Unspeakable Horror

GM: Michael Parker
Type: RPG
System: Trail of Cthulhu
Provided: All characters provided by GM
Rules Knowledge: Beginners Welcome
Can you handle what you find; in the depth of night, within the crypt, around the corner. You might never be the same after you can finally see… and speak aloud…

Trail of Cthulhu is a complete game of investigative horror set in the 1930s based on the work of HP Lovecraft. The game uses an adpated and enlarged version of GUMSHOE system which offers a laser-like focus on investigation, with characters driven to explore and investigate, even at the expense of their own health and sanity.
It supports both Pulp (for Indiana Jones, Robert E. Howard, thrilling locations sorts of games) and Purist (for intellectual horror and cosmic dread). HP Lovecraft’s work combined both, sometimes in the same story.

Jesus Hates Zombies
Sunday 9 AM in room 2063 for 4 hours
GM: Richard Taylor
Type: RPG
System: All Flesh Must Be Eaten
Provided: All characters provided by GM
Variations: Some house rules pulled from the Cinematic Eden System
Rules Knowledge: Beginners Welcome
Based on the comic book “Jesus Hates Zombies.” The All-mighty has sent his only begotten son back to Earth to retrieve the Faithful in the midst of a zombie apocalypse.

The only problems are that Jesus no longer has all of his divine powers, due to the loss of faith, and that God never told Jesus where the faithful are.

Join Jesus, his zombie pet Laz (short for Lazarus), and various other semi-famous characters who have banded together to rescue the first actual group of faithful from the zombies that have surrounded them.

It’s survival horror/dark comedy (hopefully) in the vein of the source comic book and Shaun of the Dead.

It is the Year of the Serpents Cunning and your adventuring band has become well known for its ability to deal with powerful monsters that threaten from the wilderness. First gaining your name from a bards tale about your exploits sung throughout Sharn, your band has been a rising star in Breland. Part of that fame was created when you encountered a young green dragon in the wilds near Vathirond and managed to drive it off from a small hamlet it was threatening. Since then, the tale has grown in the telling.. until it describes a terrible and horrible battle in which you slew a great wyrm in mortal combat high in the Howling Peaks.

All of you have benefited from the tale, prestige, respect, new positions in the church hierarchy, merchants seeking you out for lucrative business agreements. It troubled some of you to gain such fame from a deed that no longer matched your accomplishments. Some of you assuaged your guilt by blaming it on those who expanded the tale, others tried to correct the stories.. only to encounter admirers who assumed the protestations were false modesty.

Then recently your band was approached by a wealthy lord of House Lyrandar, Baron Arek Lyrandar the III, who boasted of your skill and talent in the main hall of the adventuring guild. He informed a rival lord, Sir Jeredith Ironhorse, that the tales were true and he could easily prove them. Turning to the onlookers, he claimed that he had been told of a curio shop that held, amongst its treasures, a genuine map to Vaelreth Firestorm’s lair within the Fangs of Argarak in Xendrik, an Adult Red Dragon that became infamous in the with his slaying of the well known band of Breland heroes, the Spiral Dancers.

In the face of this conversation, your band decided to take up this gauntlet of the challenge. Not only did it validate your misplaced fame, but the treasure of such a wyrm would allow each of you to accomplish personal missions of great importance. Not only that, but red dragons are well known to be vicious and evil creatures well deserving of the slaying.

The Baron gladly took you aboard his Airship and across the Thunder Sea to Stormreach in the dangerous continent of Xendrik. Now all you have to do is hunt down the dragon and slay it in its lair. Nothing could be more straight-forward. Of course, things are never as easy as that in a adventurers life.
