“The Holiday Special That Didn't Happen” is a Standard One Shot using the Rebel Scum rules for Polymorph. Led by Ansel Burch

We have to get our dear friend back home in time for Light Day, a very real holiday we've all heard of before. They may come from a planet that is all one biome but their hometown is still tiny and the planet is poorly mapped. We're going to need all of our astrogation and navigation skills to make it in time. Fingers crossed the space fascists don't give us any trouble on the way.

This game will be great if you like Star Wars, road trip comedies, and making fun of the Star Wars holiday Special.

We will use pre-made characters. https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0582/8372/0819/files/RebelScum_CrewoftheLastHope.pdf?v=1708710365

You arrive by happenstance, choice, or against your own will at the town of Hobb's End. A festival is in full swing, a rare sight in the Dying Lands. Treats, games, and competitions offered at every corner. There are prizes to the victors, and to the lucky chosen, or the brave volunteers, a chance at something far greater. Claim your prizes, and perhaps you will get to prove your worth to the Gods Beneath the Hill.

This game will be great if you like Morbid humor, dark fantasy, weird fiction, The Witcher, and Gothic horror.

https://scvmbirther.makedatanotlore.dev/ Please make your characters using this character generator. Enable MBC content, and click Kill This One until you find one you like, then hit Save This One.

The character generator is fairly self-explanatory. However, if you want to make your own character instead the rules are in the free rulebook linked above.

"In this one-shot, you’ll play as members of The Red Hand Adventuring League. Your guild is frequently contracted to kill various beasts or bring back treasures from treacherous dungeons—it’s nice work if you can get it.


But being an adventurer is a hard life, and sometimes a short one. Sometimes the jobs break bad, and that’s where you come in. A member of the guild’s Clean-up Crew, you’re being sent into a long abandoned, and most assuredly haunted, castle to finish what another party has started and bring them home….if there’s anything left. "

This game will be great if you like The Mummy, Supernatural, Pitch Black, etc....

“Whiskercliff Cemetery” is a Standard One Shot in the Mausritter system. Led by Nona de Koning


"<b><u>Session pitch - Whiskercliff Cemetery:</u></b>

A cemetery sits perched on the edge of a cliff, smothered by an ominous mist. A haunted crypt stands alone. The undead crypt keeper roams the graveyard fiercely guarding those buried within. What has drawn adventurers to this foreboding place? Do they seek treasure? Will they rescue the souls trapped in this mortal realm? What dangers will they uncover? Play to find out!


<b><u>About Mausritter:</u></b>

The settled mice huddle together, hidden in their settlements in trees and burrows and walls, scraping and saving. A tenuous existence. You are not like those settled mice. By choice or by necessity you are an adventurer. You live by your luck, your smarts, your bravery. With your friends by your side, you will abandon the warmth and safety of the mouse settlements and venture forth into the dark and dangerous places where other mice do not dare to tread. There is great wealth to be found by those who are willing to take it. 


It's a huge and dangerous world out there. It does not look kindly on a small mouse. But if you are very brave and very clever and just a bit lucky, you might be able to survive. And if you survive long enough, you might even become a hero amongst mice."

This game will be great if you like spooky season, Redwall, The Rescuers, The Hobbit, Over The Hedge, Thumbelina, OSR style RPGs

We will build level 1 characters in session.

Character creation is lightning quick and involves just a few random rolls. We'll do this together at the start of the session. If you've played Mausritter before and want to bring an existing character, contact me upfront to discuss.

You are a kobold, a scrawny dragonling whelp, and you have been tasked by the capricious and cruel MIGHTY DRAGON KING to sneak into a rival dragon’s hoard and steal as much loot as you possibly can in order to win favour.

“Grave Robbers of Thracia” is a (Funnel) Playtest session in the DCC RPG / Dungeon Crawl Classics system. Led by Bob Brinkman.

Legend speaks of a Thracian legion that vanished in the aftermath of the kingdom’s fall. For centuries, tales of corpse-eating fiends clad in ancient armor have been whispered in dark taverns, along with stories of a lost treasure hidden within a hidden tomb. Now, as villagers are disappearing and the graveyard is empty, it is time to confront an ancient evil linking two fallen kingdoms.

This game will be great if you like darkly-tinged RPGs and the works of Jennell Jaquays The game runner will provide 0-Level funnel characters.

This session will be especially good for new players.

“Kobold Endeavor” a Standard One Shot in the Kobold Endeavor system. Led by Rayne Bakcheious

You are a kobold, a scrawny dragonling whelp, and you have been tasked by the capricious and cruel MIGHTY DRAGON KING to sneak into a rival dragon’s hoard and steal as much loot as you possibly can in order to win favour. The problem is, you’re terrible at everything - except creating distractions. Can you stack up enough distractions to get in, get the treasure, and get out alive? Probably not.

“Mausritter: Stragglers” a Standard One Shot in the Mausritter system. Led by Nona de Koning

Years ago, workers tunneled and toiled and extracted near-endless hauls of valuable ores from the mine. Further surveys were made, and plans were drafted for more and more tunnels through the earth. Equipment failed. Workers went unpaid. Mice went missing. Weeks of quota vanished without a trace. Now, the mine lies dormant. Deed-holders cast blame about sabotage. Rumours circulate of poisonous gasses and mice gone mad. Interlopers rummage around in the remains. A former mining town dwindles into obscurity. And in the deep wound of the earth, writhing in slag and runoff, something slithers, crawls, then steps upward... Is your mouse brave enough for this adventure? Come join us!

This game will be great if you like Redwall, The Rescuers, The Hobbit, Over The Hedge, Thumbelina, and OSR style RPGs

“Prince Charming, Reanimator” a Standard One Shot in the Dungeon Crawl Classics system. Led by Colm McCarthy.

"In all kingdoms there are tales, and in the Barony of Westlake, it is said that the Grimmswood hides the ruins of a long-lost realm. The daughter of its final king, cursed by a malevolent faerie, pricked her finger on a spindle upon her sixteenth birthday, in the blossom of her youth, and died. With her death, the kingdom went to ruin. Few now dare to go far into the Grimmswood, although the riches of the lost kingdom are said to lie unclaimed within. Fear of dark fey magic and even greater evils keep men out.

Or they did so until now. For Prince Hubert Charming of Westlake has determined that the long-dead Princess Beauty is only cursed to sleep away the aeons, and he will have her for his bride. His men rounded up a stable of “volunteers” at the beginning of one early autumn morning, and here you are, with what makeshift arms and equipment you had upon you when you were “volunteered”.

Your mission, the Prince’s Bailiff explains, is to enter the ruined castle, find the place where the “Sleeping” Beauty lies, and bring her forth for Prince Charming to restore with a kiss. Those who choose not to go upon this quest must take their chances with the Prince’s Guard, twenty men strong, and be declared outlaw. Those who choose to hazard their lives within the ruined castle may keep what they find, apart from the sleeping princess, but dare not leave without her."

“Put to Rest” a standard one shot game in the Avatar Legends system. Led by Ansel Burch.

The history of Royal Caldera city frequently leaves out the Battle of the Ancestors. Those records which can be found speak of the second wave, brought about by warlord Shu and his army of opportunists. Shu’s family was well connected and useful in the reunification following the final battle ensuring that his deeds were relegated to the footnotes of history, easily swept away by the arrival of Avatar Szeto. The heroes who stopped him are no less revered. Their statues gleam in the sun and have inspired generations, even if their plaques read vaguely and the names are unfamiliar. Is one of those statues secretly of you?

“Bend the Will” a standard one shot game in the Avatar Legends system. Led by Ansel Burch.

The history of Royal Caldera city frequently leaves out the Battle of the Ancestors. The first wave of undead were stopped but the heroes who made the day had gone missing. Court records show that a private meeting was held with these benders when they finally re-surfaced and many Fire Sages have since debated on the nature of the spirit world they claim to have visited and how it differs from the one known to the Avatars and people of the spirit wilds. Are you one of the few who know these stories firsthand?

"Beneath the crumbling walls of a keep lies an unexplored warren of caverns stretching into unknown darkness. Within the depths, an ancient evil stirs and grows hungry. Forgotten horrors, once relegated to legend, are on the move – with only your band of heroes between them and their goal!

What begins as simple exploration rapidly becomes a struggle against denizens of the underworld, and the very environs of the underworld itself.

The history of Royal Caldera city frequently leaves out the Battle of the Ancestors. The fire nation had fractured and lost all sense of itself as warring factions tore apart the land and its people seeking control of resources and survival. Plagues and famine had devastated the previously stong bonds shared by fire benders and their people. This unbalance manifested finally in the rising of the ancestors as zombies, sweeping across the cities and plains of the fire nation some even retaining their ability to bend. Will you be among the heroes to save the nation and help restore it to unity?
