Welcome! This website is home to the Tales from Trantor actual play podcast! We’re a group of Australians who play tabletop role-playing games, like Dungeons & Dragons, Cyberpunk and Traveller, where we record our game sessions to turn into an audio podcast series.
We recently finished playing and recording a series using Cyberpunk Red rules and settings, by R. Talsorian Games called Brace the Badlands. Our latest endeavour is Student of Strixhaven, played using Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition by Wizards of the Coast.
If you’re interested in our adventures and want to learn more, look around, and you’ll find some really cool content.
