Road to Icar

Four students are poisoned for petty reasons. Less than a century later an empire falls.

In a grand total of four hundred years, give or take, the terrain is unrecognizable. New nations, new people and new advances all play on a once-familiar board.

See how the dice are thrown, the signs and portents divined within the entrails of dead fascists, the symbols found in the smoke of remains wiped away by pyromancy.

Welcome to the Road to Icar.

EYES OF ICAR is our foray into a paid show all about what life is like centuries after the events of The Student Body and The Daughter of the Knife. Five citizens of the coastal country of Icar get together monthly to record their thoughts on the state of the world, the nation and events in their lives. Each has their own opinions, hangups and story. 25% improv, 25% talk show, 25% in-world political podcast, 25% media discussion, 100% the five of us riffing and playing weird characters.

Accessing the show is simple: you sign up through Patreon at any level, you get the show.

This is something we all want to make together. We also recognize it’s going to take more time, effort and planning than our normal show. As such, we feel it’s fair to put a price tag on it to ensure we’re compensated for our time.

We are also giving out previews of what you can expect. In order to bridge the gap between past and future, we played a series of games to see the twists and turns it would take to go from the Empire to Icar. These games will be free and remain free; they’re part of the fun we have together as players and want to share them with others. Once they’re done, the show begins.

We look forward to having you in the audience.
