So AJ will have a good several days of posts for next week to start the story off. So hopefully Next Monday you’ll see the beginning of our adventures in Echoes. It didn’t start out how AJ intended it and that’s okay that’s kinda the point.
Anyway, some of you have seen the Newsletter form pop up again. We are attempting to think of something we can do in the newsletter that is unique to only it and hopefully pull in some readership there.
AJ’s thinking about putting a puzzle for you guys to solve (or maybe help us solve or see who can solve it faster). And maybe a monthly adventure story just there. We’ll see.

I don’t have much world building I can share with you right now. But we have some random tables and a link we can share. Monte Cook Games has updated their SRD and added some new things to it and there are a lot of links running around that can give you a good run down of the game we are using as the backbone of our little adventure. You can check out one of AJ’s favorites at Old Gus’ Cypher System Reference Document.
Some random tables for generating our next location:
