The Danger Zoo C3 E4 (Actual Play VTTRPG)
Case File 6576-A1

While investigating the Crescent Hotel, the Danger Zoo crew is suddenly paralyzed, force-fed something disgusting, and transported to a massive underground maze beneath Sleepy Hollow, New York.

A strange but oddly familiar voice comes over their radios with a horrifying explanation: each of them has swallowed a piece of the Headless Horseman’s skull, and the Horseman is now hunting them through the maze to get those pieces back.

To survive, the crew has to search piles of Halloween candy for ipecac, throw up their skull fragments, find one another, reassemble the Horseman’s head, and get it to the unsummoning circle before midnight. Piece of friggin cake...for anyone but these idiots.

Between them and freedom are lethal traps, poisoned candy, a maze designed to keep them separated, and the relentless sound of the Headless Horseman getting closer. Can The Danger Zoo nitwits make it out in time!?!?! Only one way to find out. Enjoy the Halloween Special!

If there's a cryptid, monster, or haunted location you'd like to see the team investigate in a future case, let us know in the comments. Your suggestion might become the next mission for the D.A.N.G.E.R.Z.O.O.

Blades for Hire – Episode 30: The Door Without a Lock

I’ve been running an ongoing solo D&D 2024 campaign called Blades for Hire with a slightly different setup: I play my character, Simon, while ChatGPT 5.x acts as the Dungeon Master.

ChatGPT handles the world, NPCs, encounters, combat, mysteries, and the ongoing story. I make Simon’s decisions and roll the dice myself, so neither of us really knows where the campaign is going until we play it.

Simon is a black-skinned tiefling traveling with his red fox companion, Ash, and lately they’ve gotten tangled up with an organization called the Order of the Open Eye.

In Episode 30: The Door Without a Lock, Simon is beginning to discover what the strange mark on his hand actually allows him to do, while the Order closes in around the caravan.

The episode ends with a pretty good cliffhanger involving four mysterious seals hidden in the forest.

Meet the cast of our upcoming Changeling series "Kingdoms of Albion"

At long last, a fourth episode to Across the Starstream is now released.

"A Gilded Cage" Though bittersweet, the group has laid Aiden to rest and can turn their efforts to freeing a mage from a tower.

Their playlist is saved in order of release that is the latest is at the top, in total the campaign is 18 sessions of the main cast and several standalone duet session with only two players.

For those who have not been following it, Streaming Rainbow are continuing their substantial Oceania 2084 Actual Play project. The campaign uses a West Marches approach and follows a large ensemble of Resistance Players struggling to survive, organize, and push back against the institutions of Big Brother.

What has been particularly exciting is seeing how they have made the setting their own. One of the design goals of Oceania 2084 was always that each table should create its own version of The City, and the Streaming Rainbow campaign is a great example of that in action. The result feels both familiar and entirely unique.

I'm incredibly grateful to everyone involved for giving so much of their time and imagination to the project. It is really the greatest form of reward I have felt as a designer to see other people enjoy my game.

Our players are just about the crack this case wide open -- but first they need to engage in some silliness and also split the party to each take care of some quick errands, that will almost surely lead to someone's death. Just another day in 1800's Seattle!

"Onward and Upward" Our gutsy goblins leave the frozen wasteland of Sejiri behind for a warmer climate. Laden with new magical artifacts and the Mox Diamond, the race begins to the next Skyclave in Guul Draz.
