Doyce Testerman

Mostly actual play from online tabletop games, played on Roll20. Also random other stuff.

Doyce Testerman
Highlight from last session.
Chrys, Gee, and Aitch stop in at a diner. Charlie catches up with them later.

2026 10 03 16 41 05 timebolted

Music on the diner Radio at the end of the session: https://youtu.be/YwozDusaQxs
Tim and I continue playing through The Quiet Year to build out the new sector of Cobalt Reach.

2026 09 29
Sean and Zoe join the game as teen supers-on-the-run, Gee and Aitch.

And, once again, the GM gets to drop a reveal he's been holding onto for over two years. It's pretty good.

2026 09 19
Welcome back to Victory Mesa.
2026 09 08 18 55 50 timebolted
Having gotten to Cobalt Reach (finally), Tim and I pull out The Quiet Year to build the new sector; all part of our brief to explore more indie games during our play.
