Hey, I did an interview with Maddix for the CritRpg podcast. Had a lot of fun and managed to be coherent once or twice.
2024-09-01 13:04:50 +0000 UTC View PostDantes leaned on the railing of the private upper floor booth of his club, Viridian Vixen, and listened to the singing coming from below. It was a slow, sultry number, Alessa’s vocals were smooth...
2024-08-31 12:00:08 +0000 UTC View PostDantes walked around the workers, watching as the ground was cleared and they started to mark where the new building would go. With all of the fires, explosions, and deaths in midtown and the docks...
2024-08-29 12:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostDantes walked through the threshold. There were a few dead men in his path as he walked into the building. He could hear what few men Mondego had left struggling against the guard outside as he mov...
2024-08-27 12:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostDantes walked through the main streets of midtown toward Mondego’s manor. He was lit by street lights casting their rays through a thick fog. The streets were busy as they always were at night in...
2024-08-24 12:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostDantes waited in an abandoned house less than ten blocks from Mondego’s Manor. His coat sat on a rusty nail protruding from the wall where it dripped water onto the ground. It was cold, but Dante...
2024-08-22 12:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostDantes could feel the boat beginning to slowly sink as he looked around the cabin. He wouldn’t be strong enough to swim through the holes through which the water was pouring as a rat or a roach, ...
2024-08-20 12:00:01 +0000 UTC View PostIt was almost time. He could feel it in his bones, and his branches. All of his moves had paid off, all of his plans had been carried out, and his contingencies were mapped. He’d stripped Mondego...
2024-08-17 12:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostMondego sat across from a roaring fire in the parlor of his mansion. It was midday, and the heat of the sun combined with that of the fire was sweltering, but he didn’t feel it.

2024-08-15 12:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe room was well lit by torches burning with heatless white flame placed to maximize the spread of their light around the room. The carpet was rich and patterned with a moving mural that showed wa...
2024-08-13 12:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostDantes arrived back in his garden with a pocket full of gold jingling satisfyingly in his pocket. He moved to a small patch of clover in the back corner, and waved his hands so the clover would cle...
2024-08-10 12:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostDantes flew across the docks and shifted into himself midair to land on his feet. He brushed some dust off of his dark green jacket, and stretched a bit. Flying so much was leaving his arms much mo...
2024-08-08 12:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe next several days were spent shoring up all of the work Dantes had been doing to manipulate things within Mondego’s operations as well as outside of them. He stayed in touch with Jayson, Jayk...
2024-08-06 12:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostDantes left uptown feeling relatively good about his meeting overall. It made the problem of taking care of Mondego that much smaller, but he knew it wouldn’t be quite enough. If they’d fully s...
2024-08-03 12:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostNormally Uptown would be the dumbest possible place to hold a meet. You had to bribe guards to even get into it if you didn’t look like you belonged. Even once passed those guards you’d need to...
2024-08-01 12:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostDantes pondered the way the sun shined through the tree branches while he waited for a response to his letter. His mind felt sluggish, likely due to how much he’d packed into his day. It may have...
2024-07-30 12:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostDantes and Jacopo climbed off the backs of their pigeon mounts and skittered onto the soft moss bedding that covered Dantes’s garden. They morphed into their usual forms and Dantes walked over to...
2024-07-27 12:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostThey stood there in silence for a moment, sizing one another up. Dantes was covered in blood, and Godfrey was immaculate in a dark waistcoat with gold buttons that matched his face.

2024-07-25 12:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostDantes mumbled along with the rest of the temple in prayer while he shifted his full focus to looking through Jacopo’s eyes. At this point there was no mental handshake between them, he blinked t...
2024-07-23 12:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostDantes walked in with the rest of the crowd as they all shuffled in, blending into it naturally. There were a few temple guards at the door, but they were busier greeting people than they were look...
2024-07-20 12:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostDantes stood over a bowl of heated water, shaving with a sharpened dagger as he shifted through the perspective of rats, roaches, pigeons, and bats across the city. Everything seemed to be much as ...
2024-07-18 12:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostDantes choked down whey infused milk as he walked along the border of midtown and the docks. It tasted vile, even after mixing in all of the things Orebus had suggested to improve the taste, but he...
2024-07-16 12:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostThey walked back toward the gate into Rendhold at a leisurely pace, the Kobold guards they left behind still none the wiser to the fact that they were carrying away their employer. Wane didn’t ev...
2024-07-13 12:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostDantes and Wane began walking through Buried Claw territory toward the back corner of it where, just like every other kobold enclave, there would be tiny shops set up by outsiders. It was possible ...
2024-07-11 12:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostDantes was finishing a letter when Wane entered his garden. He didn’t look up, but instead finished it, and began to fold it, placing it alongside the other letters he’d prepared. He had some f...

2024-07-06 12:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostDantes approached the young boy who stood guard outside of one of Mondego’s new warehouses. He was a mutt, with some clear dwarven and orcish ancestry given the near full beard and tusks despite ...
2024-07-04 12:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostDantes walked down a wide street, possibly the widest he’d ever been down in his life. The buildings to either side of him seemed to rise up and touch the sky and the water running into the gutte...
