or Dungeon World: Screams in the Darkness Session 1
Intro
Six days in this stinking hole with the rest of these filthy, uncultured adventurers. Climbing down, down, down for six days! And then being lost! How anyone could lose the map is beyond me. Should have killed... never, mind. Doesn't matter, because here we are, in the final resting place of the Blood Emperor, Choteok IV. For someone legends say massacred a million peasants to feed his god, he doesn't look so frightening now. And more importantly his preserved body is still wearing the crown, ring, amulet and orb. The whole thing is making me nervous. I don't think we're alone in here.

Kind of like Apocalypse World, you
start out a Dungeon World game by creating the characters and their
world. I created a Wizard named Titus who kind of looks like Owen Wilson
in Zoolander and whose mannerisms and form of speech mirror those of
the Laughing Magician.*
The details of the world are still vague. I hinted that Titus comes from a place called Old City, which is the first city ever built in Dungeon World. Also, some nasty rumors about the Blood Emperor were spread around the table. (It is said that the sick bastard used to bathe in human blood!)
Here's a list of the characters:

Here's a list of the characters:
- Titus the Wizard
- Regulus the Templar
- Nathan the Bard
- Dryson the Ranger
- Brellin the Artificer
- April the Druid
- Marblang the Shaman
- Hawthorn the Cleric. (Who's played by +Paul McBride **, btw)
Like Apocalypse World, Dungeon World is all about relationships. Here's a
diagram of Titus' relationships at the beginning of the game:
Quick Session Recap
Duke Montard, the Lord of the Black Mesa, commissioned the group to loot the Blood Emperor's tomb. Screams in the Darkness
started out in media res with characters in mid-dungeon-crawl. As we
worked our way into the dungeon complex we had to deal with goblins and
tentacled horrors hiding in bone piles and slow witted giants made out
of phlegm.
By the end of the session, two of the adventures had crossed into an alternate dimension, my character was stuck in a pit surrounded by panicked goblins, and the rest of the party were wondering what the fuck was going on.

Needless to say that I can't wait for the next Dungeon World game!
