Works
Midst Cosmos - Produced in partnership with Critical Role, the Midst Cosmos is the science-fantasy setting of several stories in various mediums, which can be enjoyed in any order. Support our work, explore bonus content, and learn more at midst.co.
MIDST - The small desert planet of Midst spins on the border between the two halves of the cosmos: the dazzling Un and the mysterious Fold. Life is simple for most of the planet’s inhabitants… until an influential civilization known as the Trust takes an interest in Midst and sparks an unexpected chain of events, intertwining the lives of three complicated antiheroes. Also, unrelated to any of that, Midst’s moon is about to fall out of the sky and cause reality to eat itself alive, so that’s not great either. Unsolved murders, cult brainwashing, and supernatural darkness all combine to create a clusterfuck of cosmic proportions. Listen on YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts
Moonward: A Midst Roleplaying Story - A 4-part video TTRPG mini-series set immediately after the events of Midst, following a cast of characters on an unsanctioned rescue mission to the sunken remains of Midst’s destroyed moon. Featuring Xen as Guide Narrator, and Liam O’Brien, Marisha Ray, Matt Roen, and Sara Wile as players. Watch on YouTube
UNEND - Several decades after the events of Midst and Moonward, a supernatural ship and a remarkable crew set forth on an expedition to explore the highest heights, deepest depths, and furthest reaches of the known cosmos. But their journey is fraught with peril as they discover truths and realities far stranger than any of them could ever have imagined. Listen on YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts
Midst: Tales from the Cosmos - Three standalone comics published by Dark Horse illuminate new aspects of the Midst cosmos: the historic origins of the titular islet itself, the everyday struggles of average working-class Trust citizens, and a transformative disruption to an isolated deep-Fold community. Get it from Dark Horse or wherever you get your comics
Blueberries Hill - Inspired by classic children’s storybooks, Blueberries Hill is a mostly improvised, entirely silly 6-episode podcast miniseries about civilized animals solving small problems while learning big lessons about friendship.
