A season-long anthology TTRPG series using the Cortex Prime system from Dire Wolf Digital and Cam Banks.
Season 1 tells a story of six strangers whose lives are intertwined across realities in a confusing and alarming manner. They're forced to endure the onslaught of the oppressive UCRI and its attempts to stop them at all costs. Thankfully, they have a little help from their friends, a one-legged ne'er-do-well named Gypsum and His Holiness Himself, Jason Christ.
Season 2 tells the story of the spaceship Endeavor, whose mission is to crawl the galaxy mining the tastiest sauces from far-flung asteroids. On board, three hapless robots and one misguided human stumble through one unforeseen mishap to the next, including the murder of the richest robot on board the ship, a massive conspiracy that may underpin the economy on board the entire ship, and an active socialist revolution.
What's in The Rift is a Cortex Prime Actual Play.Season 2 follows three hapless robots (ChroniCarl, PsychoBot 2000, and Helpis) plus their one human companion (Donny Fink) as they are thrust unwillingly into a murder mystery that may have far-reaching political ramifications. Of course, they can't be bothered with that unless dragged kicking and screaming by their GM back into the story.Episode 16 - Wish FulfillmentThe gang tracks Seu77 to the nutrition pill warehouse, and are hot on his trail. After a run-in with Melanie, the ruthless receptionist at the no-name office administering the stockpile, they manage to frustrate and annoy enough office workers to grant them access just to get rid of them. While in the warehouse, a number of surprising revelations come to light, the least of which is the existence of magician lawyers.
