Here at HLG, we support small, independent content creators trying to get ahead. And one of the best is PAN, the Pagan Angel Network, a fantastic horror/rpg/being awesome podcast that, if you are a fan of those kinds of genres or games, you should become a fan of them! They are starting a Patreon, and we would love it if you would be able to give them a bit of love!

Don't just take my word for it, listen to the host and founder, Zachary:

Hi, I'm Zach, a writer, veteran/survivor of the Hollywood entertainment industry, dogsitter, filthy K-pop stan, and English tutor. I love the horror genre, especially cosmic horror, and I love tabletop RPGs.
 
Since I started my podcast PAN, the Pagan Angel Network, in 2017, it has essentially been an unpaid part-time job for me. I have released 141 episodes across 10 different series, involving talent from all across the country. PAN's episodes have been downloaded a thousand times over the previous month alone.

And now, we have launched a Patreon: patreon.com/paganangelnetwork

If you are able, please consider pledging your support for a month or longer! Patreon is the best way for artists and creators to get sustainable income and connect with their fans. In these uncertain times, we really need what creators and artists give to the world.

Supporting a creator on Patreon is quick and easy:
- You can become a supporter of PAN for as little as $3 a month.
- Supporters at even the lowest payment tier receive full perks and benefits.
- Right now, supporters can access deleted scenes and behind-the scenes development material from the Stygian Viziers and listen to the first episode of our next series a week early.

Thank you for considering this way to support me and the tabletop gaming hobby.

This is part two of an actual play from the table that VP Quinn and Assistant to the Assistant to the Regional Manager Joel play at. The game is run by Andrew, and the players are Quinn playing a murderous goblin, Joel playing an elven plant magician, Ryan playing a human bureaucrat and Anthony playing a human diplomat and the ships captain. 

This episode is a direct continuation of Part 1, so if you missed that we would recommend that you listen to it first to catch up to where the story is now. Below is a brief introduction to our campaign as written by our Game Master Andrew.

After the Homeworld was ruined by magical warfare, dwarves, elves, goblins, humans and trolls have left it to seek their fortune among the stars.  We play a small crew of misfits just trying to keep their ship running and their mouths fed in the vast Aether Sea.  Our crew inhabits a rich, high-fantasy universe of magic-powered sailing ships, steampunk gadgets, interstellar travel, intrigue, and good old piracy.  Aether Sea - A World of Adventure for Fate Core was written by Ed Turner.
