Welcome to Games In The Dark as we begin our Fallout 2D20 tabletop RPG campaign set in the Appalachian wasteland.

The settlement of Land O Smiles celebrates its first Founders Day. One year of survival. One year of order in a chaotic world. Then the music stops.

What starts as a simple welfare check on two tarberry farmers turns into a violent confrontation inside a blood soaked barn. Shotgun blasts. Grenades. Severed limbs. A man claiming he does not know his own wife. And something crying in the dark.

In this episode you meet:

Throckman the Sneed, a vault dweller with suspiciously good luck and a fondness for explosives

Lenny, a hardened ghoul who has seen decades of brutality

Nanny, a Mr Handy caretaker with a buzzsaw and strict rules about child safety

Crane, a former raider attempting to live inside a settlement he does not respect

We are using the official Fallout 2D20 system by Modiphius and running it inside TaleSpire for tactical combat and cinematic roleplay.

If you enjoy Fallout lore, tabletop RPG actual play, DnD style campaigns, post apocalyptic storytelling, or gritty character driven chaos, this series is for you.

Crowley and Bronz begin their road to recovery, both physically and regarding their fractured relationship. As the pair makes their way back to the Drowned Lion Inn, they encounter a strange woman and a spirit of the wilds bearing an ominous proposition. While they mull over their next move back at the Drowned Lion, Crowley recuperates while Bronz crafts a nefarious ritual.

The Rat Raiders head north with the knowledge that Hiam seems more nervous in light of recent events. A chance encounter with a pair of Witch Hunters from the Occultis Templarum proves dramatic, and the crew moves through a fever dream in North Remoir when they reach the farm of Hiam’s daughter. What’s real, what’s a drug induced stupor? Your guess is as good as ours.
