86 - El_diablo_viene_en_OVNI_a_cazar_a_Drácula_y_sus_inesperadas_consecuencias Ya iba siendo hora de que Tomás Sendarrubias, autor de dos shadowshots de Esoterroristas, viniera al podcast. Sí, a ver, que ha escrito otros shadowshots para The Dee Sanction. Y 4 libros. Y no se cuántas obras de teatro. Y ha escrito El rey del invierno, que ha recaudado más de 100.000 euros en un crowdfunding…. pero, a ver, que aquí venimos a lo importante, que es Gumshoe. Y aquí también tiene mucho que aportar, ojo cuidao. Y no solo de Esoterroristas, sino de El rey de amarillo y Drácula Dossier… y más cosas, vaya. La música que se escucha al principio es The Edge de Swoop.
¿Qué es? Es un suplemento del juego de rol The Dee Sanction. Es una ampliación del escenario hacia la península Ibérica del siglo XVI, la España de Felipe II. Basado en hechos históricos y personalidades reales, pero de una forma libre sin perseguir la fidelidad histórica. El objetivo Contar historias donde los personajes jugadores lleven a cabo investigaciones, misterios e intrigas en una Europa casi histórica, ya que lo sobrenatural, la magia, lo sagrado y lo profano, existe más allá de los límites de la percepción popular. Como novedad, este suplemento incorpora, además, la lucha sin piedad entre el bien y el mal. Una guerra contra lo maligno y lo demoníaco, donde se percibe a Satán o sus secuaces detrás de cada esquina; pero donde los santos, los milagros o los portentos también pueden interceder en los acontecimientos, sea todo esto una amenaza real o simple propaganda. En este suplemento los jugadores interpretan a agentes que trabajan bajo los auspicios de la Inquisición para evitar amenazas sobrenaturales y mágicas. Los agentes son personas comunes que han acabado como reos de la Inquisición, y a quienes se les ha ofrecido la oportunidad de detener su condena y redimir su pasado, su honor o su alma. El Escenario EL REGRESO DE LO SOBRENATURAL Durante la primera mitad del siglo XVI las reformas religiosas se extendieron por toda Europa como un incendio. La Iglesia Católica, fuertemente cuestionada, reaccionó convocando el Concilio de Trento con la esperanza de reunificar a los creyentes. EL REY PRUDENTE Felipe recibió una extensa educación en numerosas materias, como arquitectura, matemáticas, teología, música, etc., pero también en el campo de lo esotérico. EL ESCORIAL Y EL CÍRCULO El rey planeó un lugar desde el que gobernar sus extensos reinos, un lugar que fuera al mismo tiempo el centro burocrático de su imperio, pero que también fuese un bastión inexpugnable contra los siervos del maligno. LA INQUISICION Felipe dictó al Consejo de la Inquisición una orden secreta, la «Instructio Salomonis Redemptio», según la cual, a algunos reos condenados por la Inquisición se les daría la posibilidad de conmutar la sentencia por prestar servicio al Santo Oficio en su lucha contra el mal, o contra los enemigos del reino con cualquier medio a su alcance. Para buscar y reclutar a los candidatos el Consejo debía servirse de hombres de confianza, ya que la mayor parte de la propia Inquisición debía quedar al margen de todo. Sólo un pequeño grupúsculo de prelados del Santo Oficio, conscientes de lo que se ocultaba en las tinieblas, tendrían como misión seleccionar a los condenados. MAGIA Y CIENCIA Como se comenta en el libro básico, las creencias populares del Renacimiento y el Barroco pueden parecer hoy en día ridículas. Conceptos como ciencia, magia, religión y superstición compartían fronteras difusas, entremezclando creencias, prácticas y tradiciones que hoy en día entendemos por separado. MAGIA, HECHICERÍA Y BRUJERÍA En la Sanción de la Inquisición, el poder de lo sobrenatural es real, tanto el de la magia como el de la fe. La Iglesia y la Inquisición españolas, en su combate contra la herejía y la corrupción, controlan el conocimiento a través de la censura y del índice de libros prohibidos, pero muchos conocimientos esotéricos y malignos provienen de la tradición popular. Al mismo tiempo deben vigilar las manifestaciones de lo sagrado, pues el número de iluminados que dicen hablar con la Virgen, los ángeles y los santos es enorme entre una población fanática, aunque no son reales en la mayoría de los casos. Teólogos y tratadistas de la época dividen las practicas esotéricas en tres categorías: Magia o Alta Mágia, hechicería y brujería. Se conoce por«Alta Magia» o «Magia Docta» al arte que, basado en la tradición hermética y enriquecida en España por los conocimientos de la magia islámica y de la cábala judía, intenta penetrar en los misterios de la creación divina. ...

The Dee Sanction Comprar Los jugadores son agentes que trabajan bajo los auspicios de la sanción Dee para evitar amenazas sobrenaturales y mágicas en el marco de una Europa, alternativa, en la época de los Tudor. Los Agentes no son héroes, son gente corriente sin futuro, criminales, a los que se les ofrece la oportunidad de suspender su ejecución y corregir los errores del pasado. Nuestros recursos o nuestra forma de comportarnos Lo primero que vamos ha hacer es definir a nuestro agente por la manera de sobrevivir, sus 3 recursos, son nuestro comportamiento delante de los desafíos que nos salgan en nuestro camino. Estos tres recursos son Físico, Intelectual o Sobrenatural. Cada uno tiene que tener un valor y para definirlo deberemos darle un dado de x caras para poder lanzarlo cuando sea preciso. Los dados que podemos darle son D4, D6, D8, D10 y D12. Para darle el dado a cada recurso tenemos 6 puntos a repartir, cada dado nombrado tiene un valor entre 1 y 5, donde 1 es para el D4 y 5 para el D12. Entonces si queremos un agente potente en su comportamiento físico le daremos un D10 en Físico un D4 en Intelectual y un D4 en Sobrenatural. El D10 vale 4 más 1 del D4 más 1 del otro D4 hemos gastado los 6 puntos para darles valor. Físico: Representa la fragilidad o la fuerza de la forma mortal; una medida de los aspectos de la fuerza, la agudeza manual y la violencia dirigida.Intelectual: Constituye el aprendizaje estructurado y la claridad de pensamiento. La asociación de ingenio y sabiduría para construir conceptos y principios defendibles.Sobrenatural: Establece la sintonía con la alteridad que rodea e impregna nuestro mundo. El anclaje de la propia existencia esencial. Trasfondo o el moldeado de su perdición Una vez fuimos gente corriente, pero algo nos llevó por un camino oscuro. Al final, quedó una mancha negra en nuestra alma; acabando en una celda húmeda con los días contados. Entonces recibimos una oferta que no pudimos rechazar: la redención. El trasfondo son los eventos cruciales en nuestros pasado reciente. Podemos hacerlo eligiendo en la lista que el libro nos ofrece o al azar, lanzando un dado o con naipes de la baraja francesa. Cada elección que hagamos nos dará unas habilidades especificas de nuestro trasfondo: Ocupación: Doctor, Paria, Barbero/Cirujano, Porteador, Cortesano...Asociación condenatoria: La sociedad octogonal, Caballeros de los tres impostores, Sociedad de Jesús.Enfoque que nos ilumina: Liber salomonis, De Neygomancia, Los pecados de longinos. Favor de los ángeles Los Favores representan la influencia mágica de bajo nivel que puede ejercer un Agente. Los Favores son magia angelical de la forma más baja: influencia sobre las fuerzas elementales básicas del mundo mortal y del mundo invisible. Funcionan una vez por sesión de forma automática, los Favores pueden lograr efectos improbables, pero siempre son de pequeña escala. Un objeto inflamable puede arder y prenderse sin estar cerca de una llama, ¡pero un Agente no puede hacer que alguien entre en combustión! (al final el moderador de juego decide si es posible y que efecto tiene). Ampolla, degradar, burbujear, escaldar, irritar. Decaimiento, necrosis, entumecer, hacer polvo, licuar. Habilidades Una habilidad es un área general de conocimiento, pericia o experiencia. Estas nos las da al elegir el trasfondo del nuestro agente, entre las ocho habilidades elegiremos tres. Las habilidades se pueden utilizar tanto de forma pasiva como activa. En una situación ordinaria y sin estrés, puedes usar una habilidad para explicar por qué tu Agente puede hacer algo, descubrir algo o conocer un hecho determinado. Consigues lo que quieres sin una tirada de Recurso. Ante un desafío, un Agente con una habilidad relevante subirá un nivel de dado. Heridas y Desentrañar Las heridas son el daño que nuestro agente puede soportar, comenzamos con 3 puntos de heridas.

Próximas novedades en Shadowlands Ediciones: The Dee Sanction En Shadowlands Ediciones siempre queremos traeros el mejor contenido con la mejor calidad y mimo. Hoy, queremos actualizar nuestro blog con un el anuncio de un nuevo título que se unirá a nuestro catálogo. Os traemos ni más ni menos que el ganador del premio al mejor juego de rol de la UK Games Expo 2021: THE DEE SANCTION, de Paul Baldowski. La ambientación The Dee Sanction, es un juego de rol tradicional en donde tus personajes vivirán aventuras oscuras enfrentando lo sobrenatural, mezclando investigación, acción y política en la corte de los Tudor y la Europa del S. XVI en donde la magia existe. Todo comenzó cuando Isabel Tudor accedió al trono en 1558. La herencia de las maquinaciones su padre, Enrique VIII, le dejó no solo la amenaza de múltiples guerras, sino también la furia de la Iglesia de Roma como enemigos del catolicismo. Ese colapso en la solidaridad de la fe, combinado con el fanatismo que generó para erradicar a los infieles, asaltó la fuerza invisible de la barrera de la fe en toda Europa. La oportunidad llamó a las entidades sobrenaturales y a los practicantes de la magia para recuperarse de siglos de resistencia pasiva. La población mortal no podía imaginar las consecuencias del resurgimiento de las criaturas y los Fae como resultado de la brujería, en lugar de ser una tradición olvidada. En 1563, la reina aprobó una Ley contra conjuros, encantamientos y brujerías. Castigaba estos actos duramente, en muchos casos con la muerte. En 1564, John Dee y Francis Walsingham convencieron a la reina para que aprobara una enmienda a la ley -la Sanción Dee- que permitía la práctica de la magia en defensa del reino. Así, aquellos heréticos aplazarían su condena por el servicio a Su Majestad, pudiendo ganar el indulto. Los mismos Walsingham y Dee elegían a estas pobres almas, controlando a esos afortunados malhechores como Agentes de un servicio de inteligencia encubierto. Eres un agente de Dee; no por elección, sino por un retorcido sentido de supervivencia. Los que te rodean saben de tus antecedentes. No eres una buena persona. Has hecho cosas malas y has estado expuesto a verdades horribles. Pero puedes ver la luz al final del túnel. Solo si puedes superar las sombras de tu pasado y los horrores del presente... Esto es The Dee Sanction. El sistema The Dee Sanction utiliza mecánicas simples. A modo de resumen, un agente típico tiene tres recursos físicos, intelectuales y sobrenaturales. Funcionan como sus características. Cada uno de ellos tiene asignado un dado, desde d4 hasta d12, que mide lo bueno que eres. Una vez que se determina el concepto y trasfondo del personaje, se encaja la profesión y se añaden las habilidades relacionadas. Luego se determina el favor. En esta Europa alternativa, los ángeles, demonios y otros poderes tienen su influencia. El personaje tiene parte de ello y se elige o se determina aleatoriamente. Es su lado sobrenatural. Hay otros factores como la fortuna y el equilibrio de humores (algo así como su estabilidad mental). La resolución de conflictos es simple: se determina el recurso relacionado (físico , intelectual o sobrenatural) y una habilidad relacionada. Se tira el dado del recurso. Si sale 1 o 2, se falla. En caso contrario, se tiene éxito. ¿Que pasa si se fracasa? El sistema se aleja del fallo cortante, y especifica un fallo hacia delante o fail forward, utilizando consecuencias y garantizando el progreso con un sistema de consecuencias que darán ese sabor agridulce que nos gusta. Además, existe una mecánica arriesgada. Probar tu suerte. Engloba lo que está fuera de control del Moderador o de los personajes. Se lanza una moneda (o un d6). Si sale la corona (cara o 4 o más), conectas los eventos a favor. Si sale cruz (o 3 o menos)… Prepárate para las consecuencias. Puede jugarse con dados y/o con baraja de naipes con joker.

Our conclusion of Ex Libris, and some initial thoughts on The Dee Sanction
The year is 1593. Spared the hangman's rope for their heretical transgressions, four gentlemen of London - under the orders of Master John Dee - make a clandestine trip to Deptford to retrieve a prized book from one of England's greatest seafarers (no, not that one), only to find themselves embroiled with enormous vermin, mechanical men, and a bloodthirsty playwright (no, not that one). It's much ado about copious amounts of blood in our first foray into "The Dee Sanction" (http://thedeesanction.com/)

Campus Crier First things first. You might think that we have two guests on the show, but you would be mistaken! Bridgett Jefferies has agreed to co-host MUP with us on a trial basis to see how she likes it! So let's give her a heart welcome! New Comet Games has released their latest Kickstarter, Corsairs of Cthulhu! It's pirates versus tentacles on the high seas! As of the time of recording they have completely funded with more than 28 days left on the campaign. So to Ben Burns and the crew over at New Comet Games. Congratulations! Friend of the show and all around brilliant artist Pat Long, aka SpiderQueenLong as she's known on our Discord server, is one of the creative people behind “ChangedStars a Feminist Scifi roleplaying game set in a more hopeful future with some serious hurdles still ahead.” The Kickstarter went live, or will go live, on the 27th of April. If you haven't seen Pat's amazing inked art then you are in for a treat, it bleeds classic sci-fi. You can pick up a PDF of the game for $15 and $40 will get you a hardback. As always we have links and in this instance, art in the show notes. The Shadow of Cthulhu is an art Kickstarter that is from Bryan Fyffe, an all around amazing artist, that is a friend of Former Keeper Jon ;) and is a Disney artist. His campaign has a plethora of small and large art pieces of varying medium, from paper, to sculpture, to framed prints. The campaign has already been funded. Another Kickstarter that has already funded but that you might be interested in is The Bleakness. Billed as an “... uniquely immersive horror experience. Players assume the role of pilgrims, struggling to survive on an ancient road fraught with danger and mysteries. The Bleakness is a system, campaign setting, and detailed adventure arc bound in one text [with] gritty survival mechanics and the threat of the unknown [to] create a high-tension game like no other. There is still 1 day left on the Academies of the Arcane Troika! Kickstarter from Melsonian Arts Council. The book “is a comprehensive toolkit—it will work as well with any game where you might need magical schools, students possessing horrifying cosmic powers, and manipulative and petty faculty members.” I've backed this, because Troika!, and I think it might be an interesting drop-in to combine with the PowerWord zine that should be coming soon and some of the other little indie rpgs that I have, like Dee Sanction. Cthulhu in the Deep South is a shifting POV historical fiction podcast series that starts in the Antebellum South and continues through the Civil War and into Reconstruction. They've just launched Book 5 which is about a carpetbagger getting mixed up in some cosmic horror. Our own Keeper Murph will be a guest on their interview feed on the 1st, but no idea when that will actually drop as of this recording, since it is in the future, but we are in the past.

This episode Keepers Murph, Jon, & Dave talk about how you can scale encounters to fit your group of investigators.

Stygian Fox has released the PDF for the New Tales of the Miskatonic Valley 2ed for Call of Cthulhu, and is now available for sale on DriveThruRPG. Looks great from top to bottom, and the updated maps and design really do it service. And speaking of Stygian Fox, they have a pack available on Bundle of Holding currently. But more importantly, there is a little bit of insight into the company that is somewhat surprising that was included in the Bundle of Holding email that was sent out. Apparently Steve Turner from Britannia Game Design is “is administering the funds from this Bundle offer to help bring Stygian's New Tales of the Miskatonic Valley and The Wild Hunt across the finish line.” Discussed on YSDC.
