I just realized I’d never shared my podcast here!
Are you seeking thrilling tales of Adventure and Super-Heroics?
Do you crave the weekly drama of Teenage Hijinks and High School Angst?
Don’t miss the next episode of PROTEAN CITY COMICS!
Protean City Comics (http://proteancity.com/ or Protean City Comics on your podcatcher) is a weekly Masks campaign designed to capture the feel of team based comics within a larger comic book universe. We play with rotating players and GMs, target diversity as one of our greatest goals, and try to make listening feel like picking up a single run that intersects with other ongoing comics.
There are 61 episodes, but don’t let that intimidate you! When new characters are introduced we have a brief 5-10 minute episode that explains who they are, gives a little backstory, and shows some of their mechanics. This allows us to have them jump onto the page when the actual game starts and feel like they have existed in their own comic run!
If you’re listening from the beginning, I strongly recommend listening to those character introductions, but feel free to skip worldbuilding. It’s pretty long and honestly just not required reading, but more intended for people who love Protean City and want to know more of the world!
I’m actually super interested in your Microscope hack. Is there a download of the rules hack anywhere?
I’ve been aware of this podcast for a while – I’m hoping to jump into it as soon as Nerds on a Roll finish their own Masks campaign (which sounds like it’s going to be wrapping up shortly). Looking forward to it!
I hope you enjoy it! We have a ton of fun making it and love Nerds on a Roll as well!
