The Fall Of The First Sword #1 – The Executioner’s Blade

Welcome to the launch of the next arc of our Blades In The Dark campaign, titled The Fall Of The First Sword!

This season features all the same characters but with a new objective, so if you want to catch up – go listen to The Black Lotus Gambit!

Based in my city of Osalas, the gang of criminals must navigate the criminal underworld to the best of their abilities and discover what keeps the city trucking along, regardless of the cost…

This time round, with their business set in motion, the gang accept a risky proposal that will force them to outsmart an opponent they cannot take head on – Mylera of the Red Sashes.

The Black Lotus Gambit #7 – An Act Of War

To finish off the prologue of the Dice and suffering Blades In The Dark series, the gang is faced with a major problem. That being the potential assassination of four of the city of Osalas’s major gang leader’s by Trent – the man whose house Blake and Crowley broke into.

Can they get there in time? Will they suggest anything sensible? Why is there a pirate?!?!

…Who knew that my rule as a GM would be “I allow pirates but no clowns”. How did I get here.

The Black Lotus Gambit #4 – Marital Troubles

Now that I’ve recorded all the heists/the big finale for Arc 1 of our Blades In The Dark series, editing these is a whirlwind of beautiful insanity. Case in point, this episode, where Matt somehow invents the bloody postcode lottery. How? I’m still not sure.

2 hours of absolute madness.

Till next week,
