“The Wedding Ring at The Christmas Market” is a Slightly Modified One-Shot in the Unknown Armies 3rd Edition system led by garhallertie.

"Three days ago, PETRA BELLAGAMBA lost her Wedding Ring at the Christmas Market in a town none of you has actually been to. It's a nice town, but it has too big of a market this year. Nothing on the scale of Nuremberg, but it's pretty big. 

That might warrant hiring dangerous people to find a small lost object in a huge, shivering crowd on a snow day. But the real reason is that PETRA lost The Wedding Ring, a unique and indestructible object with strange powers.

Not everyone knows about these powers, but the people who do will stop at nothing to get ahold of it before you do.

Also, there's a really good raclette at this one stall you know about. The cheese is incredible.

PLEASE NOTE: This game is set in the Lost Room Universe (a show that came out on the Sci-Fi channel in 2006), not the normal Unknown Armies Universe.

(Unlike a normal Unknown Armies game, you won't be able to start out with an Adept School. If there's an Avatar identity that really fits, maybe.)

Keep in mind that Unknown Armies is a horror game and may delve into uncomfortably adult areas from time to time. We will still start with a quick Lines and Veils just in case!

You'll pretty much be creating your character, defining your group goal, and building their connection to 5 key NPCs (provided by the GM) as you go along."

This game will be great if you like 

  • competing with NPC parties

  • making up your own version of a holiday event like Christkindlmarkt

  • disrupting such an event with weirdness, maybe even a gunfight (but you're probably more sensible than that.)

  • magic Items that look like 1960s kitsch household objects

  • gaining skill bonuses from mental health changes

  • A horror world where there are magic objects and humans, but no other monsters

  • A consequence-based resolution system.

We will build characters in the session.

Beginner Level ("Street Level" in old UA Parlance) https://www.onarmiesunknown.com/resources/quickstart-ua3-character-concepts-identities/ New players are welcome.
