Shadows and Shenanigans

Shadows and Shenanigans Productions

A system agnostic actual play, run by a group of friends with a love for all things TTRPG, telling stories of every shade, and everything that comes with it.


Soldier, Doctor, Medium, Magician. Mystery lurks around every corner for the investigative team of the Circle of Mind and Material. As magick courses under and through the streets of the turn of the century city of Newfaire, the circle seeks to keep people safe, and uncover a mystery that may very well tear the world as they know it apart. Mind and Material is Shadow and Shenanigan's debut series, using the Candela Obscura game system, developed by Darrington Press.
