[QUOTE="Runesong42, post: 2273122, member: 10578"] How about... [b]You Break It, You Bought It:[/b] The PC's are hired to perform some great service to a community, only to have it go horribly awry and cause massive damage rather than any appreciable good. The mayor of the city cracks, unable to handle the stress of constant complaints, city bills, and the well-being of (let's say) 20,000 people. Just before he commits himself to the crazy bin for a much-needed vacation, he hands off the mayorship to the PC's who caused the damage. He gives them one year to make up for the losses to the city, otherwise they'll be incarcerated for life. Now the PC's are left with the responsibility of a whole community of people, and the clock is ticking... [b]Past, Present, Future:[/b] The characters are again called to service as "strange things" start appearing at random around the city. This is essentally the Shadowchasers campaign with a twist: The city happens to exist in a bizarre area of space-time that causes things from the past and future to appear or replace the present day items. In effect, the area exists in three distinct time periods/planes, and the boundary that keeps them apart is losing strength. As such, the PC's will be whisked away to past/future/alternate Earths to try and prevent the boundary form complete collapse. [/QUOTE]
