Goswin Aigner pushes himself further than he thought he could go, putting himself out into the abyss and stealing himself to grab one more person in need. He just barely makes it, his fingertips grabbing on to hers at the last possible moment, and Goswin learns something profound about himself in t...
Round Two Results Unfazed by their strange environment, the 32nd SET springs into action like veterans of inter-dimensional travel. The Cyber-Knight, Hedge, is no stranger to demons and monstrosities from other worlds, and his flashing psi-swords cut through the shark-bat-thing’s hide as cleanly as...
Round One Results [/size] The research team of Hedge, White Castle, and Vincent learned something very, very interesting about the stall in question: it is not of your time, nor is it even of your world. The stall gives off the energies of a darker dimension, though it is subtle. Once Hedge and Vin...
Voted; the game has been exactly as promised when you and I chatted about me joining up way back when the SWADE books were still in testing. Looking forward to whatever you have up your sleeve next.
GM Mini Update: As the team is observing the stall, you notice that the activity is picking up, and that the people visiting the stall (and often disappearing) seem to be of all walks of life. Urchins and well-dressed business people alike pass you on their way to wherever it is they're going. Perh...
Bizarre Bazaar [/size] It’s an empty, nondescript looking stall in what is an otherwise outlandish marketplace, where a thousand booths scattered haphazardly throughout the plaza sell everything from textiles to food and drink to household items to objects of immense magical power. Merchants offer ...
Because we are using the modified Wealth system, big ticket items can be a little tough to buy. To that end, if you’ve got something in mind that you’d like your character to be able to acquire, whether as loot or as a purchase, please respond here and let me know. Some items might make more sense t...
Round Two Results The combined efforts of the 32nd's small team are more effective than anyone would have dreamed. As predicted, the Federation's troops come by night, rushing the town in a blitzkrieg-like assault. Their troops flood into the town but, in their haste, they do not realize they are b...
" Just a couple of quick questions if I may? " The buildings in Psyscape A) Covered in glyphs or markings like writing B) Covered with murals, frescos, reliefs or other large art pieces Another question, where is the library? Judge Iasus, being the one standing, smiles at Castle's eagerne...
Instead of a full social conflict, I have decided to alter the challenge post-hoc to a simple persuasion test, which you passed with flying colors. The highest any of the Judges rolled to resist your argument was a 5, which gives you a raise on even the formerly uncooperative Judge Yanchang. That’s...
Kharis, formerly of the crew of the Remorseless (the fiercest mercenaries in the Three Galaxies), was rifted to Earth years ago. He landed in the area of Dweomer and found camaraderie with the Battle Magi, who welcomed him into their ranks. After years of service, his faithful sword from his homewor...

Led Like Lambs Tessaric meets you all in the courtyard with a curt, but not unfriendly, nod. “I’m glad you’re here. I just received my summons, and I was ‘asked’ to bring you all along with me. I will explain on the walk over, though it’s not far.” He continues, “here is the situation as it stands ...
Lys and I are interested. She’d like reprise her role as a City Rat from her first one shot (as you suggested), and I’d like to play the grifter (if she’s not already taken). This depends on timing and availability of slots, of course.
The Battle Is Joined The forces of the True Federation are ruthless, and they open fire almost immediately. The Flame Wing Dragon lets loose with massive gouts of flame as the Combat Mage begins bringing his troops to bear against the townsfolk and its defenses. Unfortunately for the Federation, th...
On Maggie's Knuckledusters and Martial Artist I know that the Official Answer (see the link here ) is that damage from knuckledusters does not stack with damage from Edges like Martial Artist, but I submit that answer should be disregarded and the damage should stack. My reasoning is as follows: (1...
Conditions It is late afternoon when Hedge Squidge Goswin Aigner White Castle and Billy arrive at the City of the Mind’s eye. The air is pleasantly cool and the sky is overcast. As you approach a green valley, a fog arises, blocking your view for miles. Any party members with any psionic ability is...
Conditions The team of Vincent , Sis , and Dazzle approach Gatestown in the late afternoon. The sun has not yet begun to set, but it certainly will soon, and the air is pleasantly cool.

" My information says that Psyscape has the best chances of reclaiming the 'Harvested' " " Tessaric, how did you find out about this Harvester? " The elf warrior replies, "This is what we do. We hunt Harvesters wherever they are found, and we bring them to justice or to the...
"Well, like I tried to tell you earlier, we came to the Magic Zone on a mission of our own when we came across you and your charges. It seemed like you, or she honestly, might be in a bad way. We're not above offering aid someone in need, so we stopped to help. That's when the situation turned...
Okay, we’ve got enough folks who either want discord or don’t have a preference that we’re going to make the switch. I’ll let you guys know when the discord channel is set up and we can start discording.
Once she is able to, the Harvester cries out Wait! and the Xombies go suddenly still. Not wasting a moment, Tessaric picks up her chain again and places his psi-blade on her neck. ”Do that again, and I will relieve you of your tongue. Nod if you understand.” The woman nods, tears in her eyes, and Te...
While it has not happened yet, Google is expected to pull support for Hangouts at some point. In preparation for this inevitability, our site admins have begun setting up channels in Discord for individual games that are interested in making the switch to Discord sooner. I would prefer to have us al...
Per the Hangout, Vincent has chosen to spend a Benny and so gets a new Action Card! KS
Vincent's Monster Slayer ability would let him know that dispel could work on the xombies, but only temporarily, as the Xombies are permanently possessed by an other-dimensional being.
Response! [/size] The D’Norr Xombie girl nearest Squidge is immediately lifted and thrown away by the fierceness of Sis’s attack, landing in a crumpled heap but somehow looking no worse for the wear. One of the three Xombies rushing towards Dazzle is similarly picked up and thrown, knocking into a ...

Thanks for your comments! I've added a little bit of info in my hindrances section detailing what I spent the points on. As for the submachine gun, I'm not sure exactly which one is the correct one. There's three options; the H&K MP5, the Tommy Gun, and the Uzi. Do I just pick one, or is there ...
Unless I am missing something (and that’s certainly possible), the submachine gun should be a mundane one from SWADE with silver bullets, otherwise it looks good to me.
Edit: also, please show how you spent your points from hindrances.
It’s that time again! Let me know how you think things are going, and please note we’re switching over to a 3 point scale instead of a 5 point scale site-wide.
I’m super excited to keep playing with you guys as we venture together into The Dark Harvest!
Note: 6 xombies surround the woman. Because she is on the ground and so surrounded, attacks targeting her suffer a -4 penalty and her xombie shields count as innocent bystanders for the rules regarding firing into melee.

Billy and Goswin Aigner Because you guys got raises on your Notice rolls, you start the round on hold. If you'd like to try and go before the bad guys, please respond and drop an Athletics roll to interrupt. The Target Number to beat is 5. Once you have both had a chance to roll, I will draw Action...
Conditions It’s still a pleasant afternoon, and the air is cool and comfortable in the shade of the trees. It is a stark contrast to the tension and heaviness that hangs around the party and those they have discovered in their path. Words A lot of people start speaking at once, and the elf’s ears p...
For the record, I understand that something similar to the MOH was included in the pre-SWADE version of this armor, but SWADE changed the power curve and removed a lot of the optical enhancements that came in a lot of suits. SWADE also gave a way for players to easily add an MOH to their armor outsi...
If it's based on the Naruni armor, it does make sense that the modifiers from Empires for Naruni tech would apply. I believe we applied the modifiers for some of the other patron items based on their manufacturers, too. I'm still hung up on the MOH thing. It's not the end of the world, but I would s...
Except that the cost of the concealment feature would essentially double the cost of the item, per the text above the HJ roll. Whether it had the MOH or not before, that would be an easy thing to drop to adjust the power curve, and it’s something that interested players could still add later if they...
So I made a small change to the Stealth armor ; one I added Electronics as a skill to activate the Cloak. Second, I am considering adding that it can be concealed under loose clothes, but neither it's stealth bonus or Cloak function while covered. But it's good for infiltrating a site where a black...

Conditions You pass the night in safety, and the next morning is a picturesque day in the Magic Zone.

GM Mini Update: Because it was asked in Hangouts, your information tells you the orb was last spotted in a settlement called Gatestown. You do not have anything more specific than that, unfortunately.
With death, the suffering begins. Spectre Company.png The sounds of the summer night echoed throughout the forest. The gentle rustling of leaves in the wind, the chirping of a thousand crickets, the call of an owl on a midnight hunt. These were but a few of the sounds of a darkened forest that tee...
This looks good at first glance, but I am having some trouble tracking your skills (you have so many from so many sources!) Which are the ones you got/increased from the F&G smarts roll? Which are the ones you started with a d8 in from Rogue Scholar? Which are the ones that were boosted by HJ re...
Looks okay to me. I like that it charges according to your EF's rules instead of at ley lines. That is a good story flourish.
I would note that it appears as though you could use the Major upgrade slots for 10 PPE each instead of 5. I'll post a question in the OA forum to clarify.
Looks like you incorporated @Koshnek's feedback already; thanks to you both.
He just needs a background and his powers, and Billy looks ready to go! Please let me know once you create an account for him and I will get him authorized to post on the forum.
As we gear up to launch our Psyscape game, I'd like some help in reviewing everyone's character sheets. Anyone who lends a hand and reviews at least one other player's character sheet may have a Benny, which will carry over into the next quarter if not spent (seeing as how we are going to be startin...
One week has passed since the Battle of Jungle Castle. The team is back at Avanzada Seca and preparing their next move. Word has arrived from Castle Refuge that the SET is to return for debriefing and possible re-assignment. For now, at least, the 32nd's adventure is over. This is your opportunity t...
HJ [dice:3wm7b4b3]63963:0[/dice:3wm7b4b3] More ISP means more power to work with, and your character has it. He gains the Power Points Edge. Psionics who already have this Edge should reroll.

Freemage I had missed that change. That’s very cool. I’m curious, why wouldn’t you say the edge and psionics boost could be applied generally (as opposed to just on the built in power)? It’s common enough for a wizard to have a wand or staff that aids in Spellcasting. Assuming she’s holding the mag...
I’d say the limited responses balances out the fact that it can be used anywhere, so you can probably get another minor mod. Something like +1 to Agility or Parry to represent her foresight could be neat. The other minor mods should be +1 instead of +2. The channeling edge is cool, but its benefits ...
