[Game] Songs as Adventures

[Angelsboi]

ok well i had this idea from listening to a song.

I will post a simple plot and then post what song i got the inspiration from. I will then post a song and someone else will post a plot and they post a song, someone else will post a plot for that song and a song for someone else to do.

Ill start it:

A house is broken into and kills a young woman. The woman was a notable call girl and the killer is a obsessed bard. The PCs have to find the killer.

Inspiration: Smooth Criminal

Next Song: November Rain

 

[emergent]

This is fun and a great idea, even if I did have to look up the lyrics on the internet .

Song: November Rain

Plot: The party learns an important NPC they are aquainted with once loved and lost. Said NPC thinks former lover is dead, but party stumbled across clues to her whereabouts long ago during an adventure. (For a more interesting version, make NPC a royal who is now married for reasons of state and former lover a commoner, or vice versa).

Song: Ripple (The Greatful Dead)

 

[Angelsboi]

Song: Ripple

A Fatespinner is in serious trouble and the PCs have to help. It seems the Fatespinner (who is mute) has struck one too many bargains with Destiny. It seems that now Death is coming after her.

Next Song: Jeremy (Pearl Jam)

 

[Wippit Guud]

Song: Jeremy

The PC must investigate a rash of young suicides in a small town, each suicide took place in a crowded area with several witnesses on hand.

Next Song: One by Metallica

 

[Sejs]

Song: One by Metallica:

The PCs require information relevant to their quest, and the only person said to have it is a soldier from the recent war. The problem? He was terribly injured in battle, his wounds leaving him blind, mute, deaf, limbless and barely clinging to life... nearly catatonic. The PCs must find some way to communicate with him, and get the information they require. In exchange there's only one thing the injured man wants - release from his continuing torturous existance.


Next Song: The Man Who Sold the World by David Bowie

 

[Angelsboi]

The Man Who Sold the World

The PCs come in contact with a odd object in a wizards tower (a wizard who had been missing for quite some time). Its a globe of their world but is a puzzle. It moves as a sphere, rhomboid, square, etc. When they are finished playing with it, they realized they have been plane shifted into a small personal plane. The PCs have to figure out how to get back home and how this plane is connected to the missing wizard.

Next Song: Forever Young (Alphaville)

 

[Starman]

Forever Young - Alphaville

Utopia is created in a nation where there is no fighting or war and people get to live forever. However, people have no actual freedom. Everything is decided for them, what their career is, who they marry, where they go. The PC's realize that they are merely pawns and must find out who is behind it and how to stop them. They must also figure out how to convince the populace that this is for the best because they are all happy and content.

Next song:Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen

Starman

 

[Henry]

Bohemian Rhapsody

A young man has been wanted for the vicious murder of an innocent in a robbery - the only problem is, the death is accidental, the murderer is not even the age of majority yet, a young child, practically, and the PC's have to decide whether to intercede on his behalf, or turn him in to proper justice.

Next: (easy one) Two Princes by the Spin Doctors

 

[Angelsboi]

Two Princes

The most charismatic PC has been beseiged upon by two lovely females (or males) and these two women (or men) start doing what they can to vie for the PCs attention. However, things suddenly take a turn for the worst when they start using people around them and people start getting hurt, all to gain the attention and affectionof this PC.

Next song: Man On The Moon - REM

 

[Kerrwyn]

Ah, got beaten to it.
