Series IX: Cyclopolis of the Damned - Introduction

We kick off our Third Cycle around our table with the beginning of Series IX, entitled “Cyclopolis of the Damned.” We first are introduced to Kimin Bilaskis the Shaman who harvested power from a dead god and carries another around his neck, Milio Miretti the Bard who escaped the slaughter of Lucco and lived with the Fjord-Dwarves, and Uraziti the Spellblade, youngest son of the Shah of Ashkeshahr and hidden weapon of a secret order.

Then the dungeon master asks a few questions to fill out some details of the party’s lives and travels before heading the the walled dwarven city of Law.

We just launched a Patreon, so if you’d like to support us, check it out! Supporting us on Patreon will let you vote on upcoming games you want to hear us play in C-Sides and gets you an invite to a discord channel. You can also get an unabridged version of our podcast feed starting with Series IX, more like you’re sitting at the table with us. This week, the Patreon episode includes discussions we had while crafting bonds and flags, some silly game ideas we riff on, and more jokes. The feed will also include wrap-up episodes after each individual series, game readings and discussions, and occasionally some additional C-Sides. We will be uploading all of our notes from our games to the Patreon for your reference. You could also get all of our future releases, starting with the Dualist (not a typo) playbook for Dungeon World and the Streak playbook for World Wide Wrestling!

We have shirts and stickers for sale over at thechimaera.bigcartel.com!

You can follow us on Twitter or Instagram AT chimaeracast.

The Bard playbook is part of the core Dungeon World rules. The Shaman can be found in Grim World from Boldly Games. And the Spellblade can be found in Incomplete Adventurer by Trevor Murray & Ben K. Rosenbloom.

Series VIII: The Blood of Pearls - Chapter 0

Hello!

Welcome back for a new Series. This is the session zero where we get the chance to introduce Ukhaz, Anep, and Bale. We set up a few bonds and flags and even get a little roleplay in there for fun. I hope you guys are excited, I (Zach) am very excited for you to see how these players really bring each other to life.
