RPG Reanimators

A discussion-based podcast for GMs where we break down horror ttrpg scenarios for systems like Call of Cthulhu and Delta Green, discuss what worked for us, what didn't, what changes we made while running them, and how it all turned out for the table.

    S1:E45 – Exploring the Limits of Call of Cthulhu Scenarios - Consultation with Paul Fricker

    Episode Notes In this episode, Alex and Nathan meet with Paul Fricker as a consulting expert to discuss the core essences of what makes a Call of Cthulhu scenario, as well as explore the limits of scenarios for the TTRPG system. You can find Paul Fricker's website here: https://paulfricker.substack.com/ Or chat more with us on our Discord server: https://discord.gg/R8Q6aeyVk8 If this episode was helpful to you, and you'd like to support us and get early access to episodes and other content, consider following or subscribing to us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/RPGReanimators Consultations are free-form topic discussions based on our own GM experiences, preferences, and gaming philosophies. We hope some of this gibbering madness can be helpful to other GMs dealing with, or considering using, these issues at their table (or at least add new and exciting chattering voices inside listener's heads).

    S1:E44 – TTRPG Scenario Editing and Formatting - Consultation with XPLovecat

    Episode Notes In this episode, we consult with Leslie "XPLovecat" Horn as a resident expert on scenario editing and review to help us understand some ways to help turn that splatter of words on a page into a properly monstrous scenario. We also discuss ways that scenario authors may find or summon their own editors, as well as the proper pronunciation of "Vaesen", which Nathan totally gets right. Consultations are free-form topic discussions based on our own GM experiences, preferences, and gaming philosophies. We hope some of this gibbering madness can be helpful to other GMs dealing with, or considering using, these issues at their table (or at least add new and exciting chattering voices inside listener's heads).
