Mage: The Podcast

Does the ⁠NWO⁠ control the ⁠CIA⁠ or the ⁠FBI⁠? How entwined in the ⁠NSA⁠ are the ⁠Virtual Adepts⁠? Adam and Terry talk NSA, CIA, FBI, what mages know about them and other weird 90s conspiracies in ⁠Project Twilight⁠.

Join Satyros and Walking into Shadow for a wide-ranging discussion on matching effect with paradigm, emulating other games, minimal and maximal interpretations of the rules, and Terry just yelling about things.

What books do we wish ⁠Sorcerers Crusade⁠ had gotten? What do we pull from these ⁠historical settings⁠? Should we be using ⁠pillars⁠ in the modern era? Terry and Adam answer your questions!

What strange things exist at the intersection of Night-Folk? Why a creepy circus! Mage: The Podcast is joined by ⁠Werewolf: The Podcast⁠ and ⁠Changeling: The Podcast⁠ to talk ancient terrors, ⁠thirsty gods⁠…and clowns.

Mage: The Ascension (First Edition) was a bold vision of game, but how to follow it up? Satyros provides an oral history of how Mage changed over its roughly first year from Book of Chantries to Book of Shadows.

How do you run paranormal investigation with access to ⁠Time 2⁠? Does anyone besides the ⁠Technocracy⁠ do this regularly? Bryce and Terry talk weird ⁠artifacts⁠, team dynamics and investigations that make sense in WoD.

Have you ever said “My game needs more boats?” ⁠ World of Darkness: Blood-Dimmed Tides ⁠ talks ⁠new fae⁠, blood-sweating vampires, Hermetic boats and aquatic systems for days. What side are you on in the war between ⁠Dagon⁠ and ⁠Vatea⁠?

In a world rife with supernatural threats how do mortals take back the night? How do we add these actors and agencies to our games? Terry talks ⁠ Hunter: The Reckoning 5th Edition ⁠, desperation, ⁠SAD post glow-up⁠, and avatar lineages.

John Beckwith joins to talk fiction involving the Technocratic Union and the Garou Nation in ⁠One Giant Leap for Inhumankind⁠ and then Satyros talks things that didn’t make it into Victorian Mage in Scandals & Fisticuffs.
