Adelaide

Presenting audio drama in a more intimate format, constructed as a role-playing game where as the player/protagonist, you determine the outcome of the story by the individual choices you make.

“You’ve awoken in a building, on the ground floor lobby, bloodied, boarded up from the outside, falling apart in the dark, with no memory of who you are, the dark passageways breathing with dissonance, all elevators at ground floor waiting, possessing in equal parts, a desire to investigate & to escape.”

All pathways & scenarios will be published in the coming months, but if you wish to share the game with those you know, I encourage you to do so.

To play, register in the form at the bottom of the page, after listening to Pathway One.

How to Play

To play the game Adelaide, enter your email address, username & the selection of your first path (One of the four elevators, or dark passageways) You will be then provided your own page & password where you can play the game.

Each selection leads to an episode - run/reading/listening time of about ten minutes.

Each game is free, but we do ask for a contribution if you are able to give, as all funds go to helping my brother Salim, who is currently dealing with Stage 4 Liver Cirrhosis

Salim will need a liver transplant to save his life, so while we search for a living liver donor, we’re raising funds to go towards paying for his rent, food & medication.

Adelaide is part of the ‘Play a Game’ series that combines traditional RPGs with Audio Drama.

If you don’t want to play, but do want to follow the pathway of one story, I’m uploading one of the pathways here for you to sample.

A Quick Word

As I’m sure you’ve seen elsewhere on the site (specifically at Emergency Fundraiser for Salim — VMH) my brother Salim has Stage 4 Liver Cirrhosis. Without a liver transplant soon, he will die.

He’s been on the waiting list for almost two years. His work has now moved him to long-term disability and that affects his benefits as well for very expensive medication. The financial strain on him is only exacerbating his condition.

We’ve been running a fundraiser for him, but it’s going pretty slow lately. We’ve also set up a campaign to help find him a living liver donor, but there are layers of bureaucracy that make it challenging to receive a transplant from a living donor in this country.

The fundraiser is for his rent, food & medication but more, it’s to buy us enough time to find him that living liver donor to save his life. If we can cover his expenses for the next two months, I can spend more time searching for a living liver donor to not only help him, but raise awareness for many others in our country who are in need of a transplant to save their lives (& how someone can help by being a living donor)

With that in mind, I’ll be doing a marathon of performances. Day after day, until we reach our goal, you’ll receive new work from Roncesvalles 2013 to the Audio Drama/RPGs, to This Poet Is/Not Dust (& a lot more) You can support my brother Salim at the link/button below.

I know it’s hard out there. I know of the financial uncertainty of things. But if everyone reading this donated $25 or more to him, it buys him that time for me to find him that living liver donor and we save his life.
