Miskatonic University Podcast Actual Play Presents: Ebon Eaves, a semi-improvised adventure for Tremulus, the Lovecraft-inspired horror role playing game based on the Apocalypse World engine. The game and playset are by Sean Preston. This is a behind-the-scenes post script with some of the background discussion players had about the rules and the challenges of a system that is based on improvisation. We begin with a chat that immediately followed our first session (Episode 1), which mostly covered character creation and world building. Then we skip ahead in time to a discussion that followed the conclusion of the scenario in Episode 3, when Randall gives us a peek behind the veil to discuss what it was like to use the Tremulus mechanics to unfold the semi-improvised plot.
