“...the author seeks to refute the emerging trend in the literature which characterizes the Verdancy as a moment of cataclysm, the destruction of the world; he should like to posit that the Verdancy instead represents a moment of grand transfiguration, the granting of the world a new Shape - one which this volume shall attempt to describe at length... ”
- an excerpt from “The Shape of the Wildsea: An Ontological Survey of the Post-Verdant World” by Claremont Montclair.
The crew of the Verdigale have begun their journey towards the distant freeport of Caldermere. Ahead lies the Shaking Boughs, a rough stretch of ocean where the ceaseless shifting of ironroot trees draws salvage and artifacts from the pre-verdant past to the surface.
Welcome to Risky Standard - Voyage of the Verdigale.
Voyage of the Verdigale is a weird-fantasy adventure story set atop the strange and vibrant ocean of treetops known as the Wildsea. It follows the journeys of a research vessel called the Verdigale and its crew as they sail the emerald waves on a mission of exploration and discovery. Along the way they’ll encounter the sentient plants, restless spirits, living storms, and relics of a distant past that populate the bizarre and ever-shifting world of the Wildsea.
Risky Standard is an actual play podcast featuring a rowdy group of best friends playing tabletop role-playing games together to tell compelling stories and craft unique worlds.
This season we’re playing The Wildsea by Felix Isaacs, a ‘post-fall fantasy tabletop roleplaying game set in a rampant ocean of verdant green’ published by Mythworks.
