GM: Adam
Players: Tracy O’Brien, Jackson Tegu, Julie Southworth, Sean Nittner
System: Fowl Play
Originally I just showed up to GPNW Online to hangout a bit in Discord, see some friends and cheer on the organizers. When the donut started I watched the pitched and wasn’t planning to play, but when Adam pitched Fowl Play I got interested. It reminded me of Barks in the Dark, but even better. You play geese!
Here’s my recollection of the game. Hazy as it may be.
Bowser, the Golden Retriever, was a twitch streaming sensation that we were out to dognap.
‘PX North the Alpaca, was his handler, who made sure Bowser was at every convention for publicity but kept him on a tight leash.
Bowser was live streaming his final AP at W0AH GAMES convention in Seattle. with another co-celeb Euclid, The Spider.
Our heroes (or villains) were:
- 2%, the Rowdy goose, wanted to free Bowser because being on video is animal cruelty.
- Eliza, the Shifty goose. wanted to be loved more than Bowser.
- Dutchess Esmerelda III, the Phony goose, couldn’t let Bowser be the first celebrity animal to reach 1M viewers on Twitch.
- Gobbler, the Chonky goose, was just a super fan of Bowser who wanted to hangout with him.
Highlights of the game
Honk Truth to Power: busting through the front door and gobbling up dice. Assumed to be part of someone’s cosplay. Eliza finding a wizard and perching on his staff. 2% jumping on a table and interrupting a Warhammer game, Dutchess getting selfies with fans, and Gobbler sneaking into the service corridors to get closer to Bowser.
No Alpacas, No Masters: Interrupting the live stream by making mess, luring Bowser to follow us and covering our tracks with vomited up d4s and knocked over Gatorade coolers. PX North chasing us wit ha vengeance.
18+ Honks. A+. A group of streamers misreading the name 2% and renaming him 2d6!
