For many adventurers, the quest begins in a tavern. For these six individuals, the tavern IS their quest! This brings us to "The Hydra House!"

Built along one of the region's most heavily traveled roads, combining the services of a full tavern and inn, The Hydra House sees a healthy profit from Adventurers and Merchants alike. But what happens when shipments go missing and supplies run thin? How long will The Hydra House enjoy its reputation once it has nothing to offer but beds?

A week out from the nearest city in either direction, it seems the world itself is determined to call them to adventure one way or another. After all, those shipments are pre-paid!

Requirements: Discord for voice and Roll20 for the virtual tabletop. Pathfinder 2nd Edition, using pre-generated 1st Level characters.

As the heroes of Scarsbrooke you have made quite a name for yourselves. Between fending off marauders, negotiating with a goblin warren, and destroying dangerous relics, you have brought a period of peace to a once unstable area. You can see the admiration in their eyes and never pay for drinks at the Frothy Tankard. Then a stranger arrives with another threat, a cult that bends the will of those they capture to their own nefarious plans. They want to bolster their numbers and they have their eyes set on Scarsbrooke.

There is a traveling circus under the Hollow Hills. It travels by moonlight, small wagons creaking in the night silence. It travels lost roads. It travels the night world and the day world, fairyland and the living earth, and places otherwise, and no border can keep it. It has mysteries to pose, drama to perform, it has music, juggling, acts of death-defying peril, pratfall comedy. It has dangerous secrets to tell.

You are its performers and its crew. You're fairy kind and human kind. You're the circus, and the circus is you. You travel through fairyland and the mortal world, performing as you choose. Wherever you perform, you change: you change the seasons, you change the fortunes of those you perform for, you change their hearts. You change yourselves. This is the game: we change.

Requirements: Discord.

This RPG uses "Powered by the Apocalypse," which in this case means that it has playbooks for the players, a system of moves based on rolling and summing two dice, a GM, and a "play to find out" approach to prep and plotting. We will be using the X-card, lines and veils, and the open door policy for the main safety tools.

A Powered by the Apocalypse (PbtA) tabletop role-playing game where you play the cast of the world's most dramatic and exciting telenovela: Pasion de las Pasiones.

In Pasion de las Pasiones, lies will be exposed, plots will be shattered, hearts will be broken, and if you're lucky, you might even get a happy ending. At least for now. Think American soap opera and add in your average CW show with the drama volume at 11, and then maybe it's close to what you will encounter here.

No background on telenovelas required. Two notes on telenovelas: 1) The default character is LatinX.  2) The genre and its tropes, by default, are gendered and heteronormative. However, this is a game of drama, twists, and turns where these gender and heteronormative tropes can be turned on their heads. In other words, the game can be as queer as the players want and/or as the fiction demands. Except the LatinX part. That part stays.

Safety tools include x-card, lines and veils, open door policy, and script changes. For more info.

Players take on the role of Neolithic nomads, losing their land as the world changes, Post Hyborean, magic diminishes while ancient monsters are unleashed. Players gather around a virtual fire determining the direction the tribe must go after a terrible ordeal. Players construct their roles in the tribe, what traditions or powers the tribe commands, what they are willing to sacrifice to survive. I've run it twice with two different groups, with myself as shaman/facilitator, and everyone has enjoyed it, and I like running it. It's impressive to see, when players sit in a darkened room, with a dim light source below their screen (I use a candle) and it really does feel like you're all sitting around the same fire.
