RPG a Day 2024: Day 20

 RPG a Day 2024, day 20: Amazing Adventure


There are a great many amazing adventures out there, and many of them are home-made GM written. For todays prompt, I will stick to published adventures, as through these, we build a community of shared experience.

If, however, I have to pick one adventure, then I'll go with Dissociation. Dissociation is a scenario written by Matthew Sanderson, and is published in the Fears Sharp Little Needles book of scenarios, published by Stygian Fox. I won't spoiler it, but I have run this scenario twice, and had a great time both times. This is a modern day Call of Cthulhu scenario, with a classic Lovecraftian monster, but the title of the scenario works for both the investigators and the players. There are a few twists and turns, and a great end point. I love it.


However, if you want to know more, a quick search on Youtube should hit you up with a couple of spoiler filled reviews.

First off, I had a list of books to buy at the Chaosium stand (although I did spend my Cult of Chaos credit, and won one of these through the Extra Life Charity event prize draw). I was able to get the following: Pulp Cthulhu Two Headed Serpent Grand Grimoire of Cthulhu Mythos Magic Doors To Darkness Dead Light Another tip to the vendors hall led me to find a couple of second hand book stores, who had all the kinds of books you'd want to find at a Con like this, including: H P Lovecraft : The Shadow over Innsmouth and other Stories of Horror, as well as a copy of August Derleth's: The Reminiscences of Solar Pons. The Necronomicon Press stand was there, where I hooked up with a copy of TED Klein's: The

Google Watership Down , and you get reviews of both the book by Richard Adams, and the film and animated series based upon it. A story of rabbits. It's slightly more than that, it is a story about anthropomorphised rabbits, and their mythic journey to a new home. A story of liberation and self-determination that strikes a chord with many diverse readers. Google Watership   Down   Trauma , and you'll get another story. My story. Children who were taken to the cinema to watch a cartoon about bunnies (rated U for universal), who were subjected to a tale of death and horror. Rabbits are choked by snares, get into bloody battles, and are snatched by predators. This film was released in cinemas when I was 3, so that was the age I watched it. It is one of my earliest memories. It scarred me. That it was partly based on the author's experience with Operation Market Garden gives us an idea of what we're working with here. Why am I talking about this on a gaming blog? Well, due
