RPG Major: Actual Play Mystery RPG & Improvised Musical Theater
. RPG Major: Stories of kindness and bravery in a world full of darkness, mystery, and magic, told one song at a time. Welcome to Foxglove, a modern city where cryptids lurk in coffee shops and supernatural cases land on the desk of two unlikely private investigators: Mara, a charismatic Siren, and Aubrey, a Former Fairy Queen. This isn’t your typical actual play: every investigation unfolds as an improvised musical, with brand new songs inspired by the story in each episode. Like the best songs of Broadway - some are goofy, and some might just bring you to tears. Perfect for fans of actual play podcasts and musical theater alike, RPG Major delivers high-quality audio, deeply emotional storytelling, and characters who grow with every case they solve. The game is played in Genesys, but fans of systems like Dungeons & Dragons (D&D), Pathfinder, Monster of the Week, and other systems will find a lot to love. Expect liberal laughs, painful puns, songs that slap, and mysteries that keep you guessing until the final note. New episodes weekly. Gamers and musical theater lovers welcome.
