Critical Path

DATELINE: Cape Canaveral, 2043 - Faster-than-light Travel Possible!

“We dedicate this voyage to children around the world,” billionaire philanthropist Killian Shepard said, as he and his small crew of researchers boarded their experimental craft. “It is their future we hope to secure.”

Critical Path is a game of intense interpersonal drama and shifting perspectives set aboard the Victoria II, a prototype starship on its maiden voyage. Join the crew as they race to the edge of possibility, pushing the boundaries of knowledge - of themselves and the universe around them.

Note for people wanting to play There was a waitlist at K for this so I'm going to run once again, I spent a lot of money on tech after all! Then I'm going to take a break from running, and the writers might release run notes so someone else can run it.

Information for Players:Note! This is a low-mechanics, high-drama game involving mature, angst-ridden themes. In fact, it's kind of all about them. It is the result of five twisted minds getting together and asking, "How many times can we twist the angst-knife in two hours?" Players looking for a game where their character can solve the problem and “win” should look elsewhere. Just strap in and enjoy the ride (but don’t say we didn’t warn you). Critical Path deals with grief, guilt, jealousy, betrayal, sexuality, fear, ambivalence, death, regret, and existential questions. We are happy to answer questions regarding specific issues. This is not a game to be taken lightly and it is not for children under 18. Environment notes: This game involves reading a number of short passages in possibly dim light. It also includes (assuming the LARP gods smile upon us) various lighting and audio effects. If you have issues with any of these things, please reach out to us to see what accommodations can be made.

Another year, another Consequences...

I'm back again with a (relatively) new game, "Omega Expedition". AJ has finally relented and agreed to rejoin me as my co-referee. The dream team, back together again, older, greyer, probably slightly more irascible, but otherwise much the same...
