You and your fledgling crew must thrive amidst the threats of rival gangs, powerful noble families, vengeful ghosts, the Bluecoats of the city watch, and the siren song of your scoundrel’s own vices. Will you rise to power in the criminal underworld? What are you willing to do to get to the top?

Blades in the Dark is a tabletop role-playing game by John Harper about a crew of daring scoundrels seeking their fortunes on the haunted streets of an industrial-fantasy city. There are heists, chases, occult mysteries, dangerous bargains, bloody skirmishes, and, above all, riches to be had—if you’re bold enough to seize them.

I am looking for scoundrels, rogues, hard scrabble con-men and morally questionable characters with deep set vices.

Touchstones are Ocean's 11, Peaky Blinders, Dishonoured, Bloodeborne, the Theif: The Dak Project video game, The Lies of Locke Lamora, and The Vlad Taltos series

This is a drop in/drop out series. Come the weeks that you can. I'll provide some pre-created characters or blank sheets if you would like to make your own. I have run a few one shots for varied groups in this system and am looking forward to having a longer running story and a crew.

Please keep your RSVP up to date. I'll run with as few as three players. If you're on the Wait List and make other plans, be sure to change your RSVP in case there's a late cancellation. Be aware that Meetup sometimes has a delay on their notifications, so BE SURE to check your Wait List status on the app or website.

My tables are positive, friendly, and welcoming spaces for all scoundrels, regardless of class, race, gender, or sexual identity. Any negativity fueled by real-world ignorance, hate, or fear will be met with swift action and possible permanent teleportation to the plane of eternal banishment.

Any other questions? Just ask! Either here in the comments or find me on the discord as Pirate Yoda.
