Sinopsis
Welcome to Very Random Encounters, a show where we play pen and paper RPGs in which we've randomly determined as many things as is possible, including characters, villains, names, places, and other weirder stuff! It all comes together to be a very random encounter.We're an actual play roleplaying game podcast by four friends who love the challenge of telling a story whose details are all prompted by random rolls. You can start with the first episode in any given season. So far, we've played Dungeons and Dragons, Monster of the Week, the 1980's Marvel Superhero Game by TSR, In Plain Sight, and Call of Cthulhu. Pick whichever sounds fun and start there!
