Would anyone run this one-shot?

Unattainable Ideal
Okay, I know I've babbled about this before, and at great length, but it just struck me that I could do some good with this.

There's a thread roaming around out there about what to do when half your group doesn't show up. I have the perfect solution: The Kung-Fu Cthulhu one-shot!

I wrote this adventure for a local gaming tournament, based on my love for wuxia, Charlie's Angels and Cthulhu. I thought, why not combine them all? Three great tastes that taste great together! Four stylin' heroines with super-kung-fu powers ride into town only to discover that no matter how high they can kick, they can't fight insanity.

It's completely silly and wild and over-the-top and, I thought, utterly brilliant. I thought everyone would throng to my table. Visions of instant celebrity danced in my head. Beautiful women longing to touch me.

But alas, it was not to be. For reasons that only the Cosmic Jokester (not you, P-cat) (nor you, hong) can understand, NOBODY signed up for my game. Not a soul. I sat at an empty table, rejected and heartbroken.

But now restored with new life! Filled again with the vigour and excitement of fervour and faith! I'll make it available online! People will flock to my website to play it! Again with the beautiful women!

So, anyway, my question is -- if I were to make such a resource (a complete adventure, with pregenerated characters) available, would anyone use it?

Would beautiful women touch me? (no, still not you, hong)

Is it d20 CoC or something else? What levels is it?
Huh? What? Oh, rules. Um, no. Or, rather, yes.

Lessee. d20, yes. CoC monsters and spells and magic system, yes. Oriental Adventures classes, weapons, feats and skills, yes. Big honkin' monsters driving everyone batty, hordes of flesh-eating zombies, melodrama and heroic young lovers, yes.

Yes yes yes.
 


I'd play it. Or at least, I'd promise to play it unless I found something even more amazing...which seems unlikely. :D

I mean, what's not to love about ninja Cthullu Zombies?

I already have a wacky oneshot on file. Its called missing masters, and has been a hit all three times I ran it.

And, yes, beautiful women touch me. :cool:

I'd play your game in a heartbeat.

Of course, I'm the guy who wrote Like, Truly Holy Matrimony, which was a Hercules & Xena game featuring characters such as Teleoptix (he's a seer, of course). Or the infamous line: "We five are from Babylon. There is a great famine in our homeland, and we have been sent to procure food. In fact, we are our people's last, best hope for peas."

I don't know whether to keel over and die or congratulate you...

Would it help you decide if I told you that the Five were named George, Timmy, Anne, Dick and Julian? And that the only other food they had purchased was cucumber sandwiches and lashings of ginger beer?
