Introduction to Role Playing Games… Game.

We at [insert quest here] want to give people new to the hobby of role-play gaming an opportunity to try it out, that is why on the first weekend of July (Saturday the 4th, and Sunday the 5th) we’ll be running an introductory game. We’re hoping to get new players in to try out games, but we’ll also open the table to people that have only played a few games, or who haven’t played in a while.
There are a few different game worlds we have in mind, but they all use the same rules. the three themes we are considering are: pulp science fiction, fantasy, and post apocalyptic. We’ll run games based on what the majority of the players are interested in.
If you are interested in taking part, and live in the Newcastle/Hunter area; you can email us to express your interest at: insertquesthere@gmail.com.

Eclipse Phase: Price of Doing Business

We recently ran an online game of Eclipse Phase. We were partly inspired to run this after watching a video by PBS Space Time covering the advantages of colonising Venus. A lot of the content discussed in the video is touched on in the Venus chapter of Sunward Eclipse Phase Book. If you are interested in checking out that video you can find it here!

The game itself follows our two player characters as they try to catch a smuggler transporting contraband onto the Venusian cloud cities.

If you’d like to hear more actual plays you can check us out on wordpress, or soundcloud. You can also get the latest news about up coming podcasts, and projects by following us on twitter, or liking us on facebook.

The [insert quest here] monthly writing challenge for June 2015

Robot Sorrow by DonatoArts

Our inspiration for this month comes from Artist DonatoArts, and is titled Robot Sorrow. you can find more of Donatos work on their DeviantArt page.

The challenge is this; write a short story (or other piece of fiction) inspired by the above image, it need only be a few paragraphs long. You have until the 28th of May to complete this months challenge. A hint of advice, I recommend really immersing yourself in the piece. Inspiration doesn’t always strike right away. analyse the stimulus as a way of divining inspiration.

You don’t have to send them back to us or anything (but if you’d like to here is our email: insertquesthere@gmail.com).
We just want to help motivate you to write, and write in different and varied genres.

We’ll post our own attempts on the last day of the month.

We’ll be posting new challenges every month, so check back on the 1st of July to see the next challenge.
You can see Raymond’s attempt for last month by clicking here!

Call Of Cthulhu – Die High: Online Game

A few weeks ago Raymond got to play in another RPPR online fan game, this time a modern day Call of Cthulhu game.
It was Raymond’s first time playing CoC, but he was familiar with the system thanks to his time spent listening to Role Playing Public Radio’s actual plays.

This scenario was run by Aaron and takes place in modern day Chicago. A group of astronomy students are atop a skyscraper, hoping to catch a glimpse at the heavens; when one of them is struck down by a mysterious presence!
Listen in as the players try to discover the truth about what happened to their friend, and what strange entity lurks in the clouds above the windy city. Find out in this actual play of Die High!

This game was only possible thanks to the all the people that support Role Playing Public Radio on Patreon. Raymond is one of them, and if you’d like to show your support for RPPR you can pledge Ross and the rest of his crew some cash over here. Or if you just want to listen to more podcast and actual plays you can find more from RPPR and RPPR actual play by clicking those names respectively.

If you you enjoyed this podcast please like it on wordpress or soundcloud, or leave us a comment. If you want to help Kim and Raymond out, the best thing you could do is share the podcast! It’s how new people discover the site, and it helps us attract more listeners.

Farewell from the past, I’m Raymond.

Eclipse Phase one shot: Homesteading.

A first-in gatecrashing mission out of Pandora leads to a strange discovery.

A mishap with scheduling, and two new players, meant that this scenario ended up being a little more rushed. Still worth listening to, I had a lot of fun doing some character voices.

We’ll be running an online Eclipse Phase game later this month, you can find more info on our facebook page, or our twitter.
