Tuesday Magic Item – Bloodline Chain (A to Z, B)

“I see the House’s Matriarch keeps a tight rein on her scions,” said Gollaon.

“Thank the stars for that.”

“Truth.”

Bloodline Chain

This come in a variety of styles, chains worn around the neck, the wrist, ankle, upper arm or even the waist, in all cases though they are masterfully made and decorated with precious metals and even gems.  A mark, usually a seal, of the house they were made for is almost always incorporated into the design.

PinkCat: Running in the Shade “Surfs Up!” (A different sort of SR campaign report)

To understand what is going on here, you had best read the first PinkCat: Running in the Shade post, but short summary, this is a campaign report for our Shadowrun campaign set in NorCal through the filter of a cartoon made by one of the team members.

Episode Forty Two: Surfs Up!

Guest Starring: DoubleUp and Rani (and in the cartoon everyone else too)

It is spring break and everyone has decided to go to the beach!  This is basically a fan service / remember all the characters? episode with cameos from all of the characters who have graced the cartoon in the past with lots of jokes about California celebrity culture, surfing, tiki style, and suchlike.  Lots of short scenes and visual jokes, a musical number, and just a celebration of the cartoon and California as a whole, a very upbeat and colorful episode that moves nothing forward but is just entertainment.
