The Kindred - vampires, werewolves, and a hundred others - hunt humans for food and pleasure. They have ruled the night for centuries, but the game is about to change. There’s a new predator in town, and it feeds on jerks. Hybrids, born of mixed Kindred lineages, but stronger than any of them, and twice as cool. ----------- All of Their Strengths is an action-packed role-playing game of tinted sunglasses, silver-lined swords, and ultra-violet bullets. Take on the role of the Hybrids waging a secret war on the Kindred. Play as a werewolf-witch, a ghost-mummy, or the always classic half-human, half-vampire. Grab your throwing stars, put on your PVC long-coat, and touch up your sweet tribal tats. The War of Shadows is waiting.
