This is the last episode of Season 3 of Crossing Darkness.  For the last episode we talk about Demon the Fallen, one of the last game lines to come out for the World of Darkness Setting.   Check out our new website: https://theageofstories.com/

Demon the Fallen

Welcome to Movies of Darkness, today we will be watching Hackers and trying to interpret the events in the story from the perspective of the World of Darkness role playing games. We have designed this to be a commentary you can listen to while watching Hackers and have added a prompt so you know when to hit the play button. The main thing we will be doing is trying to explain how the events on screen would be interpreted according to a session of a world of darkness game. For example, we might say that a certain event would require a roll of some sort. Or, if we encounter a character, we’ll be speculating on what supernatural they might be and what powers they might have. Also, while we watch, we’ll be filling out a character sheet for Zero Cool.

Crossing Darkness crosses the streams of the old World of Darkness and brings other games into the mix.
