Shadowrun Origins: The Hidden Grid Prequels

Hey folks, something a bit different today. Before Shadowrun: Origins began, there was a collaboration between the Neo-Anarchist Podcast and the Hidden Grid Podcast. We did classic runs from Shadowrun’s first edition. Sound familiar? It should. In fact, these runs are a direct lead-in to Shadowrun Origins and even feature characters from Orgins, like Guard-A-Manager. These runs are ones we haven’t/didn’t/won’t cover in Origins, so if you want to know how Guard-A-Manager and his team handled the first edition adventures Origins won’t be covering, here is your chance. And did I mention, Opti is the GM? Enjoy these, crows!

After this, things got pretty complicated for some of the cast, so we had to wrap up production. These next bits are raw, really raw, but if you want to listen to them in all of their odd-glory, here are the rest of of the Mercurial episodes…

There is ONE MORE episode after this that I would love to get made, which is when Opti meets the gang, so I’ll try to release that as a special. There is also a non-recorded version of us playing Queen Euphoria, but it never finished. Maybe I can get the old crew together for it…

Well, until then…

Take care, crows!



Shadowrun Origins: Episode 33: Honesty is the Best Policy 1

The next few episodes are off-beat, but I think you’ll love em.

Having just finished a run involving magical murder bugs, the team is now going to try, and fail, to relax before being called up for a run that is outside of their normal parameters. Literally.

Shadowrun Origins: Episode 32: Missing Blood 8

Holy smokes! This is the finale of Missing Blood! Bugs, bugs, everywhere, and us without our pesticides. Hang in for one more episode to see how it all wraps up! Things may never be the same… I’ll be honest with you, things will probably be very similar to same, but you never know…

Shadowrun Origins: Episode 31: Missing Blood 7

This is where things absolutely get bonkers. Yep, you heard that right. Things get cranked up an additional notch from the creeping horror that we’ve faced so far. As we open, Opti has been scanning the info dump and has found some earth-shattering conclusions. Enjoy this, chummers, if enjoy is the right word.

Shadowrun Origins: Episode 30: Missing Blood 6

Continuing the missing blood adventure, the team has found strange things. Is the Universal Brotherhood not what they seem? A child-thing is dead in a crib? And as we open, Guard-A-Manger begins reading from a journal found at the grisly scene. You do not want to miss this.

Shadowrun Origins: Episode 29: Missing Blood 5

Detective Bambra has been found and we kinda rescued him, kinda. Now it is time for introductions and to see what information we can get about Victoria and her missing blood necklace! A word of strong warning, everyone. This episode contains very graphic depictions of violence, demonic things, and creepy gross stuff. Those with sensitivity to certain creatures or who find violence to children disturbing, may wish to skip this episode. I want to offer explanations for all of those warnings, but that would spoil some things, so let me just say, if you are sensitive, please skip this episode, or skip the last half of it. The graphic depictions of violence are not related to the children and any implied violence happens off screen. With all those caveats, enjoy the ride.

Shadowrun Origins: Episode 28: Missing Blood 4

When we left the gang last time, while tracking down a mark and her missing jewelry, they had managed to not die in a confrontation while tracking down Detective Bambra. But I am sure more snooping and many more revelations are in the pipeline for today. So let’s get to it!
