Detour 14-17: New Prosper, Old Problems

Welcome back to the Detour! Even though we’re missing Ian in this recording - he had better, cooler things to do than record with us nerds - we still get into it: Fran’s memories, Ibra’s privilege & legacy, JJ’s feelings about Samira… we’ll talk about Javi, Brama, Ravona, Cecilia, Thorgunn, and more! Among them all, we’ll try to crack open how to make a compelling NPC for your story. And of course, we’ll answer some questions from you, our wonderful listeners!

We’re making the stories we want to see in the world, one game session at a time! Join us for our first season, as we dive to the heart of the City of New Prosper: a techno-magical metropolis on the rise, where those who seek to craft themselves a new future will first have to settle the debts they owe the past. New episodes every other Monday.
