Dresden Files RPG Session 5 Finale

Posted in Dresden Files RPG, Play Sessions, RPG Only on October 22nd, 2010 by Kevin Weiser

Things come to a head in the exciting conclusion to our run through the Dresden Files RPG. A small note on the sound quality: about 45 minutes in the AC kicks on, which was accompanied by a very annoying rattle. I used noise reduction to eliminate most of it, but as a result the remainder of the episode sounds just a tad tinny. Sorry if this is bothersome, but trust me, it was better than the rattle!
