Late-winter/early-spring allergies and colds continue to cause havoc among the Order, compelling us to delay our inaugural session for our next campaign by a week.
However, we did settle on a winner, and by a rather large margin. We'll be kicking off next week with an anticipated dozen-or-so-session campaign of Achtung! Cthulhu. The wiki can be found here.

In the meantime, if you want to hear the Order's very own two Davids, as well as Bill from "The Veil of Isis", participating in a 5th Edition D&D online campaign run by David L.'s long-time gaming buddy Alex, check out The Mists of Time; session recordings will be going up on YouTube and also linked via Obsidian Portal, so you've got two ways to track the campaign's progress. The first session (character creation) is also embedded below:
The launch of the Paris-Constantinople "Oriental Express" airship route brings three Dramatic Characters together to convey a vital document - and foil a Dastardly Plot. The conclusion of this Adventure Entertainment.
We also spend the first 20 minutes or so discussing what we're going to do next.
Here at the Esoteric Order HQ, we are working on a little soon-to-be-revealed secret project. Part of this project involves collating a "sound collage" of favorite moments from past recorded sessions, and we thought that we'd open up nominations to the general audience.
So: out of our hundreds of hours of recorded sessions, are there any small moments that still stick with you? Critical dice rolls, moments of high drama or low comedy, tragic deaths and heroic sacrifices, and so on.
If so, please leave your nominations in the comments section below and our Master Archivist will delve into the back catalog and retrieve them.
The notable attendees of Count de Navarre's wedding receive a mysterious invitation to meet at a Bayernese coaching inn on the Winter Solstice. Who sent the invitation, and for what purpose? And what other guests await at the inn?
In this mostly-improvisatory Story, the Dramatic Characters convene at the island of Barataria for a most unusual wedding. Can the Characters safely find their way through the Mist and Fog before the Explosive Conclusion?
