We held our second StoryCards session last night with some good success. I think the players had fun, but due to various complications, my timing was a little off for the adventure. I had to hurry the last scene just a little bit. Nevertheless, I think we had an enjoyable time.

Like yesterday, we drew the Angels and Demons card from the deck, but today we coupled it with Martial Arts. (I am taking the A&D card out of the deck tonight!!!) After some discussion, it was suggested that the players could be a special task force who hunts down demons. Cool, huh?

The players were tasked with stopping a demon-infiltrated Yakuza, who has an anonymous tipster on the inside called Katana. He sent information to the players about a shipment of arms at the docks, and of course the players had to stop it! The tip also noted that one of the Yakuza lieutenants would be there for the deed, a demon by the name of Aigu the Blade. (Yes, I reused the name of Aigu from yesterday, since it sounded roughly oriental.)

The shipment was stopped, but it was a different Lieutenant making the drop, a demon (who also happened to be a blogger) by the name of the Crane, a birdlike demon who threw shuriken. It was disovered that Aigu the Blade was the insider Katana, who wanted out of the organization and protection in exchange for information of how to get the crime boss, which the players succeeded in getting.

Early this morning (on Saturday) I have the Scooby-Doo adventure, and tonight I have one final generic StoryCards game. So far, though, the response from players has been really positive! We're psyched!
