I suppose this calls for an explanation for those who never saw the first thread (and this is a complete reprint, you won't miss anything.)  In our regular D&D game, Johanna mentioned that one of her greatest fears were undead children.Actually, I remember now what happened.  We were trying to stop an ambush at the presentation of a Duke's infant son.  We in the ensuing carnage the child died.  The DM rightly ruled that toddlers didn't have enough CON to be raised, and how creepy would that be anyway?So Andy, playing our Gnome Tinkerer, planned for weeks to pleasantly surprise all of us by robotically re-animating the toddler's corpse.  The image of a stiffly shuffling child raising its little arms up to Jo and murmuring "ma-ma... so ... cold ..." creeped her out so much it became a running joke.When I presented Dark*Matter, then, she knew - I knew, we all knew -- a zombie toddler was coming with her name on it.  She just didn't know WHEN.  As a result, in every adventure, she was incredibly, incredibly paranoid when dealing with children.Just to let you know, this thread will eventually cover:-- Exit 23: the introductory mission in the Dark*MAtter sourcebook-- NEW RECRUITS:  the supplemental adventure in the sourcebook-- NIGHT OF THE CATTLE MUTILATORS: a home-brew about, well, cattle mutilations near a small Arizona town..-- GONE MISSING: another home-brew, where the Agents investigate the disappearance of three local teens in Oregon after a UFO sighting, and run into two very familiar faces ...-- and tonight's new one, DARK CANADA, EH?; the Agents are on vacation in Toronto, which is rudely interrupted by Some Who Tinker with That Which They Don't Understand.</blockquote>
