What's going on in your game?

Talk about your party members, give a summary of what your game's story is about and what's the latest thing that has happened.

Party is on a government-funded space adventure following a cyclic positioning beacon artifact somebody found. Basically taking them from one place to another with no apparent rhyme or reason.

Their latest encounter is trying to help out the 'natives' of an artificial world they stumbled across. Their ancestors uploaded themselves and became linked to various extremely tiny synthetic bodies, in order to escape the notice of the station's somewhat overzealous security.

In the process of trying to help them out, the party finds it necessary to disable the local security node. So to sneak in there, they've jerry-rigged some stasis pods to teleoperate the same nanite constructs as the natives and get the job done.

"I've heard of all sorts of bullshit people do with nanomachines in fiction, but never thought I'd be a faerie made of them." Was the quote of the evening for the start of this mess.

There's a necromancer with ambiguous morals and a shady past involving espionage and multiple secret projects and proxy wars. A simple potato farmer who is a veteran sniper being whispered to by a mysterious magical entity. The party's driver who used to be a cat burglar and is in a contract with an Elf god in return for magical powers. A grumpy, no nonsense fire mage who was a veteran of the same war as the necromancer and the farmer who is connected with an evil witch because of an experimental heart transplant he received. A young and ambitious Duchess who seeks to get glory and power. A soldier from an allied country who is becoming more and more disillusioned with the world but recently got a magical waifu. A young college student thrust into war and broken by the harsh reality of industrialized war. A young bard who is learning the art of healing because of his dead childhood friend. An artificial warrior who is discovering what it means to be human. An exiled mage from the country that the PC's countries are at war with. A magical researcher from the same country as the mage although since she wasn't exiled and joined the party prior to the war, she is caught between conflicting loyalties. Finally a Phoenix who is with the party because the necromancer hijacked his reincarnation and decided to stick with the party after the necromancer severed their contract because he liked the party.

Currently, the world is engulfed in the Great War and the party is returning to the New World to investigate how an enemy colony was able to stay supplied despite a year long siege by Imperial colonial forces and escort a relief flotilla to the starving citizens. They are fresh from fighting a proxy war turned full on total war in a small country to the south of theirs between their empire and DEUS VULT: the country.

Half the country's forests have been burned to a crisp by the DEUS VULT guys to flush out the fae that inhabit the forests, the original prince of the country was framed for an assassination attempt by the party and executed to be replaced by a young kid left in the care of a fae that the party forged an impromptu alliance with. Said fae has shown before that she has no reluctance to use mind magic and other methods to get what she wants.The DEUS VULT guys have been pushed back to their border so for now, by a surprise offensive and the party managed to zombify an angel sent by God. They managed to avoid a Crusade being called and ISIS tier insurgency from happening in the former DEUS VULT territory by clever use of propaganda against any potential insurgents.

Basically pic related.

Party is a combo of demon mercenaries, a human, and a fallen angel working for the minor lord of a Great House in the 9 circles of hell. They have just been tasked with finding his run away half human son.

Party's officially formed a kercenary group and was ordered to work with another group called 3-minute warning, formerly 7. Right now they're escorting a caravan and stopped at a town the older characters have been to before.

After seeing a town fair on, we took part in party games and entertained the locals, before one of the PCs actually asked why the fair was on. We were then informed that it was because a witch was being burned that day. Upon some of the party going off to try and save it, my Chaotic Good Tiefling ran up and Superman Punch'd a guard in the face, which is the exact freeze frame the session ended on.

It was a good session, although it's getting a little hard to do some more character focused stuff, I'm still having fun.

"Blackhawk Down but it's on Mandalore".

tl;dr
The party eagerly awaits the station's newest K9-Unit into the force

Were police officers in a medieval setting. A couple of the party members were afflicted with a poltergeists age increasing fear effect and needed to seek a temple to reverse it. A temporary replacement PC for one of them is coming next session, and one of the party members absolutely hates and is terrified of of their race, which are dog like in appearance. Hilarious Hijinks are to be expected.

May as well actually list the party, forgotten some alignments and subclasses. We're about level 5.

In the original group:
Cassian the Human Druid, often the most level-headed and almost always turns into a Dure Wolf

Braum the alcoholic Mountain Dwarf Cleric, often rides Cassian as a Dire Wolf for sick combos

Azaelthryn the pyromaniac High Elf Wizard, crippling overspecialised but fun to play with

Arterius the Human Paladin, currently has a magic sword which slays undead good, otherwise trying to be more noble by taking on an NPC apprentice, does a lot of sneaking and backstabbing, very high AC

And for 3-Minute Warning, the group formed of the new PCs:

Val the Dragonborn Bard, plays some obscure drum and is terrible with children, often smells like sulfur, former pirate

Killeus the Ancestral Guardian Tiefling, speaks in the third person, basically a fusion of Achilles, The Rock and Chris Benoit

And Max Power the Firbolg Cleric, large and the one really in charge despite what Killeus says
