~Pigsmoke ep 2 status update~

Normally the episode goes out at 1am CST on Weds, but I still have some of the final bits left (the Previously On, midroll, show notes, etc.), so I'll probably put it out sometime in the evening instead. Look for it then!

Pigsmoke Setup

We crack open Pigsmoke, a game of magical academics and absurd bureaucracy.

We've got a bubbly necromancer, a dusty archeologist, a faux mentalist, and an incredibly petty college rivalry.

"What does 'eponymous' really mean?" and
"Who's the Keeper, anyway?"
