Role Playing Journals
Hi everyone, I hope that this is in the right place. I run tabletop rpgs and occasionally play in them. Since 1991 or so, I've written up after action reports or role playing journals, turning what happened at the table into stories. I keep these as accurate to what happened as I can (up to and including both audio and video recording sessions in the last few years).

That being said, I thought I'd post here (if that's allowed) when I post new rpg journals in the few places I do so across the internet.

What made me think of this thread was the most recent game I wrote up. I finally got the rpg journal done for the d20 Modern game "Walker, Texas Danger" that Steve ran based on The Walking Dead comic and television show. The entry can be found at the following places:

http://forum.abyssalgaming.com/blog/7/en...as-danger/
http://www.penandpapergames.com/forums/e...xas-Danger

Players were:

Jed Caliber - Medic (Kevin)
Chester Brickhouse - Heavy Weapons (Adam)
Sam "God" Everready - Sniper (Chris)

I'll eventually get audio of this uploaded at http://community.roleplayingpublicradio....maxwriter/

RE: Role Playing Journals
I ran the Call of Cthulhu scenario Leaflet Mission at CaesarCon 2013 for four players on the Pretty Lady, a B-17 Bomber dropping leaflets on Germany during WWII. My players chose the co-pilot, flight engineer, ball turret gunner, and waist gunner. I also used a model of a B-17 Bomber as the centerpoint for the game. I plan to run another scenario involving the Big Money at CaesarCon 2014.

Role playing journals of the game can be found here:

RE: Role Playing Journals
I've finally been able to run a Call of Cthulhu game again! In this case, it was an introductory game for a couple of people who have not done much role playing. I chose The Case from Curse of Cthulhu as the introductory scenario. The role playing journals can be found here:

http://www.yog-sothoth.com/blog/172/entr...-part-1-1/
http://www.yog-sothoth.com/blog/172/entr...-part-1-2/

I plan to run again within a week or so and finish up the scenario for them.

Investigators are:

Mary-Jane Holland (researcher) played by Caitlin
John McKeefe (burglar) played by John

Additionally, I audio and video recorded the game session. Audio is not up yet but the playlist of six vids of the game can be found here:
