[QUOTE="Stormborn, post: 1313429, member: 14041"] I would love to be playing in an Urban Arcana game, and ran one for a little while. Player interest killed it. However, if its brainstorming you want: 1. While it was never revealed, in the campaign I was running the Bad Guys were the Beloved who were building a toxic dump as a way of long term sacrifice. I was going to have roach thralls,swarms, toxyderms, and homunculi in a big Dump Crawl at the end. It never happened. 2. Rural Arcana:Gravediggers - Dukes of Hazard + Buffy. An international conspiracy of funeral homes keeps the world safe from the Undead. 3. Nephilim: Players are all decendants of angels and demons, Aasmir and Tieflings or otherwise. Heaven and Hell may have an agenda, but the left over children of that conflict have their own plans. Change it up and have them all be genasi, from FR, instead. 4. Gates: Marvel's Exiles comic + Stargate +Quantum Leap, with a UA twist. Players have to move from reality to reality protecting the multverse by making small specific changes to the timeline. First up: A Yuan-ti Mage is impersonating the president. Fix it. 5. Tarot: The 4 suits are ancient houses and they are running a silent war in the streets. Have each PC choose a card and build a character around it, maybe give them some bonuses and some flaws with it. 6. Secret Archeology: THe world has a secret strange history, the PCs want to know it and preserve it. Read Planetary. You should check out Blood and Relics and the Menace Manual, use those two together with Urban Arcana and have lots of fun. [/QUOTE]
