Scene 10 Scene 11 Scene 12 GM Notes The Stepdaughters of Chiron is an adaptation of the video game faction, Gaia’s Stepdaughters. It remains to be seen if they are as peaceful as their video-game equivalent (which itself takes inspiration from real-world organizations like Greenpeace), or if they truly are “ecoterrorists”. Why change the name? “Gaia” is sometimes a name for Earth, but this campaign takes place on the planet Chiron. The stepdaughters are trying to adapt to their new home, not remake their old one.2023-10-0844 minDicey StoriesDicey StoriesThe Inquest Part 1 of 3Tric and Heppa take a stab at defending Kachen before High Lord Volas and the council.

Guillaume also gives us a ton of information on the coming second version of Inquisition which he is currently developing. As usual, this meanders a good bit but includes a lot of great discussion about writing a product in English as a second language, tools that could be helpful for anyone producing written content for really anything at all, and a lot more.

Without the guidance of their masters, it is sure to be a treacherous investigation. They must deal with some rude fowl before checking in on their friend's last known location. From there, a trail of clues leads them to an encounter that just might be a bit too much for our diminutive animal protagonists to overcome on their own....
