Hello we are doing an open casting call for a new Actual Play podcast Guns, Gas, and Gods: Gloomtrain using the Umerica Survival Guide for Dungeon Crawl Classics system by Shield of Faith Studios. This is a Gonzo Post Apocalyptic with both Alien Tech and Horrific Magics. The story involves guarding the transport of Gloom W**d, a plant that can be refined into a miracle medicine or a potent intoxicating drug from the Land of NecroTech, to the Grand Citadel of Scrap for the Astroliches of Seattle via the Gloomtrain. A session 0 will occur before recording but a few things that are set in stone that may not be cool with some players: The story will involve drugs and drug use, body horror, what happens to your body after you are dead, capitalism and its bu****it especially where it concerns with doing things you probably don’t want to do for survival, and some characters with supremacist ideals as villains.
We have 3 spots available for cast members and Black, Indigenous, People of Color, Q***r, Trans are encouraged to apply. Sessions will happen the first and third sunday of each month for Oct, Nov, Dec, and Jan, with session zero occurring September 21st exact times tbd. Cast members must attend session zero and at least 6 out of the 8 sessions to be considered.
