Nature Check is a show where scientists play TTRPGs. Through our games, we hope to show you that scientists are real people with bawdy senses of humor and creative solutions to problems. We also hope to use our game worlds to talk about real issues in biology, ecology, environmental science, scientific research, and society.

Welcome to Burn, a post-apocalyptic game of danger, intrigue, and exploration! The group spends the first half of this session working through a Turn of the Ages, a fun mechanic of Legacy that allows us to shift the clock forward in time. Some of the Families fared better than others, and all tell interesting and dramatic stories about how the world changed in the 5 years after the Sun returned. In the second half, the PCs discuss a mutual problem: Insane Jane and her Raiders. The group settles on a complicated honeypot/reverse raid scheme and sets up all the moving parts. Next time, they'll get to put their plan in action.
