…and a rude gesture or two
Future Doc here, commenting from 2017. The previous version of this post was done on LiveJournal and the pics I had put in it never transferred, so I’m replacing the whole post with Some Random Gaming Ideas.
1: Set a campaign at the very end of a millennia (or more) of magic. Magic, along with the various magical lifeforms and other stuff, has almost faded from the world and science is on the rise. The PCs are tasked with taking the last great Magical Thing to a stasis chamber located in the ass end of nowhere for a 2,000 year rest before it can bring magic back. They are being chased by Evil Bastards who want to stop magic from ever returning.
2: Flip the above around to the mid 20th Century and have the PCs be a bunch of young misfits who are tasked with finding and activating the Magical Thing. Set this during the Red Scare and they can be chased by both the Commies and the FBI, as well as cultists and general weirdos.
That’s all, folks!
Damn, that’s a fine game-stuffed room. We already have an urge to move (space getting a bit small for the four of us) and now I want an extra room for my games. I’d probably end up with posters of pre-Raphaelite chicks instead of gaming posters, but that’s just me.
