Sponsored by Fringe ----more---- We give a try out to "The Velvet Book" a fan conversion of Monster and Other Childish Things to allow the playing of Persona. This episode is the introduction, and we talk about a bunch of basic things. Such as: what is Persona? What is Monster and Other Childish Things? Who are the characters? What is the game's premise? And so on.

Monsters and Other Childish Things > The Dreadful Secrets of Candlewick ManorThe Dreadful Secrets of Candlewick Manor was a published campaign written by Benjamin Baugh using the One Roll Engine. In our wrap up, we look at expectations vs. realities of a truly sandbox game, discuss the dice system, and give insights into our own childhoods and inspirations.

Monsters and Other Childish Things > The Dreadful Secrets of Candlewick ManorAfter the whirlwind of events last episode, Fred is rushed to the hospital... But, to everyone's surprised it turns out Fred has... a... plan... Well, not knowing where this is going, the kids all come together to help Fred with his plan. Lord only knows where this episode is going...

I was fortunate to talk to Ross Payton of RPPR, the Mixed Six, and Base Raiders in addition to lots of freelance writing on everything from Red Markets and Eclipse Phase to Monsters and Other Childish Things and probably more.

Monsters and Other Childish Things > The Dreadful Secrets of Candlewick ManorThe day that Roger has be waiting for what feels like an eternity is finally here. The first day of school! Fred is given special rules that he struggles to remember, while the others try to keep up with their teacher's lectures. Meanwhile, Rodger is having a great time at school and everything seems to be going great! That is until an event with one of the other kids threatens to end the school day early...

Monsters and Other Childish Things > The Dreadful Secrets of Candlewick ManorThe kids take a day to handle some personal items. Damien catches up with Miss Silverdale, Rodger keeps looking in the Candlewick Mystery, and Fred with the help of Elle and Desi makes a move on Josie that goes horribly wrong...

Monsters and Other Childish Things > The Dreadful Secrets of Candlewick ManorWhile Roger is off at the dentist, the kids look for ways to find out more about the Candlewick family. Damien goes to Ms Silverdale and tries to work out a deal. Then, in Roger's absence, an unexpected child comes up with a plan. What could possible go wrong?

Monsters and Other Childish Things > The Dreadful Secrets of Candlewick ManorThe children go to bed after a tiring set of events, only to realize they are seem to be dreaming on the moon... together... Later, the kids meet a new friend named Damien and think that he is so cool, its like their almost FORCED to like him. The gang and Damien proceed to meet with an acquaintance of his and find some new information about the web they've been caught in.

Monsters and Other Childish Things > The Dreadful Secrets of Candlewick ManorThe crew finds a strange man with a boy who look like they are up to no good. As they get closer, Sebastian makes a mistake that will change the course of his life forever... The others simply try to go on, struggling to comprehend what just happened, while Roger, obsessed with an finding answer for the Candlewick mystery, confronts his grandfather about the past.

Monsters are real. You know because you have one. He's more fun and way tougher than all the other kids' monsters. Try not to let him eat your friends. “Monsters and Other Childish Things” is a distressingly fun and funny roleplaying game about kids and the relationship-devouring horrors from beyond time and space who love them. Players take the roles of kids and the vicious monsters who are their best friends in all the world -- and the source of all kinds of otherworldly trouble.

Welcome to our potluck for Monsters and Other Childish Things! We all brought some foods from our childhood (which we ate BEFORE the recording this time) and hashed out what we thought about playing as our kids and their monstrous best friends, regarding both the mechanics and the flavor of the system.

Filled with determination, our heroes and their monsters decide to take down the Faerie Queene and rescue the enslaved kids.

Monsters and Other Childish Things > The Dreadful Secrets of Candlewick ManorTrying something new, the group decides to try a new narrative building mechanic from the campaign book. What comes out is a messy fur ball of events that involve Gesepie, Dr. Candlewick, Sarah Candlewick, Miles Candlewick, and Matron Fineliner. What does it all mean for the gang at Candlewick Manor?

Having been whisked away to, well, Fairy World, the kids decide it’s best to explore. After encountering a few other trapped kids, they discover they’re slaves to the Faerie Queene. Naturally, the gang figures if they can get to her they can get themselves and the other kids out. They have to watch out, though; there’s a Banshee out there on the prowl.

Monsters and Other Childish Things > The Dreadful Secrets of Candlewick ManorOh no! Somebody left Fred out on his own and now he and Poe are wandering the vale all by themselves. Surely this can't go bad right? Meanwhile, the others start digging into some occult studies and find a strange chapel. Whatever the Candlewick's are up to, it can't be any good...

On a hot summer day, the Queen Anne’s Landing Renaissance Faire is in full swing. As we dive headfirst into Monsters and Other Childish Things, five rambunctious kids and their horrible eldritch monster friends are here to have a fun day trip. But what happens when kids suddenly go missing from the faire?

Monsters and Other Childish Things > The Dreadful Secrets of Candlewick ManorFred tries to undo the wrong that he did to Josie. At least he will once he figures out WHAT he did wrong. Meanwhile, Sebastian performs his great escape from the Manor in order to find some dirt on the Candlewick family. Unfortunately for him, it is not what he finds that he should be concerned with, but instead what finds him...

Monsters and Other Childish Things > The Dreadful Secrets of Candlewick ManorAfter the kids meets their new prefect, Fred decides to help her move into her new room, but begins to experience a weird feeling in his gut. Meanwhile, the others go to investigate more clues about Misenwrath and the manor itself at the library. There they find a young artist. This eventually leads the group down a hidden tunnel to another mysterious car, this time with its head lights pointing right at them!

Monsters and Other Childish Things > The Dreadful Secrets of Candlewick ManorMoving always sucks, you know, losing all those friends you never have, meeting all the new people you never wanted to, it just sucks. Unfortunately for these children, that's exactly what happens when a mysterious man in a limousine picks them up and takes to Candlewick Manor, Home for the Unwanted and Unloved. Here, the children get to meet all their new "friends" and show off their powers. After taking a test with the utmost honesty and integrity, the kids realize that the statues keep staring at them. Huh... that's weird... So is this sudden gust of cold wind... And this blanket that's wrapping its self across my face...

Monsters and Other Childish Things > One ShotWhen coming back from Christmas break, some children notice something is very different at their school. All of their favorite teachers have been replaced by eccentrics and creeps. The kids have to go on an adventure to figure out what happened to all of their beloved teachers. Also, did we mention that over Christmas the kids got some new friends: big, hairy, scary new friends? With their help the kids seem to be able to do almost anything! Almost.

Five Nights at Freddy's is a scary video game about a creepy restaurant with even creepier animatronic robots. In other words, it is a perfect fit for Monsters and Other Childish Things. A group of kids visit Freddy's and get very special prizes that grant them strange new powers (and a very special friend!). Unfortunately for them, it also teleports them into Freddy's after the restaurant closes. Can they survive the night? Even if they survive that night, can they survive the other nights? I mean it says FIVE nights, that implies more than one night. Anyway, enjoy this special horrific one shot, just in time for Halloween!

Hello internet! We’d like to give a warm welcome to all of our new listeners. We’re very glad to have y’all. Most of you are here looking for Mrs. Frieda’s Halfway Home, which begins here. This is our flagship campaign.  Run in Monsters and Other Childish Things, it focuses on a group of supernaturally gifted (or cursed) teenagers in a Halfway Home in the midwestern city of Troy. They get into and cause a lot of trouble. This story is in a season break; Seasons 1 and 2 are all available for you right now Our currently posting games: Eclipse Phase, and Rogue Trader. Both are science fiction games, but radically different in settings. Eclipse Phase is a hard-scifi horror espionage game, while Rogue Trader is an exploration and discovery game in the Warhammer 40k setting. Other things worth listening to: check out the sidebar for all of our campaigns and one-off games. You can find us on twitter, @TheDrunkandUgly, on Facebook, and on our forums (available by the handy button on the right of the page). We also do a twice-weekly Youtube Let’s Play channel! All of the show’s episodes are available on iTunes, as well as on the site. Join in the conversation in the comment threads of the episodes, as well as the active forum!

Welcome to Alpha Elementary, where the students are handpicked for enrollment and are trained to become the next leaders of the world. It is your last day before graduation and time for the awards ceremony, when something goes wrong. Will you face your fears and take your place among the leadership elite?This episode of Fire n Dice comes to you from Owlcon 2013 and is played through using Monsters and Other Childish Things rule set. This intro episode runs smoothly and is a great start to what could become a wonderful campaign. As you'll see in later episodes, however, the time constraints of running a four hour convention game tend to rush story, but a fun time was still had by all.

After saving the world from an evil cult during a summer road trip, a group of friends and their monster pals find themselves trapped in a strange world, where an omniscient narrator distantly rumbles life lessons about crossing the street and not washing clothes with gasoline, and that's not even mentioning the flying monkey. Can they figure out what's going and who's behind it? Will the subcommittee reconvene before Mr. Speaker suspends the parliamentary session? Find out in this special one shot of Monsters and Other Childish Things!

It's been a long time since the last time I've posted and this year has been a real test on everyone. Just so you know, I haven't been on the blog site because I'm still trying to put together a solid gaming group, which isn't always easy, but I have been busy in the meantime. So let me just go over a few things that I've been working on and will hopefully have much more for you as 2013 approaches. First off, Owlcon 2013 is coming up mid February and I will be running Monsters and Other Childish Things as one of my games. I'm running a modded version of it I developed based off the Shin Megami Tensei line of Japanese games. The two games just seemed to complement each other. If you're not familiar with the series, it centers around a group of kids, usually teenagers, who get a strange program on their phone that allows them to summon demons as the world around them is being destroyed. The players use demons to fight other demons and uncover a dark and interesting story. The second game I'm running is Big Eyes Small Mouth, and this time I'll be running in my frontier setting of Marukah. It's called Six Gun Samurai and you play as warriors sent in to investigate strange happenings in a small town. If you've ever seen Sukiyaki Wester Django you'll have an idea of the kind of setting I'm going for. After I get those time sensitive projects taken care of, I have two stories I'm in the process of writing, two game systems I'm working on writing up and publishing, a group I'm putting together for more campaigns and recordings, and continually developing the world I began with Anima so long ago. I will keep you updated as more becomes available. As for recordings, check back after Owlcon, or if I can get players together, much sooner. Believe me I want to play again, too.

Hello there, Internet!  Somewhat long time, and, uh. . . infinitely no see.  One of these days we should do a webcam thing so that we can rectify that.  UNTIL THEN, though, you will have to make due with our wondrous vocal patterns.  Listen to these MP3s while looking at the spectral view.  It’ll blow your mind, seriously. Wow, that got off-topic fast.  In any case, do we have some news for you: First and foremost, the Sordid Dystopia Kickstarter is doing amazingly well.  I applaud all of you who are backing us presently.  I never expected us to reach our initial funding goal in under a day, or twice our funding goal in under a week, and I never expected us to be talking about reaching almost triple our funding goal before this project ended.  Seriously, you guys are the best. Second, Nate and I did a roundtable discussion of Monsters and Other Childish Things with one Ross Payton.  He apparently does a roleplaying podcast too.  We’re going to be in their 70th Episode “There’s Monsters in the School, Tom.”  The episode isn’t yet out, but it should be out shortly after this episode goes live.  I figured I just needed to get the word out on this Role Playing Public Radio show Ross and his friend Tom do. Thirdly, Nate got us all into the Little Fears Nightmare Edition recently.  We’ve played 8 sessions of a campaign composed of prefab adventures from the books, the Campfire Tales series, and things that we’ve written ourselves.  It’s shaping up to be a pretty rad set of things and hopefully it’ll be totally awesome when it gets posted here eventually.  What this means for your right now is that we have a whole bunch of Little Fears goodies for every one of our listeners: Nate recently wrote a scenario for a contest run by Little Fears superfan Jack O’Tears.  The theme of the contest was Duality, and Nate wrote a whole adventure about a Monster and a child who complete each other.  You can get the adventure here or go to the Little Fears Facebook Group and take it from there.  It had to be fairly short, so be prepared to improv or write a couple things and make it your own for your group.  He also ran a quick playtest of it and we will be posting the AP to our […] The post The Drunk and the Newsies – 2-14-2012 appeared first on The Drunk and The Ugly.

Happy New Year, Internet!  We’re comin’ at you with an all new Newsies for an all-new year!  Listen in as we answer all of your questions (including ones you never thought you had)! If you missed it, we will be posting our interview with Sci-Fi Laboratory on this site next Wednesday.  Be sure to check it out. We have a whole bunch of new campaigns in the works and a bunch of other ones waiting in the wings.  So many games we shall play.  Systems include Wild Talents, Monsters and Other Childish Things, A Dirty World (we are really on an ORE kick I guess), Legend of the Five Rings, and Seventh Sea, and at least two of those campaigns are very Sci-Fi or Cyberpunk. Ship of Fools and United We Stand are coming to an end in the next few weeks here.  We’ll be breaking from the campaigns to post one-off games in Sordid Dystopia and other systems before returning to 2 more mini-campaigns: Justice For All, a Sordid Dystopia Campaign that focuses on the Umbra which was going to be a one-shot and ended up being 7 or 8 sessions. The Crucible, a Deadlands prefab adventure that was supposed to be a one-shot and ended up being 4 sessions (are you sensing a theme here?) Additionally, following the end of Ship of Fools and United We Stand, we will begin our Sordid Dystopia Kickstarter!  There are an increasing number of rewards for this beautiful thing.  Our own Nathan Knapp has written a novella set in the Sordid Dystopia Universe, several chapters of which will be included in this project. Since we’ve been getting so many questions about this, if you are interested in the playtest copy of Sordid Dystopia, it is one of the earlier rewards.  If you give a mere $10 and we get enough funding, you will receive a copy of  the playtest notes.

Picture in your mind a far off time ago:  Before the AP Site,  the Podcast, and even back before this group existed.  Way, way back in December of 2010, Sean and I were playing Minecraft together, and he told me that he was interested in playing Monsters and Other Childish things.  At the time, I was running the Road Trip campaign for my friends nearby, and I had written a few side scenarios that I wanted to test out.  I told Sean about these, and he sounded interested.  He contacted his friend Nate and got him somewhat interested. At the same time, I met Alex through another Minecraft server and asked him if he’d like to play along in some short games with Sean and his (at the time) unknown friend.  Over the coming week, I would talk to each person about the characters they’d want to make, and by the end, we had Max Chang (the asian mathelete extraordinare), Daniel Kerington (the hero with as much courage as he has not-brains), and Charlie Bale (the lovable douchebag).  In the discussion portion of the first game, we also talked up BattlePet Network, a stupid little TV show about training monsters and saving the world through card games. As for the full setting, we’re playing Ross Payton’s Road Trip, which is basically a Summer Road Trip to save the world from an evil cult.  This setting is wildly different from the standard Monsters and Other Childish Things setting in a lot of ways: It’s set during the summer, so no one has to go to school It’s a series of adventures all around the country Less imperative is placed on the “being a kid” aspect, and more on over-the-top goofy action and fun It is very story-driven One of the reasons that I loved Road Trip when I was starting out with Monsters is that it’s a fully-written campaign.  If you don’t know what your player-base is, Monsters is kind of a bear to write for.  Road Trip simplifies things a lot by basically being a D&D campaign set in the Monsters Universe.  It’s a series of small adventures all around the country which add up to stopping a big bad evil guy.  And it’s a whole lot of fun. Why is this session called “Session 0”?  Because this entire adventure is non-canon.  As I said, I wanted to playtest some […] The post Road Trip Session 0 – Ed’s Diner appeared first on The Drunk and The Ugly.

We’ve talked about Monsters and Other Childish Things time and time again on The Drunk and The Ugly because it is my favorite RPG and because we play it very often. In spite of all that, we have yet to post a session of it.  Until now. A few weeks ago, our friend Nate (the guy who’s hosting this server) finally got his first set of dice ever, despite how he’s been gaming for over 10 years. Understandably, he wanted a medium to use them in. The Road Trip crew was unavailable and none of us really had anything prepared, so Nate wrote up a one-shot setting in about an hour. This setting was Mrs. Frieda’s Home for Terrible Freakish Children, and ended up becoming sort of a side campaign that is more flexible player-wise, as it’s a fixed position with lots of children, so kids can jump in and out as they need to. In a nutshell, Mrs. Frieda’s Halfway Home for Children (its official name) is a halfway home for children taken from abusive homes. Why has it gotten the reputation that it has? Because most of the children here responded to the abuse in their homes with abuse of their own. Everyone has their own reasons for being here, and most of them are never going to leave this place with a new family. While everyone has secrets to hide, some kids have worse secrets than others: Some kids have “special friends” that would freak out everyone in the city, and others are slowly transforming into eagles. Not everyone has these kinds of problems, mind you, but a few kids within this establishment do. Mrs. Frieda’s is about the life and times of these children. Experienced players of One-Roll Engine games may notice that we’re not using the hard and fast ORE rules. This is mainly because the One-Roll Engine becomes very cumbersome in games with large numbers of players, and especially in Skype games. We’re using a homebrewed version that involves a single d10 and rolling under the combined number of a stat and skill. Height and Width are determined by margins of success (and in combat, a separate die is rolled for height). It’s different, but it works much better for our group.
