Tavern Watch Plays Pigeon’s 11, Episode 1: A fine flock of felonious fowl

This week we’re playing Pigeon’s 11, an adventure where our fine flock of felonious fowl are getting ready for the heist of a lifetime. (Spoiler: it involves a lot of baked goods and bread puns.) Join GM Liz Harper and a cast made up of Blizzard Watch’s bird alter egos:

• Phil Ulrich as Frankie Two-Talons, a boat-tailed grackle.
• Joan Albright as Professor Beakley, an African gray parrot.
• Eric O’Day as Thurston Owl III, a barn owl.
• Matt Rossi as Drom, an emu.
• Joe Perez as Bennie the Blast, a white-throated sparrow.
• Anne Stickney as Cecilia Cabana Banana Von ChiChi (Cece for short), a pigeon disguised as a peacock.

And yes, this adventure is just as wacky as it sounds. So join our crew of birds as they plan their big score, start a few fights, and chase down some baked goods.

This is the first in a three-part series of Pigeon’s 11 by 9th Level Games. It uses the Polymorph system for a game that’s straightforward, narrative focused, and rewards you for rolling a one. This is the second Polymorph game we’ve played — check out our game of Sentai & Sensibility if you want to see more of the system in action — and we’ve really enjoyed it!
