Campaigns in a nutshell. Adventures in a sentence.

Worn Out Words-I had a fever dream back in 2021 that might make a good adventure or campaign for one of the more mythical RPGs such as Exalted or Nobilis. In short, the words of the world's languages are getting worn out and used up. Someone needs to go on a quest to bring back new words or else nobody will ever be able to communicate again.

That would probably make a good short story, TBH.

The Charlatan- Non-combat antagonist who really does have magic powers but claims to have DIFFERENT magic powers. Like he claims to turn lead into gold but really he's just teleporting the lead away and teleporting gold in in its place

And one of the PCs had to take on the mantle of the divinity? And then the PCs understand all the bureaucratic headache of being a god. Sounds more like a Nobilis campaign than D&D tbh

That's the Sidereal Exalted

 

[Bohandas]

Overbooked - A troublemaking deity has promised several different groups exclusive control of a certain patch of land. Now there's a war on. The PCs must expose the deception and end the war.

The God of Grift!

 

[Bohandas]

Full Reboot - Paranoia. Friend Computer has finally decided to just kill everyone in Alpha Compmex and start from scratch. Its the only way to root out those subversive elements once and for all. The PCs are somehow accidentally informed of this, even though it's a secret that not even the ultraviolets are supposed to know. Now they have to deal with it. Either stop it (Humanists, Romantics, Phreaks), take down the computer first (PURGE, Death Leopard), help it along (Servants of Cthulhu), find a way to survive and re-insinuate themselves into the rebuilt world (Psion, Illuminati), or Kool-Aid time (FCCCP)

EDIT: Or escape outside (Sierria Club)

 

[Bohandas]

Necrofamicom - The minions of Nyarlathotep attempt to enter our world via a haunted videogame console called the "Necrofamicom"

Flamingorilla - Encounter with a beast that is half-flamingo and half-gorilla

 

[Bohandas]

Zombie Pyramid Scheme - There's a certain patch of land or magical location that turns dead bodies brought there undead, Pet Sematary style, but the undead created by this land are compelled to bring more bodies there to create more undead

Seasonal Zombie Virus - Toon. The 24-hour seasonal zombie virus is going around again (did I suggest this before?)

 

[Bohandas]

The Necromancer's Field - There's a place like the burial ground from Pet Sematary which brings dead things imperfectly back to life. The existence of this place becomes known to a curious and scientifically minded person who attempts to study its properties. This ultimately turns into obsession and a series of Herbert West style anatomy murders to obtain fresh corpses

 

[Bohandas]

The 27 Club - The PCs are the bodyguards of a 27 year old celebrity/musician and must protect them from Final Destination-type mishaps, crazed killers, and/or devils looking to collect on a faustian deal
