Outlaws of the Outlands #1: Cosmic Concordance - Part 1
Welcome to Outlaws of the Outlands, a weird west adventure where our players act as Gunslingers of the sprawling Outlands of Planescape. Where Cosmic Concordance is the highest of planar law. Last time, we met: Crank Turner, a portal-fixing, half-a-body-missing planar mechanic from Automata who works on the Great Road, a path of portals that connects all the verses... damn near the whole song. Rex Sidewinder, a giant-befriending, shield-salvage-sledding smuggler hailing from the plane of Ysgard. Now living in the Gatetown of Glorium, this Goliath descended from Cloud Giants had been runnin’ from heroism his whole life. Birdie October, a bad-lad-nabbing, Xorn-kick-assing Bounty Hunter that keeps law and order ‘round the parts of Tradegate, the Gatetown of Bytopia. Birdie knows right from wrong and isn’t afraid to split hairs between what’s fair and what’s just. These three gunslingers don't know it yet, but Cosmic Concordance necessitates their presence. And it's just arrived in the form of an elegant woman with golden eyes - a Rilmani of the Spire. ... This has been a bite-sized, dice-rolled, twice-told story told by yours truly: Rob Whitehead and brought to life by my players: G as Crank Turner Maya as Rex Sidewinder Sav as Birdie October And Rob Whitehead as their Dungeon Master.
