Hunter: The Reckoning - Day For Night is coming out next month. So I think it's about time I introduce folks to some of the characters. Watch this thread as I roll them out before the release.

Everyday (un)life in the World of Darkness. Humor account hammering one joke into the ground since 2014. Will sometimes also create viable plot hooks as well. She/Her.
Half of all action TV shows used to be about the hero coming into town, finding one of these rich guys and his yokel goon squad, and kicking his ass with karate or an invisible motorcycle.
Sarah Taber@sarahtaber.bsky.social · 6d agoMost rural areas have a ruling class. And they want cheap unfree workers & to pass their fiefdoms on tax-free forever. It ain't rocket science. The fact that we're scared to talk about THAT, ime, is what's costing us a lot of rural voters!
One of the great joys of running a Vampire chronicle for people who have never played Vampire before is tossing them into a stew of contradictory conspiracies. Vampires love to present themselves as erudite and sophisticated, but they have very little evidence about their own supernatural world. +
I loved this story as a kid, reading and rereading it. We’ve reached the day it’s set.
Eric Scott@captainfossil.bsky.social · 2d agoToday is "Soft Rains Day" for those who remember this haunting 1950 Ray Bradbury piece. It's classic Bradbury, eerily accurate w/ its predictions in some respects (looking at you, Alexa), and well worth a few moments of your day to read if you're so inclined.
I've got a new story up on Rascal. It's one of those stories that is a real gift. It's just so charming and fun. Don't worry about what it is about. Just read it! You will not regret it! www.rascal.news/larping-cthu...

Are there any Cthulhu stories that reflect how much budget cuts have affected collegial investigators our there? Seems like a rich vein
Cthulhu story where Miskatonic University goes anti-woke and they stop probing the mysteries of the Old Ones and set up a Charlie Kirk Free Speech Corner.

The phase 2 slate has been unveiled and it’s looking VERY different than phase 1! Which fake movie are you most excited for? Listen to the full reveal on YT or wherever you get podcasts!
Here's a bonus cartoon and a plug for Mannequin on the Moon's team of Ian and Pia's new horror graphic novel Frostbite out Aug 4th from Scholastic. Yes, that Scholastic.
If Marvel can't be bothered to make Blade they should put it out to tender like the BBC has with Doctor Who. A decent sized Vampire LARP could make Blade: The Series without rehearsal.
I... I like this idea. Given player density and an absurd production budget, this would be a fantastic counterpart to foam-swords-weekend-at-a-campsite LARP. Like a nightclub, you couldn't have a peak night every night, but, man, if you could promote once a month or once a quarter, this would rule.

couldn't decide if I wanted to set this in afternoon or evening, I like them both
