7th Sea – The Ballad of The Fantoma Reine Episode 17

After a harrowing crawl through ancient Syrneth ruins punctuated by modern Montaigne sewer systems and various interactions with gems that may or may not steal souls, the crew of the Fantoma Reine now finds themselves face to face with personal Fate Witches of L’Emperor and their only way out of this nightmare to head through his palace, where discovery can lead to beheading.  Furthermore, the witches seem to understand the problematic Black Strands bound to the captain’s heart, but will not reveal their secrets until they are free from the palace.

  1. Loved the acting shenanigans! Gave me flash backs to a game where one of the players were cross playing as a woman. They were gonna put up a shakespearian play where women could not be actors. So he ended up as a man RPing a woman crossdressing as a male actor playing a female role who were in turn corss dressing as part of the play as a man. Fuckin’ players man.

    1. I think we call that ‘The 12th Night Singularity’

  2. The Montaigne arc didn’t disappoint. It was as much a french styling as I could have hoped. That Play… You guys did amazing. (Also strangely Blazing Saddles by the end).
