Setting the Stage, Campaigns for D&D and Other RPGs61 - Helix and RPG MajorToday's guest is Helix, the GM of the actual play podcast, RPG Major. RPG Major is a detective show in a fantasy version of modern Seattle. The show is half RPG/half musical improv, setting it apart from many other actual plays.

There's a little chord the guitarist plays whenever the dice are rolled or a bad thing happens. Great, easy listening.The world...
