What we know is that right now, in this moment, there is an opportunity to build something.</em></p> <p style="margin-left: 20px"></p> <p style="margin-left: 20px">The Quiet Year is a map game.

Every decision and every action is set against a backdrop of dwindling time and rising concern.</p> <p style="margin-left: 20px"></p> <p style="margin-left: 20px">The game is played using a deck of cards – each of the 52 cards corresponds to a week during the quiet year. Each card triggers certain events – bringing bad news, good omens, project delays and sudden changes in luck.

But now, we’ve driven them off, and we have this – a year of relative peace. One quiet year, with which to build our community up and learn once again how to work together. Come Winter, the Frost Shepherds will arrive and we might not survive beyond that. But we don’t know about that yet. What we know is that right now, in this moment, there is an opportunity to build something.[/I] The Quiet Year is a map game. You define the struggles of a post-apocalyptic community, and attempt to build something good within their quiet year. Every decision and every action is set against a backdrop of dwindling time and rising concern. The game is played using a deck of cards – each of the 52 cards corresponds to a week during the quiet year. Each card triggers certain events – bringing bad news, good omens, project delays and sudden changes in luck. At the end of the quiet year, the Frost Shepherds will come, ending the game. No gaming experience necessary. Materials provided.[/indent] [list=1] [*]Lifelike [*]pvt. patterson [*]Reidzilla [/list] [highlight]This event is FULL.[/highlight] [/section] [section] [size=+1]Morning Game 2: [b]Mixed Messages[/b][/size] [url=]Supernatural[/url], Ninjacat, Table D [indent] [img]http://ninjetti.envy.nu/RPG/SPN/MMwebpic.jpg[/img] The Crew has stepped in it [I]deep[/I], this time. . .right about up to their [B]necks[/B]. Something has been killing college students, leaving girls' bodies as withered husks. Could be an incubus, could be a shtriga, could be any number of things that feed on human life force—could be the freakin' Horseman Famine of the Apocalypse, for all anyone knows. Regardless, someone has to put a stop to it before Homecoming turns into a slaughterhouse— —Looks like it's time for another RoadTrip. Pregens provided; for ages 18+.

The leaves rustling in the trees on a still day. The movement just past the corner of your eye. We are taught to ignore the foolish impulse to react. But for those who look too long, too closely, there is another world pulsing just behind the facade of the one we know. Unimaginable things skitter by in the darkness, and sometimes they intrude on the reasonable, ordered world. They seep from the shadows, they rattle their chains and they force you to look. If you're lucky--very, very lucky--you'll survive what you see. But you'll never be the same again. A Nightmare At Hill Manor is an introductory adventure for White Wolf’s World of Darkness setting; no prior experience is required and pre-generated characters will be provided. Due to some potentially graphic descriptions of horror violence, this game my not be suitable for younger or sensitive players.[/indent] [list=1] [*]Dokomo [*]Netter [*]Catt [*]ekb [*]... [*]...

And sure, the Red and White Vampire Courts have always had a presence there, and the thresholds of homes are suspiciously hard to maintain... ..But when the vampires think they've figured out the secret of Aurora's darkness and how to tap into its power, when the Black Court also appears on the scene, making a play. . .Something Is Definitely Up, and it's all too likely the vanilla mortals are going to pay the price for it, unless someone In The Know does something about it.....[/I] [U]When Vampires Attack[/U] is a Submerged Power Level scenario set in [B]the Dresden Files[/B] RPG setting, the same as the novels, starring original pre-gen characters, with Fudge Dice provided- -Aurora is only 40 miles west of the Loop in Chicago, but it mostly stays off the paranormal radar, for some strange reason. . .could have something to do with the fact there's enough churches in Aurora to fit 1300 people in each one- -and Aurora has a population of close to a quarter-million...
