Hi there!

I was told by the folks at the Recorder on the Wall podcast that I should post this here. I didn't even know it existed, and I'm glad I do now because it's a gold mine.

I GM an actual play called "If You Give A Mouse A Dagger." We use the FATE Core system and it's set in the Redwall universe! Here's a brief description:

"The fabled place of healing, Redwall Abbey, has become nothing but a legend lost to time. A strange disease known as "The Affliction" has started to harm the creatures of the Mossflower Woods. The people's only hope? An elderly squirrel seeking equality, a badger seeking fame and glory, and an orphan hamster seeking a meal.

Join players Tessa Lafleur, Hannah LaFleur, Eric Jaimes, and their GM Aubrey Massey as they play FATE Core in the setting of the Brian Jacques novel series, Redwall."

I would love it if you all gave a listen as Redwall fans. It doesn't stick 100% within the fiction, but I keep it as close as I can while creating our own story. We currently have six episodes out:


  • Introduction - The description of the setting set to dramatic music.
  • The Basics of FATE Core - A tutorial of how the FATE Core system works for those who are unfamiliar.
  • Clementine - The story of the elderly brown squirrel, Clementine. You'll wish she was your own grandmother.
  • Diggs the Bold - The story of how Diggs the Bold, Badger Knight of the Order of the Crescent earns his title, "Vanquisher of the Great Wolf."
  • Portobello - A typical day in the life of Portobello, adorable orphan street hamster.
  • Ep. 01 - Down with the Sickness, Part 1 - The first time all our characters come together to find a cure for the Affliction.

I'll definitely be checking this out! I haven't had the pleasure of using the FATE Core system, but at least I can vicariously live it through a Redwall setting. :)

This sounds awesome!  I've actually been wanting to play a Redwall Themed tabletop game, but haven't been able to find any posted homebrew systems.  I bet listening to this'll give me some ideas though, I'm looking forward to checking this out.

EDIT

So it looks like it hasn't been updated since May, but my idea still stand at least, hahahaha
