Magic is fading as tech grows, but some wylde intrudes, & you must stop it. Few can use magic, you must find & train replacements. The apprentice is dead. Cellphone in one hand, magic in the other.
Description:
In a world where creatures of the night prowl and gloom creeps into the corners of life and mind, the normal human is prey. For there are other worlds that impinge on our light and safety. It is only by the will and fight of a few brave, worthy souls that 'normal' is an option at all. Modern protectors exist in both places, with car keys, flashlights, and cell phones in one hand when those work, but with swords and wands in the other for the times and places they do not. These people fight the long battle while finding, educating, and training their own replacements, for who else will if they do not? These modern knights are needed most in the broken edges of the landscape, where the cell towers don't reach, where cops shouldn't go, only steel and aspen and knowledge of the weird can prevail. Modern-day in a world of capes, battling mystical threats. Today, the apprentice is dead.

In a time before cell phones and the Internet, six residents of a small, Midwestern town find themselves psychically linked. Focus on relationships and story, not mechanics. RP stressed.
Description:
In a time before cell phones and the Internet, a resident from a small midwestern town might believe their life was isolated from the larger problems of the world. In 1968, residents of Jaeger, IL discover otherwise. A game about relationships amidst supernatural crisis inspired by Stranger Things and its cousins. Role playing stressed. Focus on story not mechanics. Just before Thanksgiving, a malevolent alien presence attempted to rip its way into our world. A small group of psychically connected townsfolk stopped the breach, but at high cost. As our residents mourn their losses and prepare for the winter holidays, unwanted attention descends on the town even as they connect with new minds in a distant, war-torn rainforest.
Sometimes being a hero brings unexpected challenges. The Sentinels have been contacted by the Military to render aid with an “unfortunate incident.” Will our Heroes plunge into the unknown?

Description:
In a time before cell phones and the Internet, a resident from a small midwestern town might believe their life was isolated from the larger problems of the world. In 1968, six residents of one small town will discover otherwise. A game about relationships in the midst of supernatural crisis inspired by Stranger Things and its cousins. Focus on story not mechanics. Thanksgiving-a time for turkey and stuffing with cranberry sauce, football, and reviving old family arguments. Six normal individuals' lives were changed just months before by a freak psychic phenomenon that empathically bound them together. Something is coming, something related to their connection, and they may not have much time. This is not a game of superheroes, but of ordinary people whose individual lives have been changed, but not ended, by the psychic event that brought them together.
A team of superheroes (provided by you, the players) work together. Use the Standard Superhero (350 points in 5E, 400 in 6E/Champions Complete) guidelines, & bring TWO (2) completed characters.
