Colony Black - Useful Colony links post

Every time someone has come to the cluster and tried to recover, or reactivate the portals and gates here, disaster has struck.   If the Player Characters (or worse, the authorities, or even worse, the Company) get their hands on these portals will it happen again? How soon?

 A few additional resources that would be of extraordinary extra help in making use of the material in Colony Black! Enjoy.

Out now! Apocrypha Obscura - Transmissions from the Dreaming Gynoid

A compilation from the first years of the Dreaming Gynoid blog. Compiled from five years worth of articles, posts, and missives, many no longer available,

Longtime readers of the blog will find here much that is familiar and more than a little that was lost in the blogspot purge    I've gone through and tagged (I think) everything here int he blog that appears herein.  Transparency - it's a thing.   Also I don't want anyone thinking I'm trying to mislead anyone here.   Most of this material has been previously published, often in a somewhat different form, on the Dreaming Gynoid blog from 2018 to the present.  Some material also appeared prior on the  “Swords of Jaldipoor,” “I Shoot Him in the Face!”  and “Lens of Unrectified Night” Blogs, from 2015-2018.
