Greetings: On My Way to Champions Now
Hello Adept Play community! I’m Aldo, and I’ve been promising Ron that I’d start posting here for at least a year. Online spaces are not very intuitive for me, however, so it took me a while to figure out how to do this. Indeed, this is a test to see if I HAVE indeed figured […]

Youthful heroes + one dad
Since I’m not recording play with people under majority age, you get to see me talk about doing it instead. It’s the same group who’s been playing Tunnels & Trolls, preceded by The Pool for some of them: five young teens and the father of two of them, plus me. We are playing Villains & […]

COED-X or Mutants ’91
Our every other Friday Champions 6 is on hiatus for a while and the group has decided to slide our occasional Marvel Super Heroes game into center stage. As you might have guessed, we are playing mutants who are college students. Three of us went to Salisbury (State) University in Salisbury MD (USA) in the […]
