"Avowed One-Shot" (Sx92) is a special one-shot sponsored and inspired by Obsidian Entertainment's new game release, Avowed. Gamemaster Matthew Mercer leads Anjali Bhimani, SungWon Cho, Whitney Moore, Marisha Ray, and Travis Willingham on an adventure through the fictional world of Eora that was first introduced to players in the Pillars of Eternity franchise.

Synopsis[]

Pre-show[]

  • Matt welcomes everyone to this special episode in collaboration with Xbox and Obsidian Entertainment inspired by their new game "Avowed", out now.
  • The players introduce themselves.

Introduction[]

Welcome to Eora, a vast and mysterious world of magic, politics, and discovery where empires weave and rove over their interests in the many gods who have presided in ages past over the Wheel, the cycle of rebirth the soul undertakes with each passing. The soul itself is a studied thing, a being's own essence, and its mechanics themselves are studied across many lands within the field of animancy. Texts and great machines recovered from the ancient civilization known as the Engwithans pertained to and manipulated souls in ways that are still not fully understood. But such matters carry little interest where our story begins, as a sizable prison ship recently set sail from the Aedyran capital city of Highcrown, heading northward.

This ship, the Dancing Umbrage, carries a cargo of numerous convicts of varying degrees of notoriety, shackled, then prepped into the ship for arrival to the Living Lands, the northern frontier island where numerous settlements and foreign colonies now seek to expand and claim dominion over the region's diverse geography and bountiful resources. Rumors swirl of unnaturally abundant landscapes and uncovered relics belonging to prehistoric culture, and the pursuit of such interests requires labor. No labor is cheaper than prisoners without choice, prisoners that now wait within the belly of the Dancing Umbrage, pushing onward across a choppy sea as a storm brews beyond.
