A coffee table with a GM screen taking part of the space, with 4 large bags of weird crisps, several mugs and various sets of dice filling the rest of the space (more crisps off screen)
Had our first in-person #rpg session since the Before Times this afternoon. It was mostly an excuse to eat a prodigious amount of crisps, although we did talk to an old man too (and we didn't even kill him!). #NightsBlackAgents
BLOG RERUN: This was the last time I played #NightsBlackAgents with the crew. It was wild.

El año continúa bien por ahora, retomando la campaña #SoloOps del juego de rol #AgentesDeLaNoche #NightsBlackAgents. Diez sobre diez 🧐
This is like The Dracula Dossier fir #NightsBlackAgents ... but with Pennywise instead of the count.
This is fair. But I wonder do Vampires know this? They strike me as narcissistic monsters. Being denied a reflection might feel like the full realisation of God's curse. Might they go to extraordinary lengths to see their reflection again? Obsidian heist time! #NightsBlackAgents
Ooh ... would a vampire have a relection in an obsidian mirror (no silver layer)? #NightsBlackAgents
Looks like a #NightsBlackAgents caper #ttrpg
Cosmo the fluffy tuxedo cat sitting next to a monitor (with a blue background and rainbow abstract design), yawning, his mouth wide. On the shelf behind are half a dozen table top role playing games, mostly from Steve Jackson Games (the Fantasy Trip), and Pelgrane Press. Fine games from fine publishers.

Cosmo Trouble says he's going to knock all these games down if I don't start playing them

Hoy Leyla Khan ha vuelto a hacer de las suyas en Budapest.
Me sentiría un poco más como Bourne si sacara menos tiradas de 1, pero nadie me puede quitar que soy una superagente, y mola 😎

Night's Black Agents hook: Nosferatu: a secretive Grenoble startup selling 'anti-vampire' home security to the ultra-rich. Your agents must expose its real backers and motives. Unearth the full briefing on our blog. #NightsBlackAgents #TTRPG

🐺 Werewolves fit right into Night’s Black Agents. Whether supernatural, damned, alien, or mutant, they bring shapeshifting, regeneration, and savage powers to your spy thriller. Fangs out, guns ready. #TTRPG #NightsBlackAgents #GUMSHOE

Night’s Black Agents, Rifts, and MechWarrior core books stacked on my Harlem Unbound and Haunted West mouse pad, with a three-finger pour of rye keeping them company. Plotting madness, conspiracies, and mechs—fueled by good whiskey and ambition.
The mini-campaign setting search is down to a three-way tie! 🎲 The finalists? #NightsBlackAgents, #Rifts, & #MechWarrior. I've got just over a month before Session 0, it’s time to roll up my sleeves and get to plotting. Conspiracies, mechs, or dimensional terrors —what’s it gonna be? #GMLife #TTRPGs
I’ve never played or run Night’s Black Agents but I have read through the book.
I think the Conspyramid is one of the simplest yet most ingenious tools for structuring a campaign I’ve ever seen!

Jetzt will ich es wissen: Never day Dead. Wird Leyla Kahn entkommen, wird sie sich erinnern? #NightsBlackAgents Solo Ops ist ein One to One Gumshoe Spin-off. Hier mein schnell gebastelter Splash-Screen für das Vampir-Agenten-Spektakel in Ungarn. #Gumshoe #PelgranePress
@pelgranepress.bsky.social ‘s #NightsBlackAgents has the, imo, glorious ‘Technothriller monologue’ option, wherein PCs have the chance at a skill points refresh if they can deliver a suitably fetishistic / nihilistic / gun-fondling paean to their favourite instrument of destruction.
In Night’s Black Agents, the Zalozhniy Quartet explores alchemical themes like nigredo, albedo, and rubedo—symbols tied to vampiric power and immortality. These elements add depth to the conspiracy, blending espionage with occult intrigue. #TTRPG #NightsBlackAgents #GUMSHOE

I listen to another #CompanionChronicle, set after #DoctorWho’s #CityofSpires but before #TheWreckoftheTitan - #NightsBlackAgents
One of my gaming groups introduced me to Night's Black Agents tonight. I missed Sessions 0/.5, but they managed to bring me up to speed fairly quickly and I had a blast, definitely playing again. #TTRPGs #NightsBlackAgents
A four-panel cartoon in the style of Spongebob Squarepants with two characters featuring the dialogue: "Welcome to the Salty Spitoon, how tough are you?" "I play a caster." "So?" "In Call of Cthulhu." "Right this way."
That's a solid regular-game list. I've yet to play Dragonbane or Monster of the Week, but I hope to fix that in '25. Started with Mentzer D&D and AD&D back in the long, long ago, but as of late it's mostly #CallOfCthulhu, #DeltaGreen and #Gumshoe (which means #NightsBlackAgents currently).
A sweet #ttrpg deal from @humblebundle.com #nightsblackagents www.humblebundle.com/books/spies-... #ttrpgs4everyone #blerd
This book is burning a hole in my free time, which I have so little of.
Think Mission Impossible, but with vampires.

I wanted to give a shout out to the Ephemeris blog. Every week there’s solid content and great ideas for anyone interested in #gumshoe or #Bookhounds or #Nightsblackagents! Check them out at karloff-shelf.blogspot.com?m=1
Stu Horvath at Vintage RPG calls The Dracula Dossier: Director’s Handbook one of the most ambitious campaigns ever! Players chase Dracula’s secrets using an annotated novel, while GMs weave an adaptable conspiracy. #DraculaDossier #NightsBlackAgents #TTRPG

Early night after a tough day. Rewatching Coppola's Dracula for inspiration for #nightsblackagents. Superb!

Accessory I appreciate?
Gonna be greedy. I ❤️ great handouts. Ace for verisimilitude. So I’ll name-check 3:
A hand-made dossier for @malcolmcraig.bsky.social ‘s #ColdCity
Another for #nightsblackagents #draculadossier
And the #CallofCthulhu #masksofnyarlathotep prop set
👍
#RPGaDay
Great writing. Again, lots of options - answer could change day-today.
Gonna opt for a #NightsBlackAgents combo from @kennethhite.bsky.social and @mytholder.bsky.social
Core book brimming with love & enthusiasm for the genre(s) - spies AND vampires -and a brilliant, modular, campaign
