A session of Eotenweard, my PbtA game of Dark Age monster-hunting, run as part of this months Gauntlet Community Open Gaming (GCOG) weekend … a Celtic Christian King needs an unkillable witch, killed …
One of the players got it right when they said … “I’m sitting here processing how it ended and realised that the most inhuman character (literally a sometimes incorporeal spirit) ended up growing the most as a person, the most human character ended up losing their humanity, the on-the-surface “lighter” cleric slayed the maybe-but-maybe-not a monster in a religious fervour and the on-the-surface “darker” cleric wept for the monster she was sworn to slay. That symmetry in our character arcs is just so satisfying!”
It was a great session!
