[00:00:00] Speaker A: Hi, I'm bloodied porcelain. You may know me as the storyteller for Hunter Wayfair and psion apotheosis. What you're about to hear is what we call a hype train episode for our talk show after dawn.

[email protected]. Hallowedhaven Studios thanks. Now onto the Hype train episode for Hunter Wayfair season three.
[00:00:52] Speaker B: Good morning, hollowed Haven family. This is after dawn, the show where we sit down, have a cup of coffee with the cast, crew and creators behind Hollow Haven Studios productions. I'm Solomon, and with me is my intrepid co host, Grizz.
[00:01:09] Speaker C: Let's go.
I'm excited for this.
[00:01:12] Speaker B: I can tell, as we should be, because this is the hype train episode for Wayfarer season three, our flagship show for the reckoning.
[00:01:25] Speaker C: And a lot of things happened at the end of the last season. I mean, had some werewolf killing help a God escape to his actual world and shit, and, well, one of our characters now leads a cult.
[00:01:40] Speaker B: That's really the biggest revelation is the fact that people can. That he now leads a cult.
And people say that vampires are bad.
[00:01:51] Speaker C: Yeah, no, those vampires in that season totally should have been killed. Yeah, totally could have happened.
[00:01:57] Speaker B: Sounds like someone's jealous.
[00:01:59] Speaker C: Yes. Yes, I. Anyway, with us here today is the runner, the storyteller, and the absolutely wonderful bloody porcelain.
[00:02:10] Speaker A: Hello.
[00:02:11] Speaker C: Hello.
So, BP.
Chris, how excited are you?
[00:02:23] Speaker A: I'm excited and a little sad all at the same time.
[00:02:27] Speaker C: No, don't be sad. Why are you sad?
[00:02:29] Speaker A: Well, I've absolutely loved running Wayfair, but this is probably going to be our final season.
We're getting to the point where we are tying up loose ends and dealing with people's personal stories. And unfortunately, with the way that edition Hunter has been developed, there isn't a whole lot of.
There isn't a whole lot of upward mobility in the system. So if you don't cut your players back to, like, less than half of what they suggest you give them for experience every session, they're gonna kind of cap out and start stepping on each other's toes really quickly. So we decided that the story's kind of gotten to the point where we can wrap it up in one, maybe two more seasons if they take forever to finish things, but I don't think they will.
And, yeah, then it'll be time for me to think of other projects. So I'm excited. Super, super excited for the new season, but also kind of sad because this. It's a little bittersweet.
[00:03:37] Speaker C: Well, that makes sense.
[00:03:40] Speaker B: We've had some pretty significant changes to our cast and crew, to our play. Cast of players or not, our players are characters. Since last season, I've heard that we now have a major change in Rosanna. I heard that she was changing the.
[00:03:55] Speaker C: Type of hunter she is.
[00:03:57] Speaker A: Yeah. So given everything that has happened to Rosanna over the course of the last two seasons, it became very clear by the end of last season that Rosanna may have started out in inquisitive, but she has kind of expanded and developed. And as she has learned more about the world and learned more about her own personal family history and her intersection with the fae, with changelings, it has kind of changed the paradigm through which she sees the world. So rather than simply being an inquisitive who wants to know how everything works, Rosanna has decided that she wants to go hunter or hunter faithful hunter.
[00:04:45] Speaker B: Interesting. And is that faith in a particular religion, or is that faith connected to her changeling connections?
[00:04:56] Speaker A: That is something people will have to tune in to find out.
[00:04:59] Speaker C: Ooh.
I'm sure it has something to do with other, particularly faithful people.
Totally not. No, not any questions?
[00:05:12] Speaker A: I can neither confirm nor deny.
[00:05:17] Speaker C: The sound of pen scrambling on paper.
So I guess my question is going to be in the same vein. Have any of the other characters taken anything different, tried anything else new, or has everything been the same?
[00:05:37] Speaker A: So, I mean, they've all increased in what they can do.
So they're all going to come in with some slightly new things, but none of them have done a full shift other than Rosanna.
Rosanna swapped from one type of hunter to another, while the others have mostly just expanded on their currently existing skill sets.
Like, I believe.
I believe.
Sorry, Piper has gotten more, you know, is doing more with robotics and drones and things like that, which she was already doing. She's just gotten better at it. And Isabelle, I believe, has picked up some stuff that allows her to work with animals because they have Gozer traveling with some now.
[00:06:39] Speaker C: And obviously, Gozer is the strongest one.
[00:06:41] Speaker A: Of them of all you know, he has his moments.
[00:06:49] Speaker B: He survived fighting two werewolves and getting shot by dragon's breath.
[00:06:54] Speaker C: Say he's a pretty badass dog indeed. That's like less than a week too, right?
Only that dog could speak thoughts? Probably ask for a raise, right?
Purina spits it out. What is it?
[00:07:18] Speaker A: Now, I know that multiple of you are decent cooks. Why am I not getting a raw food diet like I'm supposed to?
[00:07:24] Speaker C: Where's my Le mignon?
Oh, that's currently in the gas tank because they drive on rv that's looking up all of our money.
[00:07:39] Speaker B: We have to keep repairing it because.
[00:07:40] Speaker C: Something keeps happening to it.
Yeah. Do they.
Are there upgrades to the rv? Is it, like, fully armored, ready to go, new paint job?
[00:07:52] Speaker A: I mean, they kind of already upgraded their rv. They traded in the really old one for a much newer, sleek, kind of like, bus style of rv last season. So there's not a whole lot else that they can do, really, except maybe adjust some of the onboard facilities for it. Like, I imagine Isabelle's lab, Medbay, is probably a little bit better, but beyond that, I don't think that there's a whole lot more that they could add in realistically.
[00:08:30] Speaker B: Now Medbay can hold two bodies for.
[00:08:32] Speaker C: Them and jump into the swamp, you know, ideas. So obviously, we can't ask for too many details because this is a hype train and we want you to be excited. But are there any character story points that we actually do know about that you were looking forward to addressing?
[00:09:00] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. I can tell you that we are going to be dealing with Rosanna's and Piper's personal story ties that played into last season a lot. Those are going to come full circle this season.
And Isabelle's will probably, by default, come along at about the same time. They all sort of, without really talking to each other, created characters that are all sort of linked into the same groups, if not the same issues. Does that make sense?
That without really discussing it or whatever, they all sort of created character backgrounds that had disparate ties to certain powerful and shady and potentially destructive agencies out there in the world.
[00:09:56] Speaker C: So that's 50 hollow dollars. Anyone can figure out what she's talking about.
[00:10:01] Speaker A: Better.
[00:10:02] Speaker C: Rewatch everything.
80 organizations, agencies.
I'm so sorry.
Yeah, well, you know, you're right. You're right. Forgive me. Bows. Um, so.
And there's.
And there. Yeah, so. And also, um, there's no way to. Yeah, he didn't leave them. I don't think it's a way for them to do that. But there's no way to contact Loki, which would have been really cool idea, but I don't think that's gonna happen.
[00:10:48] Speaker A: No, he's gone. He's not in their world anymore.
His girlfriend is still around somewhere, but is not, you know, he's not here anymore.
[00:11:05] Speaker C: I guess the question is, who's going to steal Loki's girlfriend?
[00:11:09] Speaker A: Well, they'll have to get through the dragon.
[00:11:13] Speaker B: Yeah, the dragon is a bit of a. Bit of a wall to prevent such things.
[00:11:19] Speaker A: They just have to get him to approve. Sure, that'll be easy. It'll be fine.
[00:11:23] Speaker C: They'll be fine.
You really want this to happen now? Actually, listen, I just want to talk to your mom now.
[00:11:45] Speaker A: Note to self, have saw come on as the dragon.
[00:11:50] Speaker B: Speaking of people coming on for parts, are there any SPCs that you might want to hint at coming along and possibly showing up?
[00:12:02] Speaker A: Well, she killed most of them.
A lot of the SPCs are either dead or purposefully in the background. There is a chance we might see Peter again.
I have a new SPC that I have cast.
I don't know that he'll ever actually play into things, but I cast him just in case.
He is going to be played by bookkeeper, who we have gotten to see in other. We got to see in another game, the good society. We got to see how good he is at getting into character and going off on these really, really well. It feels like they're all pre written, but a good chunk of it wasn't.
These really well done monologues and rants. So I was just like, you have the perfect skill set for the character that I'm thinking.
Please come play this for me if I need him.
So that's on the list.
[00:13:14] Speaker C: You can find a great example of that in holiday. That's on YouTube.com. Yes. Yeah.
[00:13:20] Speaker A: Or on our website, hallowedhaven studios.com.
Betrothed and betrayed.
[00:13:29] Speaker B: Fantastic. Any inclination as to if the Linnea society may rear its ugly head again? Or are they basically off the board now that they're not associated with Loki?
[00:13:43] Speaker A: They might. That is very.
That is very up in the air because their tie in was very specific.
And the character that they. That they were originally tied to, Victoria, is dead now. So whether or not they're going to play in is kind of up in the air. We'll see what the players do.
[00:14:08] Speaker C: Fun.
[00:14:09] Speaker B: Fun.
[00:14:11] Speaker C: I guess the only other thing we can truly ask because can't tell us much more than men.
Would you be so kind as to give us the slightest bit of, like, a little bit of an Easter egg. A little bit of information to keep us excited for this so tiny little bitty bit.
A little bit of something.
[00:14:36] Speaker A: What I will tell you is that Isabel, Piper, and Rosanna all have backstory ties to the same agency from very different perspectives and approaches.
There may very well come down. There may very well be a moment where the question of whether or not the cell even stays together through the thick and thin of the season will present itself.
There are going to be some very big moral quandaries that some of them are going to have to answer.
There's going to be moments where characters have to address where their loyalties lie and whether or not they want to keep hunting.
[00:15:37] Speaker C: When all is said and done, man, I said a little bit of something something. But that was a lot.
[00:15:44] Speaker A: And yet still so vague.
[00:15:47] Speaker C: Yeah.
All right. $100 million to whoever can figure out what the hell she was just talking about.
[00:15:55] Speaker A: We don't have $100 million. Please don't come for us.
[00:16:00] Speaker B: There's nothing legally binding about what Grizz has said.
[00:16:05] Speaker C: Yeah, we're freaking trick on it. Like the hell.
Go ahead and do it.
Any other questions, my good friend?
[00:16:15] Speaker B: I can't think of anything. I think that's pretty much about it. Unless our lovely guest has something else that they want to bring up for our wonderful listeners.
[00:16:30] Speaker A: I don't think so. I think you guys asked all of the questions I can think of to answer. Oh, oh.
And just as a reminder, because we were talking about things to keep people excited about, as a reminder, piper did not make it.
Isabel was not the only one last season that walked away with a curse.
Hers was the most obvious. But she was not the only one to end the season with the curse last season. So that'll also have to be addressed.
[00:17:06] Speaker C: Ooh, editor, put in a dun, dun, dun. But, like, make it all evil and stuff.
Thanks, Durhamite.
Appreciate you, but I think that's it.
This could be my done done. But, like, overlaid with, like, a couple of bases. Anyway, then all we gotta do is ask everyone to get excited. Be excited. It's happening. It's here. We're gonna have wayfarer season three, and it's gonna be awesome.
[00:17:31] Speaker A: April 5, which is a Friday at 08:00 p.m.. Eastern. Make sure that you're here for it, potentially the last ten episodes of our very first flagship show.
[00:17:43] Speaker C: Make sure you're hydrated. Make sure you have snacks. Be there. Make it happen.
All right, be ready. Be wacky. Bye.
