Tatters, in an attempt to forge an alliance with the vampire nation, has infiltrated the Mustang, the fallen casino that Lord Tortemus has claimed as his headquarters.    With battle raging between the Bluecoats and the nightspawn, can Tatters avoid getting caught in the crossfire? And if she does, what secrets might lie waiting to be discovered?   Links Transcript:  https://docs.google.com/document/d/1q7gA-Ta33nbBMYaC-SIiFjLaIPNxwTK1LH8RilJaXhg/edit?usp=sharing All music is royalty-free, and courtesy of Pixabay: https://pixabay.com/music/ and Slipstream https://slip.stream/ Email TheLoneAdv@gmail.com Podbean https://theloneadventurer.podbean.com/ Blog https://carlillustration.wordpress.com/ Chasing Adventure: https://chasingadventuregame.com/ Perchance TLA Random event Oracle: https://perchance.org/tla-randomevent Perchance TLA Tatters Ritual Generator:https://perchance.org/tla-tatters-ritual-generator     Mechanics   Intro scene (S03E07 scene 3 interrupt) The event relates to a Remote Event Action and theme: Imitate Emotion Descriptor and Focus: Offensively Important Alexis Montisario is having a difficult meeting CEO Something positive happening to Voice of the Machine They are meeting secretly at the House of Whispers. The Cult have taken the south of the city, including Chaintop and the Lavenders. Alexis is colluding in a coup against the Arch Dominar.    Scene 1 Chaos factor: 6 Scene Description: Infiltrating the Mustang Scene Test: Interrupt: a Connection: Inquisitor Fonseca. The event relates to a Starforged Action and Theme: Remove Phenomenon More screams: The battered body of Fonseca strung up, being tortured by vampires. Examine Move: When you closely investigate a charged situation, ask the GM one question about it and roll+WIS What does Fonseca know that is useful to me? 4+1+1=6 (1XP) MISS Unable to assess the situation: GM Move: Hit the Ground Running/ Take Something Away Bluecoats arrive, Fonseca knows something, but is close to death   Scene 2 Chaos factor 7 Scene Description: Battle in the Mustang Steakhouse Scene Test: Altered (dangerous environment - floor/ ceiling collapsing) Chase vs Bluecoats for Fonseca Tatters 0 Edge Bluecoats 0 Edge Chase Move: Start the Chase When you enter a chase, either in pursuit or escape, you and your adversary form separate ‘sides' that both start with 0 Edge. Chase Move: Gain the Edge When you try to get ahead in a chase, say how much Edge you risk (2), and roll +INT if you distract or misdirect (Tatters uses prestidigitation to create distracting illusions). 2+2+1=5: MISS Tatters 0 Edge Bluecoats 2 Edge GM Move: Introduce Something New The event relates to a Starforged Descriptor and Focus: Barren Vault Floor collapses, revealing a vast drop, and blocking her path. It looks like the Mustang's secure vault has been cleaned out. Chase Move: Gain the Edge When you try to get ahead in a chase, say how much Edge you risk (1), and roll +DEX if you sprint, hide or manoeuvre (Tatters leaps, ducks, sprints). 2+3+1=6: MISS Tatters 0 Edge Bluecoats 3 Edge Chase Move It's Over When any side in a chase has 3 or more Edge, the chase comes to an end. Whoever has the most Edge succeeds in escaping or catching their quarry. If multiple sides tie for the most Edge, the side with the most PCs wins (just barely). If that is also tied, then the PC that last Gained the Edge chooses one side to win, with the other tying sides gaining +1 Edge for the purposes of spending it below. Losing sides can spend their Edge 1-for-1 to: Learn something about another side (where they will go, who leads them, how to escape them now, etc.) Have the chase end somewhere advantageous for them (reinforcements, a trap or lair, an intervening third party, etc.) Grant Advantage Forward to all PCs on their side. Inflict Disadvantage Forward on all PCs on an opposing side. GM Move: Have It Backfire This means taking what the PCs did and twisting it. The Adventurers aren't incompetent, so don't portray this as them being inept. Instead this backfiring should be due to freak accident, unforeseeable consequence, active sabotage, or the frightening power of an enemy. Tatters' decision to abandon the Blue comes back to bite her. The Bluecoats recover Fonseca, and force a sacrifice.

Summary On this episode of the Driving Change Podcast, Michael Novak, President and CEO at Wellspring Financial Advisors, shares his expertise in understanding the communication required to pass on family values and wealth through generations. He emphasizes the importance of transparency and communication within families, regardless of their wealth. Novak discusses different generations' challenges and the need to address them to ensure successful wealth transfer. He also introduces two exercises that can help families improve communication and identify shared values: a communication exercise that helps family members understand their communication styles and a values exercise that encourages families to discuss and prioritize their core values. He discusses emotional intelligence and the soft skills required to navigate the complexities of family dynamics and values, and emphasizes the significance of communication, vulnerability, and intentional conversations within families. The conversation also touches on the balance between success and significance. The conversation ends with Michael highlighting the role of philanthropy in creating a meaningful legacy. Takeaways Transparency and communication are crucial in passing on family values and wealth through generations. The challenges faced by different generations must be addressed to ensure successful wealth transfer. Two exercises can help families improve communication and identify shared values: a communication exercise that helps family members understand their communication styles and a values exercise that encourages families to discuss and prioritize their core values. Legacy planning involves more than just financial considerations; it requires emotional intelligence and the ability to navigate family dynamics. Communication and intentional conversations are crucial for families to define their values and create a meaningful legacy. Success should be defined on a personal level, beyond financial achievements, and significance is the outcome of living according to those values. Philanthropy plays a significant role in creating a lasting legacy and giving back to the community. Organizations like Bluecoats provide support to families of first responders who have lost their lives in the line of duty.

Escape 0/8 NPC Tactics   NPC opponents have an Aggression rating of 1 to 6, with most starting on 4.   To find an opponent's tactic for the round, roll 2D6 of the same colour and one of a different colour. If the single die comes up a 1, 2 or 3, continue the same tactic from the previous round. On a 4 or 5, total the two same-coloured dice and add Aggression, then pick from the Tactic table. If it shows a 6, roll it again and pick an action from the Twist table.   As they take or inflict wounds, gain or lose the advantage in a fight, NPC opponents' Aggression will raise or lower. Experienced fighters will change only a small amount, while green, frightened or vengeful opponents will change more. Each time someone in the fight (either PC or NPC) suffers a setback, there should be a chance for Aggression to change. If the NPCs are nervous or demoralised, Aggression will drop when they suffer a setback and rise when a PC does. If they are angry or undisciplined, Aggression will rise when they suffer a setback and drop when a PC does.   If you don't want to bother with Aggression, roll 3D6 for a tactic. If you want a more straightforward fight, without unexpected moves, drop the Twist die.   NPC Tactic table Panic - flee without caution, open self up to opportunistic attack Surrender - throw down weapons and submit to opponent Disengage - attempt to divert opponent's attention away from self Retreat - move towards cover or out of range Guard - defend only, no attack Probe - attack cautiously, testing opponent's defenses Wear down - draw the fight out and try to tire the opponent Stand-off - wait for opponent to make the next move Balance - attack and defend evenly, no particular strategy Feint - try to trick opponent into defending against the wrong move Reverse - rapidly switch from aggressive to defensive fighting to off-balance opponent Taunt - try to anger or dismay opponent into making a mistake Press - keep opponent on the defensive and hope their skill is inferior Strike - try to penetrate opponent's defence with a fast attack Charge - attack with ferocity, risking injury to wound opponent Frenzy - attack wildly, risking death to wound opponent   Twist Table Re-enforce - Call for help from allies/bystanders Change - weapon/objective/ground Disadvantage opponent - throw a burning candelabra, maneuver into uneven terrain, cut a curtain so that it falls over their head Advantage self - take the higher ground, move so that they are not facing the sun, draw/pick up a second weapon Bargain - try to persuade opponent to surrender/back out of combat/change sides Trick - try to convince opponent they are about to suffer a setback or gain a false advantage MYTHIC Q: Do the vampires take damage from the roof impact?

Comics can come from some weird places. Which most of the time is a shot at the writer or artist and the fact that they're a weirdo. But sometimes is just a basic factual statement.

Not Insane Ian, but he did stop by the show to talk about North and South which does exactly that. Except under the name Les Tuniques Bleues if you're reading it in the original French but known as The Bluecoats when translated into English.

If that is the case then I send up every song in my heart to the Goddess that this letter reaches you safely. My mind reels imagining what feats of swashbuckling daring-do you managed to pull off allowing your escape from those blasted Bluecoats. What I would give to one-day bear witness to such skill and panache. Though I fear with my constitution in the state that it is, the mere sight of blood would see me laid out upon the deck like the many fools who meet the business end of your trident. Forgive me, for I seem to have found myself rambling. I know how your days and nights are filled with endless adventures. So, I will neither waste words nor ink and find myself to the point swiftly. There is a deal taking place in Paraiso Encontrado on the 13th of Blooming Tides. A merchant by the name of Sergio Diez De Laton has been making waves around the Shark's Tidepools recently. He's Petite Espenoran nobility, known for his ever-growing collection of "Pirate History". He apparently considers himself an academic of a sort. Recently he's been searching for a buyer for one of many objects in his prized personal collection, an unusual circumstance.  Not sure what the item is specifically, but word has it that it once belonged to one of the old Pirate Lords. And I mean one fo the OLD Pirate Lords. One of the first. If this is the case then I would say it's most likely better in your hands than theirs or their buyers. I won't lie, I yearn for the whispers I'm sure to hear if you choose to act on this information. Tales of intrigue and insidious skullduggery. They'll act as a fleeting panacea to dull the agonizing pain of being so far from your tender touch.

The Earth is All That Lasts with Mark Lee Gardner

Today I speak with historian of the American West Mark Lee Gardner about his recent book The Earth is All That Lasts: Crazy Horse, Sitting Bull, and the Last Stand of the Great Sioux Nation. Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull: Their names are iconic, their significance in American history undeniable. Together, these two Lakota chiefs, one a fabled warrior and the other a revered holy man, crushed George Armstrong Custer's vaunted Seventh Cavalry. Yet their legendary victory at the Little Big Horn has overshadowed the rest of their rich and complex lives. Now, based on years of research and drawing on a wealth of previously ignored primary sources, award-winning author Mark Lee Gardner delivers the definitive chronicle, thrillingly told, of these extraordinary Indigenous leaders. Both Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull were born and grew to manhood on the High Plains of the American West, in an era when vast herds of buffalo covered the earth, and when their nomadic people could move freely, following the buffalo and lording their fighting prowess over rival Indian nations. But as idyllic as this life seemed to be, neither man had known a time without whites. Fur traders and government explorers were the first to penetrate Sioux lands, but they were soon followed by a flood of white intruders: Oregon-California Trail travelers, gold seekers, railroad men, settlers, town builders—and Bluecoats. The buffalo population plummeted, disease spread by the white man decimated villages, and conflicts with the interlopers increased. On June 25, 1876, in the valley of the Little Big Horn, Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull, and the warriors who were inspired to follow them, fought the last stand of the Sioux, a fierce and proud nation that had ruled the Great Plains for decades. It was their greatest victory, but it was also the beginning of the end for their treasured and sacred way of life. And in the years to come, both Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull, defiant to the end, would meet violent—and eerily similar—fates. An essential new addition to the canon of Indigenous American history and literature of the West, The Earth Is All That Lasts is a grand saga, both triumphant and tragic, of two fascinating and heroic leaders struggling to maintain the freedom of their people against impossible odds.
