Fate of the Shadows: Winnipeg

"Where do I even begin? I'm so overwhelmed by what's been happening, nothing seems to even have a sense of beginning or end anymore. I find no matter what I do, literally anything I do, always send me up the ladder towards leading a rebellion I didn't even know I started. Or worse; sending me right to the doorstep of the Yama Kings. I'm just a normal guy... well I guess I should know by now that normal isn't even a thing. I'm just a guy, I guess. I found as a petty thug this stuff happened to me too, where no matter what I did I somehow ended up moving higher and higher into things I didn't understand. I guess when I think about it, maybe the Yama Kings are nothing more than another crime syndicate, or maybe I'm just trying to cope with being a part of a world I can begin to understand." "Uhhhh sir? This is a Wendy's drive thru..." "Oh sorry about that... Yeah can I get a Dave's Triple Cheeseburger combo with a Pibb Xtra ...

  An interview with Wizman by Reporter Wisboy: Reporter Wisboy: What's your opinion on Buckshot? Wizman: He is disappointing. Buckshot has potential, yet he squanders it. If he applied discipline in his life, got himself together, and became Buddhist, he could become quite powerful. However, I do not mind being with him. Reporter: Your opinion on Azrael? Wizman: Azrael is a sociopath. The end result of that barbaric, tribal religion he has sad, slavish devotion to. He has too many bio-enhancements, does he think that will save him from going - - - what do they call it? Cyberpsycho? No, they won't. That man is going to go cyberpsycho one day. Although, like Buckshot, I don't mind being with him. Reporter: Thoughts on Myco? Wizman: What? The mind-rapist? (shakes his head.) (sighs) Myco is dabbling in lesser, degenerate magic. Dangerous. He is going to a bad end. Myco is either going to end incurably mad, or worse, plagued and possessed by noxious spirits. I wish I could help ...

Recap for Fate of the Shadow:Winnipeg for June 22, 2024. The team meets up to do their mission which is to discover who Jay Gatsby is? A mysterious and wealthy figure who showed up in Winnipeg, being exactly like the fictional character of Jay Gatsby from the Great Gatsby. From previous sessions, the team has collected clues and developed theories on who Jay Gatsby is? The clue they found was a hidden picture, showing Gatsby as a normal, wealthy man with family. Could Gatsby be merely a trillionaire who wanted to be Gatsby from the novel and came to reality-shifted Winnipeg? Or is it something weirder, like he is Yama King, as Buckshot has speculated, going by no evidence whatsoever.  The team has contacted this Gatsby and he has offered them a mission, which they accept, coming to his party. This takes up most of the session. First off, the team gets into an argument with the front door guards about Jinx coming in with a battle guitar. She is able to trick the guard...

  THE GHOST COUNCIL OF WINNIPEG Formed out of necessity to resist the influence of the Yama Kings, the Ghost Council is a resistance movement against the malevolent forces of the underworld. Their purpose is twofold: to safeguard the delicate balance between the living and the dead, and to thwart the insidious schemes of the ancient Yama Kings and their thralls. This assembly serves as both a sanctuary and a fortress for those who have transcended the mortal coil. Leading the Council is a group of individuals who have experienced various stages of death.

Gallagher Bates: An entrepreneur who sees death as an opportunity for profit. He possess...
