Setting the Stage Episode 75 – Masks, Capitalism, and Coming of Age (Joel and Critical Bits)

Published by

Joel tells us about his actual play podcast, Critical Bits! The campaign was a teen super hero story using the Powered by the Apocalypse system Masks. The Masks system is great for teen drama and coming of age stories for superheroes that still live with their parents, have school, and don’t know who they want to be yet. Joel and the players did a great job of capturing those feelings in a world where superpowered individuals are under threat. The government attempts to register all teen superpowered people and there are tons of organizations looking to kidnap superpowered teens to enslave them. Does good win in the end? Well… probably. That’s how these stories work, right? Right?

You can find Critical Bits on your podcast app or learn more at Do You Validate’s website.
Joel’s current show is called Oddity Roadshow that you can check on on his website as well.

Hello,

I’m Isaac

Welcome to the GoCorral website! I’m Isaac Shaker and this is a place for me to write about D&D and occasionally other topics. I host a podcast called Setting the Stage that interviews different DMs about their campaigns. I’m currently focused on completing the Cimmeria campaign setting and turning it into a book.

Travis tells us about his world of Tetara. Travis runs Tetara as a paid game on StartPlaying. Each group's campaign runs in a different region of Tetara. As the campaign progresses that group gets to shape their region through their actions. After a region has been molded through play, Travis tends to run a second campaign in that region to explore the consequences of the first campaign.Here's a map of Tetara.If Tetara sounds interesting to you, Travis runs Tetara campaigns on StartPlaying.If you want to check out Travis's book series, Sanctum of Aevum, its available on Amazon.Check out the Setting the Stage website!Want to be on the show?
