Grahame fell deep into an Actual Play Podcast hole, where he found that he really wanted to start one of his own. He can usually be found hanging out in the CastJunkie Discord server. In his less-free time, he\'s a technical editor. Podcasting has not helped with this. He lives in Boston with his partner and co-host on The Role Less Taken, as well as their two cats, Peanut and Edmund "Fitz" Fitzgerald.

TRANSCRIPT

This is the log of Captain Weston Bywater of the Scout Ship Emissary, on an exploration mission to chart new worlds and document new phenomena. Alone among the stars, I am the first human to set eyes on any of these worlds.

Planet: Nu Vespae III
[Dice rolls]
One Anomaly

While scanning the planet\\u2019s north pole, I notice a massive metal obelisk jutting at an odd angle from the ice cap. Constructed. The size of a large starship, but internal scans show that it was packed with fuel and, ah, explosives. An unexploded missile from a long-forgotten war.
