Friends of the Pod takes the upcoming The Laundry RPG out for a spin with Jared Logan acting as handler for a team of field agents, including Abu Salim, Mary Lou, Josephine McAdam and Ross Bryant! The Laundry is a British government agency that defends the UK against supernatural threats, the occasional cosmic horror, and some really bad egg and cress sandwiches.

@@jamesthelimey1738 lol - but some of us still live in the Danelaw! We secretly kept it going to confuse the post-William the Conqueror crowd in London. And Sandi taught many of us better English vocabulary by hosting the sandwich quiz and opening the doors of No.73 to us on Saturday mornings in the '80s. Okay, that one's a stretch just to make a deep-cut kids TV reference!

Hearing Troy & Joe give a quick preview was one thing, but seeing this group navigate the horrors of bureaucratic abominations and middle-management angst was a lot of fun. I know Jared and the Blades regulars could make a compelling game based around reading an old phone book aloud, but the flavor and pure potential for this one is really unique. Bonus points for Mary Lou's chipperness and Ross's DJ turned government specialist. Thanks for another great one, GCN.

To my mind, "Field Support" provides equipment to agents in the field, and a "Curator of Acquisitions" may be deployed into the field to acquire something that ought not to be in the hands of civilians. The "Medic" cares for the trauma left by an encounter with a Basilisk Gun that was too close, and if you read the Laundry Files, you know that Bob Howard started out in the "IT Department."

@@BlueSapphyre Delta green is based in the lovecraft mythos, think more men in black and x-files with lovecraftian horrors. I havent interacted with SCP in over 10 years but as i remember it it was more of a supermax prison for anything from ghosts to gods. It was also a writing prompt for creative writing. I dont know if its under a creative commons now or what the deal is or if all contributors keep the rights to their individual creations. while my understanding of SCP today might be wrong i would see this more as the local agencies capturing stuff that might end up in SCP while having no connection to the SCP universe as such as the rights to use it is probably a nightmare and mythos is public domain. If you like SCP this is probably in your wheelhouse but i dont think it has anything to do with SCP but it is adjacent.
