Perpetua 37: The Castle Eschatonica 05
Friends at the Table
It moved towards Antistrophe, Caoimhe, and Nicky through the dark as something other than itself. A creature of guile and hunger, whose taste for life is well developed and whose limbs are the limbs of others. Meanwhile, amidst the revelers of the High Masque, the moonlit wing’s adventurers mix and mingle. Will they try to puzzle their way through the rhyming door, or sate themselves on delicacies and dances instead of dungeoneering… This week on Perpetua: The Castle Eschatonica 05 Perpetua Guide [Community Addendum Part 03] What’s up every-freakin-body.

Perpetua 36: The Castle Eschatonica 04
Friends at the Table
The Castle Eschatonica has provided as sharp a contrast as one may imagine. In its sunlit west wing, Antistrophe, Caoimhe, and Nicky skulk through the shadows and face down foul creatures. In the eastern wing, dripping with moonlight’s majesty, the rest of our adventurers find themselves in a fete and the end of the world. But first impressions can be deceiving. Sometimes what is challenging may turn out facile in the end, and some respites may be more puzzling than preferred.

Perpetua 35 WIth the entryway of Castle Eschatonica behind them, the two newly shuffled groups of adventurers head into the dungeon’s perplexing (and perilous) hallways. Antistrophe Landrace, Uncle Nicky, and Caoimhe Wake find themselves amongst grime and dirt, with the sounds of explosions echoing in the distance. The rest of the group—Jonathan, Maebela, Elena Millefiori, Veile Lynndel, Brontë Adelvys, and his bodyguards Efta and Zolfta—are drawn by the sound of the winds towards something altogether more noble… This week on Perpetua: The Castle Eschatonica 03 ...

Friends at the Table
By a quirk of fate (and the meddling of a peculiar being named Gnova), two bands of adventurers came crashing into each other in the middle of the Dragon Path. After greeting each other and gaining an invitation to the mysterious Castle Eschatonica, they crossed the debris of echoed worlds, dodged the hungry eyes of a dragon-owl, and made their way into the castle. Now they face challenges like they’ve never yet seen… This week on Perpetua: The Castle Eschatonica 02 Perpetua Guide [Temporarily On Hold - v.0599] Some Feedback [Page 56 of 56] TheUnforgivenIII So I guess Nei is never coming...

The year is 397 BE—Before the End. And in the wide and colorful abyss known as the Dragon Path, fate spins two disparate threads together… This week on Perpetua: Castle Eschatonica 01 IRC Log started Dec 21 20:37 Channel: #perpetuaSpoilers 20:37 <Zelgadysk>: It’s not a big deal Nei, just wish I had thought to message you about it on the forums! 20:37 <FriendXofXNei>: It IS a big deal.

Fundraising for Immigrant Justice
Friends at the Table
On Sunday 15th and Monday 16th of February 2026, we’re going to be hosting ICEBREAKER, a two day fundraising marathon on to raise money for the Women’s Foundation of Minnesota’s Immigrant Rapid Response Fund!

Perpetua 32: A Picture of the Hills 05
Friends at the Table
Above Spillaway Peaks, the crew of the Little Snail has found signs of a horrible corruption, tainting not only the town’s oxen and their food, but perhaps of something even more fundamental. With only one clue to go one—the presumed whereabouts of a mysterious food seller—they travel further up the mountains in search of answers. What they find will draw them deeper into adventure than they ever could’ve imagined.

Perpetua 31: A Picture of the Hills 04
Friends at the Table
This episode includes discussion of animal injury and illness, including descriptions of wounds and death. A mystery (and the need for a little spending money) has sent the crew of the Little Snail up into the hills of Spillaway Peaks. In between attending to their escortee, the locally famous photographer Waylon, Veile, Nicky, Jonathan, and Elena encounter the edges of a strange curse. What has happened to the Oxen of the Peaks? Can it be reversed? And what might it mean for the Perpetuan Cycle… This week on Perpetua: A PIcture of the Hills 04 Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.058] NPCs &...
info_outlineElena. Jonathan. Nicky. Veile. Four would-be adventurers, drawn together by circumstance yet bound by fate. At the helm of the Little Snail, they’ve driven full speed towards the glint of an assassin’s scope, believing that sometimes, the safest place to hide from a killer is right under his nose.
Whether or not it will work, this tactic has brought them to new sights, and a new city: Calstega Bay. This industrious burg was once ruled by a tyrannical limb of the Adelvys Dynasty, Grand Sonnerian royalty and masters of the Manakin, doll-like beings brought to life by powerful, clockwork magic. When the Manakin took their freedom, they turned the Duke’s palace into a people’s plaza, and transformed the city into a seaside sanctuary for the curious and creative.
But today, the city faces a new threat. The Valte Empire. All across the world, in search of the power to halt the coming apocalypse, they have deployed their best, whether canny, competent, or cruel. Opal. Onyx. Cinnabar. Citrine. Zorite. Zircon. Alabaster. Agate. Spread across Perpetua in pairs, these marshals and commodores, these spymasters and scientists desperately seek an anti-apocalyptic solution, no matter the cost.
And today, that cost is the people of Calstega Bay, newly occupied by this airborne stratocracy. Whether by iron sword or velvet glove, the Valte plunder the city, working alongside a hired killer on his own fated mission.
As the crew of the Little Snail tries to maneuver through the world of politics and power, they may just end up in dark places, lit only by flashes of a fight older than this world—and perhaps, older than life itself.

Some Feedback [Page 14 of 18]
TheDiamondRanger
Is there a way to change classes in this one or is that only in the last game?
FriendofNei
Hey guys, sorry to derail but I really need some help on the Calstega Bay section. I have most of the big fights and everything stratted out already, but the one thing I'm struggling with is the big competition section (which you should make sure to skip if you want to do ANY shopping before things really kick off, by the way!)
Is anyone able to reverse engineer how the judge calculations work? I thought it had to do with favored ingredients but I"m not sure. Anyone have any good recipes?
Also, DiamondRanger, there isn't a previous game in this series, you must be thinking of something else.
TheDiamondRanger
Isn't this a sequel to KosmoKairosis in the same universe?
As for recipes, I know how to make a hamburger, toast, and my I learned how to make scrambled eggs last week but other than that I don't cook.
Alukard83
You should try using those weird Dragon Path ingredients if you have them, I think they give bonus points?
TheDiamondRanger
Wait does this game have cooking in it?
Alukard83
. . . . . . . . . Are you even playing the game? Nicky IS A CHEF.
TheDiamondRanger
I thought NIcky Dashiel was a Dark Blade/Gourmet. And no I’m not playing, because I don’t have enough trade in points. I’m hoping i get it for my birthday though.

Alukard83
Are you allowed to be on this website? AND WHAT DO YOU THINK GOURMET MEANS.
TheDiamondRanger
I asked my dad and he says it means a really expensive meal.
Alukard83
You thought Nicky was an EXPENSIVE MEAL?
CarlsSr
Wait, how DO you make a hamburger in Perpetua?
