Four strangers awaken with no memory of who they are, where they are, or how they got there. They find themselves inside a deserted capsule hotel called the Namaste, a confusing, impossible space that seems more like a movie set than an actual hotel. Through flashbacks and recollections, they begin to uncover their identities, as well as a mysterious connection to a figure named Mr. Loredo. Is he responsible for their current predicament? Will the motley group ever learn the truth? And why does the bellhop have a chainsaw, anyway? Join The Rag-NERD-rok Crew for an original Fate Accelerated campaign frame inspired by shows such as Lost and Persons Unknown, and find out…in three or four episodes!

Now, three Albuque police officers will pick up where the S*P*A*M*S left off, pursuing the terrifying cult of La Sangre to its ultimate stronghold in the Mexican desert. Can they stop a voracious otherworldly entity from fully penetrating our reality, or will they, too, be swept aside by its agents?

This week, we’re playtesting Ed’s new homewbrew engine, tentatively called Will / Fate! At the tail end of World War II, four prisoners of war escape from a Nazi concentration camp and discover a horrific secret lab buried in the sewers. Nazi scientists experimenting with genetics have created three species of human-animal hybrids that have overtaken the laboratory. In order to reach freedom, the escapees will need to fight their way past the feral Alphas and parley with the dangerously intelligent Omega. Should they leave the otherwise harmless creatures alive in the abandoned lab, or do they risk the Third Reich unleashing an army of übermensch abominations on the unsuspecting Allies?
