Thrice Cursed Adventurers

 

So Richard was away on a medical emergency so we played my Patreon ruined city adventure with Dallas & JB playing. 

So last game players escaped slavers and rested and were now 4th Lv. 

The mercenary was keen to get back to fighting.
The wizard had recruited several followers including charmed cultists and bandits and a priest and a fighter. Some were only zero at first and hope is the clerical student will get to 1st level. 

Considered robbing the magic library but the mention of weird creatures made them worry. Thought about getting bandits but a fairway on foot. Instead decided to see the ziggurat and a small temple nearby. Got to the temple and heard berserkers celebrating after killing cultists. Knowing these guys almost killed the party last time they took no chances and the wizard cast web. Most were really strong and tore free and all tried to go berserk (Wis roll). The wizard's bodyguard fighter threw a lamp in the web and it exploded wounding most of the berserk while missiles took down those not berserk. Finished the hang with a few wounds and spells but all impressed as the last time 4 beat the party. Found more urns using detect magic and the magic one had a zombi hand that choked the wizard before the merc killed it for good (we think). Took its gold ring. So after carried off their armour and weapons back to the explorers guild in the ruin. Had to hide berserker stuff from the psycho barbarian berserker in the camp and sold trinkets to a backpack peddler.

Recovered and were keen to set them off. The guild masters thief sister started talking to the adventurers especially the mercenary. Returned to the ruined temple and easily wiped out bandits. In the temple, they dug their hole opened and explored ancient palace basements below the ruin and also found a furnace and lots of rats. Found a ghast in a bed that stunk the party out and they managed to kill it. One tunnel the wizard sent his thief went down to find a light source saw a hermit with his beloved rat swarm. The rats noticed the thief and the hermit turned into a were-rat so he ran. The wizard saw the chase and used a web spell trapped which trapped the ratman and while others used fire to scare rats. Several times tried to throw burning oil at the web failed and they took a while before the merc waded into the web and killed the rat with his magic sword. 

Finally found some palace basement with rotting furniture and a chariot and scouting out half the room they could see by light. As the mercenary moved ahead with his lamp a woman in a flimsy nightgown came out of a doorway sobbing, oh thank goodness your not undead or cultists. She ran to hug the mercenary but he was not responsive and the wizard cast grease on her and she slipped and got mad. The succubi showed her true form and shrugged off magic missiles and hid in a bubble of darkness inside the grease area. The merc charged with his magic sword and slipped. The wizards magic missiles seemed ineffective. His follower a former demon cultist warned the demonic chanting was calling a demon. Someone helped the merc get out of grease with a spear and they backed off as a huge hairy boar-like winged demon appeared over 3m tall. The party all cried flee to warn each other in unison and they bravely ran away.

Back to the explorer guild ruin they saw the berserkers had left and now a bunch of nights had moved in. These knights seemed lower sort and battered and used to rough lives unlike the templars staying in the dungeon part of the guild. The wizard shiftiest follower warned they were known robber knights wanted in several kingdoms. Their linkboys were enthused and felt lucky to hold poles and pots and lamps for adventurers for a chance to learn the trade. Party avoided these guys despite friendly manners and awful stories of the kidnappings and beatings given. The wizard was also using his dream viewing spell on his followers recruited from bandits and cults to look for clues and how to help them better reform.

The next healthy free went to the ziggurat to look around and as rounded corner saw bandits hide in ruin temple prepare an ambush. There was a volley of missile fire and the bandit leader fled from a cantrip, then the mercenary who had been creeping under cover of building dived among them and two managed to flee. Party rested in the ruined temple a while and the wizard spied on an unconscious bandit survivors dreams.

Went to the top of Zigguratt and tried to get in but magic was required. I'm inserting the Sacred Temple of Erwadu a Dungeon Delve By R. Nelson Baily. They backed off planning on getting a new spell. Saw the baboon hill and the goat hill. Back to the explorers guild ruin and the Robber Knights had gone to the Sly Grog Shop (according to a thief is guild affiliated). While they were away a wounded adventurer hanging about for weeks lured the boys away and all were concerned. The Robber Knights were keen to attack the demon cult directly.

The party when recovered decided to wipe out the bandits. Marched into the bright sun and aimed for the hermit hill. As they went around they saw some bandits so hid and managed to defeat the rest and had to chase the last one fleeing down. But he got away only to be killed by ogres. The ogres picked up the body and marched towards the party and the bloody battlefield and made rude gestures. Told humans to back off and they considered the request. But decided ogres would have lots of gold like the last one.

Ogres moved in and the wizard summoned petty owl daemons to slow the ogres and all fired missiles. Lots of missiles and the mercenary attacking weakened some and lots of magic missiles but the party won and got the gold. After this heroic mess, they returned to rest and level up.

The mercenary adopted a young warrior woman and the wizard was going to recruit another two men because he didn't want to be one of those wizards who acted like pimps but he did decide he should employ one woman so he wasn't one of those all-male henchmen wizards. Followers are such fun. He got that knock spell and fireball so was keen to cause trouble. As he had so many followers now he wanted to leave the latest home as too much record-keeping for now.

So they managed to get to the bandits safely in the evening and the thief sneaked up a wall and killed a watchman on the outer wall of the roofless temple. Lots of bandits and dogs were inside celebrating and a few slavers were with them. The mercenary empowered by spider climb tried to kill a watchman but made a noise and the gig was up. The wizard moved his arc of fireball so blasted half the room of zero level bandits into carbon. Their huge ex gladiator chief with a sword challenged the merc as he killed a guard. Followers awaited outside with missiles and the wizard summoned his hooting owl fiends, several batches. The slavers were beaten down and their leader was just trying to speak and halt when magic missiles took him and the last two standing bandits surrounded.

Hot some magic loot and gold and took it home to study. I used my EMO Book of Cool Loot (treasure compilation from blogs) and this stuff came up. The party could identify only a few properties of the items but identified: +1 2-h sword the Prism Blade that lets you detect invisible when held. A frying pan that heats at will. An umbrella that shoots 4 burning hands a day, a skull with gold in its cracks and mystic symbols calls a ghoul once a day that obeys for ten minutes. Also, a pair of magic knitting needles that work 2 hours a day enough to make a sock or small scarf if given yarn. 

Party is interested in building a home base somehow to mind loot. Considering uniting with other adventurer parties (templars, amazons and robber knights).

Was big fun. Party finding ruins creepy, avoiding the darkness and interested in cleaning out evil humans mostly and recovering magical lore. Seem sure there is more than one cult. They have got rid of most of the bandits, quite a few cultists and most of the berserkers. Lots of factional problems abound and there are more adventurers coming.

Post Apoc New 1st Play Session & New Characters




So a few recent posts I put into a players booklet for a post-Apoc game of noobs and got a3 pc sheets and printed 2 books but shoulda had 3 at least. 28 pages digest size. Work in progress I will update on my Patreon until finished.

Worked pretty well to get ppl started and not too into mechanics. Working them into a range of skill choices as they level up and build on complexity. It needs some better information design too to use space better.  Players are mostly family of a younger gaming friend of highly educated professionals and pretty different to any group I've had in years.

So got 2 cyber wizards
A roadwarrior with a busted empty tank car
A wandering martial artist
And one player asked If she could be a clown
So lucky I did a clown mutation table
-I introduced her to clown husbandry on Tumblr

And it went well

Ran my intro scenario again.
Funny ppl looked up real towns on phones.
Plus had oddly specific questions I suggested they look on google earth.
Funny as my maps are based on google maps look a bit.
Possibly if I do a quickstart version I might limit character class choices.

So I used the generous system for rolls (3d6 reroll any 1 till none then add and allocate)
Then people selected classes and stuff and rolled backgrounds and we got:

Zorg the Cyberwizard - with tablet-book of arcane classic spells
Tim the Cyberwizard - with a tablet of fire magic spells
Segal Shatner - wandering wandering martial artist with katana and plastic 9mm 
Gunther - road warrior with a car wreck and a crude sawn off and six shells
Clowndette - mutant grew up as feral kid but tamed by clowns and got their spores

So the gang had convoluted backstories I think the mutant clown had the most commitment. They had somehow drifted into the starting town Mannahill. It's the built in campaign start so you start in a wasteland with low relics and easy critters then go up on the road to Broken Hill. One side effect of getting a vehicle is that you can get to areas way too powerful for you quickly. The party know about the city and are keen to get going but broke so they went to Sargeant Bulldog (an abhuman animorph dog cop) and his old man Bluey sidekick. Heard of some squtters that were suspicious to check on offered a few bits of silver and a voucher for a beer and mixed grill meal in the pub. 

Wandered a dried creek train and saw a car wreck among some trees and a ruined colonial shell of a tiny cottage with no roof and smoke. Segal and Gunther sneaked up to the wreck and saw dingos alseep in it about 4. Segal went back to chat and then Zorg urged Guther back. Decided that dumb dogs not an issue and went to the house. SOunds of jollity and a fire inside and none noticed enemies. Inside 4 cannibal swagmen were eating a butchered corpse. Tim the wizard blasted them with elemental fire and two fell and two fled the shelter. Guther and Segal shot them. As they considered investigating any loot, six dingos from the the car wreck charged and one had a collar. Some more shots and spells were slung. 
The clown preferred to use her sling and held back on firing their musket. 

Zorg sat back. "I didn't take any combat spells because Tim did so I just went for useful Identify and detect magic and stuff". ACtually this is kind of good as I have had to define what magic detects when everything is high tech really. So detect magic would detect anything with power or of advanced design or materials. Identify explores specific features and functions and use of any item. Know History tells of most traumatic interesting events of objects life and knowledge of past users. This is why playtesting is the best.

So they spent time looking over the cannibals gear and found a ancient flight suit of the poor guy being eaten. Was he an ancient? How did he get here? The Clown was Interested and found a sealed doc pouch on the suit with orders to drop a missile and a map.  

With loot and dogs they went to the sheriff and got 2 grams of silver and vouchers for the pub. Was told to show dingos to Sheila in the pub and she skinned them and put on a BBQ dinner for the locals and sold the dog skins.

Were keen to get moving to next down a day of walking away but Gunther said hey wait I've got a car I just need 6 bits of scrap and fuel 1 bit of silver a litre. Had a wander around town looking for work and went through caravan and met a Marino ram man who had a herd of regular sheep he was tending. He said they could have his scrap if they got these goats causing problems with his herd. Talking more it turns out they were Abhuman goatmen gang members but the party went off to their lair anyway. Found a caravan with a fence with 9 sheep in a pen looking unhappy and shorn badly. Two billy goat men were bullying sheep while anther was inside and one behind caravan cooking on a fire and fixing weapons.

Zorg after realiseing fancy items were rare here had learned his lesson and crawled close enough to make the goat men in the pen and a bunch of sheep pass out with sleep. Tim fire blasted the nannygoat woman inside and she tried to get out and was hit by Zorgs magic missile. The one behind the caravan fired a crossbow bolt at Gunther and he backed off feeling mortal after a shot. The clown fired their musket and jumped the fence and killed a goat still asleep. Segal got a shot at the goat and a crossbow bolt for his trouble. Tim got close and burning hands that bad goat finishing him and igniting the caravan. As the clown was partly fireproof she did a quick loot and found a bag of shotgun ammo.
 
Zorg was keen to eat the goat folk but most objected and explained basics of morality and this about not eating ppl in clothes who talk. 

So had 3 days resting and fixing the car and all the sheep they brought home got them 40 bits of silver and offer of custom wooly jolly jumpers. The clown got lots of pompoms to adorn their new airforce flightsuit that needed some decoration.

Moved on now with some more ammo found and keen for the road. Passed that day away town in first hour without slowing down doing 50km in the gas guzzling monster. Saw town in distance and 4 bikes were approaching. 
Gunther accelerated. The clowns musket was the best ranged weapon and she had a shot, they started spreading out. As bikes closer they were chicken abhumans, one bike had a rear passenger. Zorg used sleep destroying two bikes and riders, one bike exploded. Guther one hand on wheel fired his pistolgrip scrap shotgun and peppered a few. One biker threw a moltov and the pillion passenger lashed out a chain at Segal inside. Gunther lost control in shock from fire and the car spun 3 times and halted and the surviving bikers wounded moved on. Put out fire without much harm and looked at the roadkill splatters.Got a bike out of it and some more loot.

Arrived in new town for lunch and rest and car mostly surface burned and ok. Bike needed some scrap and had some bio fuel. Saw a shuttered intact police station and party curious. AParantly kids for 200 hundred years had tried to crack the door codes so they bribed the kids with joints and the wizards went to work code cracking. Gunther did repairs and Segal and Clownette went to look around town.

Finally code cracked and reveled robot desk sergeant within and called it a night.

Started Lv up procedure and the clown got a new mutation giving them a blinding phlegm sneeze and a drippy nose. 

All went well and was nice
My set up efforts were handy but will print out 2 more books 
and a revised players book.

I forgot to use background item table.

Notes For Post Apoc Game Start pt3 Weirder Classes



I have no idea what the above says sorry. I thought it was futuristic.

More quick builds for my game.

I will leave halflings and changelings and gnomes for now till I have a clear idea of

I need to write up the robot again and add more apps and alphabetical....
-explain moving and power limits and stuff better and more apps
-then do golem version with sigils or something and built-in repeating crossbows
Swim bladder/ballast tanks so you can swim
Mutant is very simple really and fine
Need to rewrite my psion list again asap

will be updating this and the last post as needed
-i may add several more classes or just do part 4
-i just want concepts solid before I do them

Gnomes as greys with psionic spells?

Never found a great fit for halflings post apoc but my recent reskins might - even just as beastlings, wee pissweak looking Animorphs. Cannibalism is always a good option but I just want a better rationalisation for them. I did have them as cloned for bunker dwellings and confined underground spaces where less size = more luxury and comfort. Perhaps something like the Novel Non-Stop, halflings returned from the stars too. I dunno

Maybe changelings could be more like The Thing from John Carpenter or as dominator secret psychic infiltrators or pod plant people or liquid metal terminators

Eldren
Star people returned from space
Before the end times, humans reached for the stars making Eldren colonise the stars. Many left and settled Mars, Luna and various jovian moons and some went further. Sometimes they return from their voyages. Others lived in orbitals and visit the surface. A few dwelled in secret underhill bunkers and shunned the outer world. Some went feral and live in the wilds. Some were used as cattle by Morlocks and were farmed as Eloi and drugged to repress their powers. Seen as beautiful and aloof, many fear them or resent them for surviving the apocalypse unscathed. Others fear the eldren agenda or more coming down.

Morlock
Cannibalistic mutant dwarves of the deeps

Mistaken often as dangerous beasts they thrive everywhere despite this and are often more advanced. Some Morlocks have come to the surface and lived among mixed communities and no longer want to eat everybody

Abhuman - based on human creations of science & mutation
During the end times, there were massive shortages of labour and troops and the pseudo flesh androids had revolted so animorphic abhumans were made to relieve this shortage. Many survived and many new types were spawned by AI in zoo complexes for various shadowy reasons. Animorphs sometimes split over herbivore vs carnivore or reptiles vs mammals but they will often unite against humans. Some have due to mutation changed to be more or less animal. There were said to be other humanoids made for war or exploring alien worlds but the last most significant type is necroids modified by alien necrovirus into semi undead. Abhumans get level benefits at higher benefits as their abhumanism develops.

Mutant - survivors of mutagenic weapons
During the apocalypse, those not enhanced by stabilisation treatments the current ancestors of humans did, were vulnerable to all kinds of mutations. Mutants undergo constant change and can become unrecognisable after a few years. They can survive what makes ordinary people devolve into cancerous lumps. Mutants are often treated poorly and are resentful and suspicious of humans. Many live in shantytowns outside trading posts and many prospects in contaminated zones. There are lots of types of mutation the tables below are simplified quick ones.

Robot - ancient automatons become sentient over centuries
Robots were common at the end times but after a spate of robot hacking terror attacks androids came to take some of their jobs. In the current era robots in the wild can be operating old programs or insane but many have managed to survive. Some serve AI gods and are accepted as such. Some scavengers attack robots for scrap. Robots add new apps to themselves as they rebuild themselves. Some remember where all parts came from.

Notes For Post Apoc Game Start pt2 Basic Classes

 

So these are post apoc versions of my basic classes modified for this game.
Next nonhumans (I might use less) plus mutant and robot.
I find these help to be a good quickstart for new players and late players or quick replacement characters. They can be changes they are a guideline of a character for speed and learnificating not rules. I gave fewer options in some. Also need to prep and rewrite my psionics spells too and doing this fixed a few bugs in skills and spells. Got a bunch of blank sheets to mess with too.

Programer 
Priests of the ancient machine gods
Post-apocalyptic priests who operate temples of the ancient computer systems. Many global and local systems exist, some good and some evil. Many AI overlords use agents to meddle in humanity's affairs and impose their strange codes of conduct. Priests have an implant that they use to channel their god's power usually on their palm or forehead if public (or hidden on buttocks or belly button if a secretive cult). This acts as their holy symbol and proof to other worshipers who have the same and is used to cast spells nd use holy powers or enter a temple inner sanctum.

These wasteland sorcerers have been implanted with strange psionic implants that let them tap into the powers of the various AI gods that control every aspect of reality.

As they don't require the brain-frying discipline of wizards they tend to be more lazy, self-indulgent and prone to starting personality cults or scams to rip off communities or both. In between living lives of vice, they often end up broke and on the move. Some prefer to keep moving and never look back.
