Message: <blockquote data-quote="Frosty" data-source="post: 231852" data-attributes="member: 5098">I have this idea that I might use sometime. I like CofC but I think the monsters are silly. I'm not in the least impressed by members of an elder race toting electro-guns and or a sleeping squid with a bad morning temper. I realised that for my CofC-game I needed to come up with something freakier, in my humble opinion of course. This is what I came up with. (Don't tell anyone, okay?)One of the largest corporations in the world is not entirely what it appears to be. On the outside the company sells diapers, food or something else seemingly innocent. (Akin to Procter and Gamble or that Dutch company I keeping forgetting the name of?) The characters have a reason to be connected to the company. Perhaps one is working in the reception and another is a sales-rep.The characters learn piece by piece that there is something utterly wrong with the upper management. Perhaps the chairman of the board is unable to tie his own shoe-laces or the CEO turns out to be recruited from Type-Casting Inc. and is in fact a high priced actor. Moreover the characters find out that different chemicals are being added to the food products spread world wide. Each chemical is innocent in itself but the combination of drugs suggests something else. The chemicals enhance brain growth among other things. The drugs don't necessarily make people brighter, they simply makes their brains bigger (or tastier, whatever suits your style). It could of course trigger ESP-like abilities in subjects if it suits the campaign.The whole corporation is of course secretly under the control of mind-flayers! There are but a few on earth and they feed upon the population. The mind-flayers come from a distant planet. On that planet the mind-flayers are fighting a civil war of holocaust proportions. More and more of them are looking for a place to flee and the mfs already on earth are finding it increasingly difficult to keep their "gold-mine" secret from the rest of them.The characters investigate and will sooner or later find out the horrible truth. And when they do they realise that the earth mfs are humanity's last hope. The enemy of my enemy...</blockquote>
