Gaming Update (Late Oct 2008)
Oct. 22nd, 2008 07:10 pmYes, I know, I have not been too good with these but such is life.
We have been trying out John Wick's new game, Houses of the Blooded. An interesting game both system-wise and stylistically, as it is designed for tragedy, epic tragedy but still tragedy. Characters are part of the Ven nobility, a mythical race and culture, and are competing for power, glory and a thousand other things. My character is a poet and rake of the House of the Fox, charming and brilliant, he is also addicted to life's pleasures, all of them. We have only played two sessions so far, so we are still working out how the system plays and what we can do with it. I am having fun so far though.
Alternating with that at the moment is
nemloen's Temple of Elemental Evil, yes the old Gygaxian D&D adventure, which we are playing with a hack (variant) of the FATE 3.0 rules. It has been a great deal of fun, high silliness and wacky action abounds.
My Sea of Stars game continues ever so slowly, I just have not found the inspiration needed to frame the closing of the current arc. Hopefully soon.
