[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 5221823, member: 19675"] What a coinkydink! The last campaign[B] i[/B] ran, the PCs were aboard a ship that was attacked by anthro tiger raiders from another Prime Material plane. That party stormed on board to fend off the raiders...and almost succeeded, actually. They were rolling die that almost seemed loaded, but they eventually succumbed to superior numbers and physical power. They were awakened on a tropical isle in the raider's dimension, where they were informed that, due to their demonstration of extreme bravery and combat prowess, they had earned the right to be[I] hunted[/I], rather than slaughtered like livestock. Then they were told their gear had been scattered about the island and they were set free- NAKED- and told to run for it. Cue Kodo's theme to The Hunted... *** OK...assuming that you're not using anthro tigers, you can still use this[I] exact [/I]plotline by having a ship of mad pirates- essentially a crew driven mad and becoming your world's equivalents of Firefly's Reavers- be the ship in question. Other options: [LIST=1] [*]As above, but they get used as slave labor in a pirate encampment. This gets you the "Slave Lords" plotline [*]As above, but they get sold to a mining operation. [*]In trying to escape the pirates, the ship runs aground (as might the pirates as well, in their zeal). From there, use plotline of Jules Verne's Mysterious Island and/or HG Wells' Island of Dr. Moreau. [*]Instead of either classic book, take a more voodoo approach to the inhabitants of the island, and borrow the plot of[URL="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076704/"] Shock Waves[/URL]- except instead of Nazi zombies, you just have a zombies. Perhaps they're the remnants of zombies raised by 2 rival Voudoun priests who managed to kill each other off...but their undead servants remained behind. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
