Delta Green “Under New Management” Chapter 1: The Midnight Call Apr 12, 2020

Show notes

When crime scene tech Kevin Wilson wakes to a cryptic 3 a.m. phone call, it sounds like something ripped straight from the thrillers he writes in his spare time. A woman claiming to be a friend of his missing coworker Tim offers no badge number, no agency name—only the promise that Tim needs Kevin’s help now. Swept into a speeding pickup with two strangers who look like they just walked out of a war zone, Kevin is briefed on an “off-the-books” cleanup at a Connecticut logistics office where a late-night shootout has left more questions than answers. As cover stories and half-truths pile up, Kevin has to decide how far he’s willing to go for a friend—and whether he’s ready to see a side of the job no academy ever prepared him for.

About the Chronicle

Under New Management is a Delta Green duet scenario for Twin Cities by Night, adapted from Ross Payton’s adventure of the same name. This short arc follows Kevin Wilson, a forensics specialist with ordinary skills and very human worries, as he’s pulled into the secret world his friend Tim disappeared into. Blending police procedural detail with creeping conspiracy and unseen dangers, the chronicle explores what happens when “normal” professionals are asked to step past the yellow tape and help keep the worst truths out of the public eye.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Twin Cities by Night “Eidolon” Chapter 3: Under Her Gaze Apr 10, 2020

Show notes

In Under Her Gaze, Marco Giovanni’s journey into the Twin Cities deepens as he stands before Rita Giovanni, the elder who made him and the center of his loyalty, fear, and fascination. What begins as a reunion becomes a lesson in control, devotion, and the silent weight of family expectation.

Within the echoing halls of Rita’s lakeside estate, Marco begins to understand that every gesture, every word, and every look carries purpose. As Rita draws him deeper into her world, the boundaries between reverence and subjugation blur. The episode unfolds like a slow, hypnotic ritual—one that explores what it truly means to be seen by someone who owns you body, blood, and soul.

Under Her Gaze continues Eidolon’s descent into intimate horror and spiritual corruption, showing how love, obligation, and faith in family can become the most exquisite forms of damnation.

About the Chronicle

“Eidolon” is the fourth major arc in the Twin Cities by Night Vampire: the Masquerade continuity — following Negligence, Homecoming, and Dread — yet it also stands alone as an introspective, horror-laced drama.

Set in the fall of 2010, Eidolon explores themes of death, obligation, and the unseen cost of power. The story follows Marco Giovanni, a necromancer drawn into the Twin Cities by the command of an elder, where he must expand his clan’s reach while contending with his own haunted past.

A duet chronicle between Adam (as Marco Giovanni) and Chris (as Storyteller), Eidolon continues Twin Cities by Night’s tradition of exploring the personal horror at the heart of Vampire: the Masquerade — this time, through the eyes of one man bound by ghosts both living and dead.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Twin Cities by Night “Eidolon” Chapter 2: The Undercroft Apr 08, 2020

Show notes

In The Undercroft, Marco Giovanni arrives in the Twin Cities to finally meet the elder who summoned him—Rita Giovanni, the woman who first shaped his unlife decades ago. The journey from the safety of Boston to Rita’s lakeside estate is both literal and symbolic: a descent into the underworld of family, obligation, and buried desire.

The episode unfolds like a gothic fever dream. The quiet, snow-tinged city gives way to shadowed corridors, old art, and echoes of the past that refuse to stay buried. When Marco steps across Rita’s threshold, memory and reality begin to blur—revealing the kind of power that only the Giovanni can truly understand.

The Undercroft continues Eidolon’s descent into psychological horror, weaving a story of control, confession, and inheritance. Every whispered command and every remembered lesson hints at a deeper corruption within the family’s gilded legacy.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Twin Cities by Night “Eidolon” Chapter 1: The Flight West Apr 05, 2020

Show notes

In The Flight West, the opening chapter of Eidolon, a single Kindred travels from Boston to the Twin Cities under orders from an elder of his clan. What begins as a quiet journey quickly becomes a meditation on loyalty, control, and the ghosts of family expectation.

The episode introduces Marco Giovanni, a refined but haunted necromancer whose return to the world of his clan sets the stage for a descent into personal and political darkness. Through measured pacing and intimate character focus, The Flight West establishes the tone of Eidolon—a story of faith twisted by power and of duty transformed into obsession.

Told as a duet chronicle between Adam (as Marco Giovanni) and Chris (as Storyteller), this first episode draws listeners into the claustrophobic atmosphere of Vampire: the Masquerade’s world, where family, blood, and death are all tightly bound.

Delta Green “Love The Skin You're In” The Final Chapter: What the Skin Hides Apr 03, 2020

Show notes

At a quiet Manitoba hospital under police lockdown, agent Leah Greenhalgh finally comes face to face with Abraham DeGroot — a man whose body and identity refuse to line up with the file in front of her. While officers treat him like just another repeat offender, Leah sees something far uglier simmering beneath his calm denial and his fear of the family that hasn’t yet arrived. When two strangers with matching scars walk the ward and a routine check of their car reveals something deeply wrong waiting in the back seat, Leah is forced to choose between protecting one terrified patient and tracking a threat that can disappear into any crowd. In the end, the only way to understand what’s happening to Abraham may be to follow the ones who walk away wearing new faces.

About the Chronicle

Delta Green: Love the Skin You’re In is a modern-horror investigation set in the Rust Belt shadows of Cleveland, Ohio. A pair of agents are assigned to a case that begins with a single inexplicable corpse—and quickly expands into a web of unsettling clues, disturbing disappearances, and something lurking beneath the surface of ordinary life.

This chronicle blends procedural tension with creeping existential dread, capturing the signature Delta Green tone: secrets behind every conversation, danger behind every closed door, and the dawning fear that some truths are not meant for human minds.

Slavek's Special Snowflake Adventure 2020! Apr 01, 2020

Show notes

A chaotic, hilarious descent into World of Darkness absurdity — complete with bad accents, questionable magic, and one very persistent narrator trying to keep control of the table. What begins as a simple supernatural encounter quickly becomes a full-blown fever dream of trench coats, silver crosses, and unexplainable dice rolls. Characters stumble through improvised rituals, undead slapstick, and meta-commentary that would make even the storytellers wince.

This one-shot embodies everything you’d expect from Slavek’s 2020 Snowflake Special: sharp wit, wild improvisation, and the joyful unraveling of any semblance of narrative order. It’s pure chaos wrapped in laughter — a festive gift from the storyteller who decided the rules were optional and the snowflakes should fall where they may.

Delta Green “Love The Skin You're In” Chapter 1: The Body on Lower Eastlake Mar 29, 2020

Show notes

In the gray drizzle of a Cleveland morning, two federal agents are called to examine a body discovered in a quiet lakeside neighborhood—one that shows signs no medical textbook can account for. As they begin to investigate, routine interviews and standard procedures twist into something stranger, hinting at a pattern that shouldn’t exist. What starts as a simple death investigation begins to feel like the first tug on a thread that leads somewhere dark, hidden, and deeply wrong.

Pathfinder “We B4 Goblins” Final Chapter: Wagon of Wonders and the Road to Raid Mar 27, 2020

Show notes

Fresh from proving themselves in the Cave of Dark Fear, our newly-minted goblins are officially too big for cages—and that means nobody can tell them not to take a little “heroic” detour on the way home. When they stumble across a brightly painted wagon, a jittery donkey, and a sharp-tongued half-elf in a jester’s cap, temptation comes in many forms: shiny things, bottled mysteries, and the promise of a truly majestic steed.

What starts as a simple encounter in the swamp quickly becomes a very goblin kind of opportunity: grab what you can, make as much chaos as possible, and ride back to the Licktoad village in noisy, jingling glory. But once the tribe sees what the welps have dragged home—especially the strange, sparkly longshank words—the celebration turns into a call to action. By the end of it all, Rita, Mogmurch, and Poo aren’t just goblins anymore… they’re the first fools in line for a brand-new raid.

About the Chronicle

Pathfinder – We B4 Goblins follows a trio of disastrous little horrors as they claw their way up from nameless welps to (hopefully) full members of the infamous Licktoad tribe. Set before the classic goblin antics of We Be Goblins, this chronicle focuses on coming-of-age the goblin way: brutal badge trials, bad decisions, and loudly celebrated stupidity. With Becca as the “big bossy goblin in charge” and Tilman, Mitch, and Chris embodying goblins who love fire, frogs, and dog-killing a little too much, each episode mixes slapstick comedy, gleeful cruelty, and chaotic problem-solving as the welps brave tadpole bogs, creepy caves, and their own worst impulses in a quest to earn their place as true Licktoads.

Pathfinder “We B4 Goblins” Chapter 2: Kettlehead, Dark Fear, and Grabby Cats Mar 25, 2020

Show notes

With their precious toads captured and Rita now swinging a very important new “dog slicer,” the welps march out of the village… only to find their path blocked by the tribe’s biggest bully, Kettlehead, and his very punchable pot-helmet. What starts as posturing over who’s “stupid” quickly becomes a chaotic showdown of bad tactics, burning hands, and improvised alchemy as the welps prove just how serious they are about becoming real Licktoads.

Surviving their first real rival only gets them to the next test: the Cave of Dark Fear, home of a long-dead “spirit” that must be honored with toads and goblin songs. Inside, things get louder, meaner, and far less dignified as each welp belts out their personal anthem, the cave’s secrets rattle loose, and an unexpected, very grabby creature makes a break for it. By the time the echo dies, bruises, badges, and goblinhood will all look a little different than they did back in the welp cage.

Pathfinder “We B4 Goblins" Chapter 1: Badges Before Licktoads Mar 22, 2020

Show notes

Dragged from their “too small now” baby cage and shoved into the center of the Licktoad village, three goblin welps—Poo, Rita, and Mogmurch—are told it’s time to prove they’re useful… or end up in the boneyard. Under the watchful eye (and ready stick) of wrangler Loptop, the would-be goblins face a series of very important tribe traditions: riding something that definitely doesn’t want to be ridden, getting hurt in the most entertaining way possible, and insulting their elders while chewing a burning hot stone. Between flying gourds, questionable theology, and a mysteriously convenient weapon half-buried in the mud, the welps stumble their way toward becoming true Licktoads—and toward a much more dangerous task waiting just beyond the village.
