Halloween adventures: meh
Dia de los Muertos adventures: AWESOME!
"The adventure begins," I explained, "on a plane, heading towards southern mexico." I indicate the plane that I've drawn on the battlemap. "The Hoffmann Institute has recieved word of a very unusual find." I placed the team's detective on the battlemat, next to the critically wounded NPC pilot. "Workers digging the foundation for a new church have unearthed an exact copy of the Piedra del Sol--The aztec calendar stone" I place the team's doctor/pilot at the rear of the plane, adjacent to one of the uzi-weilding terrorists. "Or rather, the original that the Piedra del Sol is a copy of--Our sources suggest that this new stone is several thousand years old." I place the team's gunman about fifty feet away from the plane, and pointedly note the lack of parichute. "Roll Initiative."
Also in this episode:
Giant Snakes + Friendly Fire = -9 hp
Sacrilege: "Don't eat that bread. It's for the dead people"
Tommy Lee Jones as the Man in Black: "Mira a la luz roja, por favor."
Quetzalcoatl vs. Tezcatlipoca--One night only
Fral Telekinesis Whack-a-mole
Fun times all around. Not really that scary, per se, but I don't think I could have pulled of scary anywhere in that campaign.
