I just want to say that I had the best time with a group of four gamers who wanted me to run Omega World for them. I spent about two weeks working on an adventutre, showed up on Sunday and started to play.
First off I was very surprised by the character they choose/made up!
We had a mutated skunk named Pepe le Fume, ( the player choose this because he had the distinctive odor mutation) he could also go etherial (sp) and had the ability to heal and had the wonderful defect...poor duel brain;
a mutated cockroach, named Atta, with acid bite and spit abilities (nuff said),
a mutated armidillo, named Snapper, with large pincers (no hands mind you, boy did this add to the fun!) and the defect mutation frenzy (and yes he did end up attacking the party of a few occasions) and ...
a mutated human, named Helix, who could not fire a weapon to save his life (I forget the defect he had but it gave him big time negatives of using weapons), he could however drain the life out of a "victim" with a simple touch! Very fun!
Anyway...let the story begin.
The party set out to explore a tunnel that their community had found located across a "river of the ancients", aka a storm drain. Of course the only way over, was to cross an old iron bridge, which had almost nothing left of it. They could not cross the "river" as it was covered in 4 feet of corrosive slime which also shot 30 feet into the air every 4-5 minutes.
While the Atta was climbing across the remains of the bridge with his fantastic climbing ability...shoots rang out. On the other side of the "river of slime" were two hoops (mutated rabbits for you non-GWers) shooting with there muskets at the party. Their first fight!
Atta went for cover the best he could and continued to cross the remains of the bridge while the other began shooting a cross the "river".
Of course Helix, who could not shoot to save his life, had fired about 10 balls from his musket before the fight was over and did not hit a thing. Helix was also trying to get as far away as possible from Snapper, because Snapper had to roll for his frenzy every round and the closest target was Helix.
Snapper, attempted to use his crossbow that he had attached to one of his claws and did not hit anything either, realizing he was wasting ammo he began to climb across the bridge. Slowly I might add.
Meanwhile, Le Fume had went etherial and began to "float" of the river of slime.
Eventually, Le Fume charged the hoops attacking one with his club (Louisville slugger) and the Atta attacked the other with his acidic bite. Quickly they dispatached the hoops and their treasure was theirs...
..including the hoops necklesses, one with a head of a smiling bunny rabbit doll and the other with a "golden' looking bunny head silhoutette. (I got this idea from one of the party members, too good not to use!)
Next time the the Unknown Tunnel....if your interested!
