These are my notes on role-playing in the Firefly/Serenity universe. It is not specifically about the Serenity Roleplaying Game by Jamie Chambers from Sovereign Press -- which I own, but have not used. I was not attracted by the Sovereign Press rules, and so I instead ran a Firefly/Serenity adventure using the Spirit of the Century system, by Rob Donaghue, Fred Hicks, and Leonard Balsera.

The Coronado and Her Crew

A set of pre-generated characters for a one-shot I ran. It is a ship owned by the Companions Guild, sent to deal with potential trouble on the Outer Worlds.

Actual Play Report on LJ

My report on running the first adventure. (Warning: Spoilers!)

"Stagecoach" LARP

A parlor LARP scenario with up to 10 characters about the Coronado on a trip during a Reaver crisis shortly following the Serenity film.
