RPPR Episode 09: -10 and counting or PC Death and Dying
Hosted by Ross Payton and Tom Church
Music by Sabrepulse
Synopsis: Death is a fact of life in gaming. A thread I started on rpg.net about PC death generated a bit of discussion about how people handle player characters dying in a game. So, Tom and I discuss how to best plan and deal with characters getting shot, stabbed, poisoned, mangled, maimed, disemboweled, defenestrated, disintegrated and otherwise expiring. Plus, a special Valentine’s Day letter from Tom, anecdotes and more.
Also, we have a new Call of Cthulhu/Delta Green PC mortuary. Please immortalize your dead investigator by entering it in here and view the other fallen investigators.
Shout Outs
Half Life: Full Life Consequences. A hilarious and absurd cartoon based on a horrible Half Life 2 fan fiction.
Idiots of Gary’s Mod: Another Half Life 2 inspired bit of insanity.
Armageddon Empire: An addicting computer strategy game. If you’ve ever wanted to rule a post apocalyptic empire, this is for you.
Pantheon: Narrative Cage Match. A great tabletop storytelling game, where each player tries to control the outcome of the narrative.
Ironclaw RPG: A fantasy tabletop rpg with talking animal people.
Henry Rollins: Rock star and stand up comedian. He gets angry. Also, he is a liar.
