Actual Play- Red Markets d20 - Ep 3 Con Crud

Looking to expand after their recent successes, the burgeoning enclave of MyWay has experienced a population boom. As a result they want to grow the safe zone into the convention center across the street, and everyone willing including our takers are being hired to make that happen. They could refuse, but it IS MyWay or the SkyWay.

Brownie - The Market

Adam - Snips - totally not a hair dresser latent with trust issues - but actually a hard of hearing surgeon with a penchant for vasectomies laser or otherwise.

Crazon – Ecclesiarch – Knight of the Realm… Err, Believer… Little Bit of a LALA… Using medieval armor and armaments, making his way through his personal broken dreams in the loss.

Joe – 7-8-9 – Latent who frequently finds themselves on the blunt end of casualty bashing.

David – Longshot – The baby variant of this storied character. Your friendly local Canadian terrorist/chair enthusiast. Interesting in checking things off of his list and popping a nice squat.

In this episode of the RPX Rollup, we're back with Urban Shadows 2nd edition. We're doing some city creation work, building Barrie, Ontario as our supernatural setting. We walk through the process of taking a real place and figuring out what kind of supernatural stuff might be going on there.

Join us as we discuss Barrie's actual history and geography, then start layering in the supernatural elements - where different factions might operate, what kind of politics exist between them, and how the supernatural world intersects with the regular city.
