Time period: Modern day. Place: The west coast. Perhaps California or Arizona. The situation: A group of neighbors who keep their community safe from monsters are noticing odd happenings. Cell phone calls are dropped, but the service tech insists everything is fine. The GPS devices are no longer working accurately. People are starting to realize long distance communication is becoming unreliable, increasing a sense of isolation from family and friends around the world. "It's just the beginning," States Lincoln, your neighbor. He sits on the front porch and hands you a computer print out. It lists the names of several people and hand written beside them are corporations. Verizon. Facebook. Garmin. "These people are no longer independent people." He insists. "They have been made into ghouls by different vampires. I think we are seeing the first steps of a serious situation to isolate us. People used to write about dark days and diseases, people vanishing without a trace. Without Facebook and Instagram, without a TV and a call to 9 - 1 - 1', we could be isolated again. Without being able to call one another or rely on GPS, we may become isolated." "What do you think we should do about it?" Kristen asked as she checks the list on Google. "You may be receiving suspect information." Lincoln points out. "I think we need to prepare. We need to go get maps, now. We need to get reliable radios and get them out to vulnerable people. We need to start stocking up on supplies." "This isn't just our community." A neighbor worries. "No." Lincoln agrees. "Call your Grandma. Call her neighbor. Arrange someone to check in on elderly and kids... because this may make something of an opportunity for bad people..."
A monster hunting rpg where the people work together. They work together to protect one another from monsters, and from an unstable situation. When you can not call 911, who can you rely on? Is the truck going to restock your local Wal - Mart?
A community comes together with many different skills to educate the children, protect the elderly and repel any one looking for an easy mark. This is an RPG where a group of people write together what they will do as a variety of things happen. Perhaps one week, cell phones stop working. The next week, the fresh produce does not arrive in the store. What will the people do? Can they trade goods with local farmers and get food to their neighbors? Will they start stocking up on goods as soon as things start going off, appearing perhaps odd or paranoid to others?
We will be using Hunter the Vigil Character sheets. Your characters could have hunted two creatures in the past - a ghoul, vampire, witch or werewolf. You can earn more experience points with well developed back stories. You should all be neighbors to one another and know each other on sight.
The story is about three to five neighbors who come together after they witness the inexplicable - a neighbor transforming from a normal person into some terrifying thing and frightening off an aggressive attacker. Is this neighbor to be spoken to? How would one even go about something like this? What if that other thing with the sharp teeth and blood on its' mouth comes back while you are sleeping?
Your characters are all neighbors of a suburb of California and live in close proximity to one another. You can take liberties with your housing situations such as renting a two bedroom house from an older couple in Arizona or staying in an apartment.
Characters:
It is possible to have your character have been involved in one other hunt - perhaps killing a ghoul or being attacked by a werewolf. Starting XP is 30.
Feel free to submit two characters. You can have one drop out due to work or family obligations or if one has an untimely death, you can introduce the second character to the cell.
Character Submission:
Name
Age
Appearance (Anything someone can see walking up to them - height, eye and hair color, manner of dress)
Brief History:
A few lines of pertinent information - Do they have living parents? Siblings? How do they support themselves? Who are their close friends?
Please make a character sheet on this site and add the link here
I will post any requests for modifications and approvals. Once approved, jump into the thread that I shall make, the Meet & Scream.
This is largely about cooperation to stay alive, so feel free to brainstorm and world build with one another and suggest places in town. For example, David has a partner, young son, age 5, and owns a comic Book store, Comic Sans Diego. The characters can use this as a place to stage instead of someone's home. Let me know if you have questions.
