Some of you might recognize Absurdia from Monster Hour's second season. You might also recognize our guest from the same place. He made both of them! And now he's here with us, making a cat who's been through it, and gained the power of speech because he absolutely HAD to tell EVERYONE what he knows.

We at the Literal Cat Podcast get so few opportunities to be #topical, that when we saw we had an RPG sitting on Joel's shelf that belonged to a franchise that was ALSO Getting a new video game release in the near future, we jumped RIGHT on that. Hello, Dragon Age fans! We're one of you! At least Joel is. We're working on Avalon. Anyway this is Dragon Age by Green Ronin, and we put a cat mage in it!

Fate of Cthulhu is a Fate-based RPG by Evil Hat Productions about going back in time to stop the rise of an Eldritch horror, Terminator-style. Before the REAL heroes got sent back though, they first ran an experiment to project a cat's consciousness back in time to see if their technology worked. And so there's also just a cat from the future here, now. It's not even, like, a normal cat. they did something to it.

Enjoy the second half of our poorly-concieved PBTA mashup game, Herding Cats! Joel is your Game Master for the evening. Avalon is playing Ryka Pirjic, a bounty hunter we hope gets cast in Star Wars canon played by Ron Pearlman. James is Kat, the cat that can seal away magic powers. Greg is Wonck, the cat that Joel previously played on his show! He's a line bull, badge name Nevis. And finally, Misha is here as Lady Diabolique Eclipse the 5th, a witch with a cool but deeply unsettling pet hat!

None of these cats are from the same game, have compatible playbooks, or really any moves that work in synergy. At least the episode is entertaining!
