New gaming?

[thessalian]

Okay, while I'm loving Mage, I'm kind of jonesing to do ... I dunno, something else. So I'm thinking, maybe I should see if I can get a game together for the other Sunday. You know, something a bit less ambitious than Mage has turned out to be, and can be shunted aside if anyone else wants to run something brief with no long-term commitment and no stress if they lose inspiration and tank out plot-wise.

I suppose this is addressed particularly to dodgyhoodoo, weaselbitch, nadriel, lokean and guido_was_taken, but is of course not limited to those five; this is addressed to any of my friends in the area and interested in gaming. If you are keen, take a minute, leave a comment, and answer the following questions:

1) Are you free on the Sundays alternate to the Mage Sundays (for the uninitiated, the alternation for non-Mage Sundays goes 5th Feb, 19th Feb, 5 March, 19 March, 2 April etc)

2) If so, are you keen to participate?

3) If the answer to the above two questions is yes, any preferences to what's run? I've personally got a yen to run old Vampire, Werewolf either old or new, Awakening, picking up the old BESM campaign or possibly trying Shadowrun. Kult is an option only if dodgyhoodoo doesn't mind me reading the books.

Answers on a comments field, or whenever you next see me.

You can't have been reading the Mage commentary I've been making of late if you think I don't want (or at least, can't cope with) creative destruction. So far, these guys have been involved in the blowing up of a church, a nest of Malkavians, several Technocracy buildings, the Savoy, that horrible shopping complex in Hatfield, bits of UMIST and a node. Correction: THEIR node.

And a vote for Werewolf at last. I like Werewolf.

That doesn't sound like creative destruction so much as semi-random destruction... (Although I thoroughly approve of blowing up the shopping complex...)

Correction: THEIR node.

And that sounds like carelessness.

The character just took a lurch Al-Ghulwards...

The church was creative. It was being used by Infernalists at the time, and the group Hermetic called down the lightning with an audience of Sleepers in attendance, first stating that it was as vulgar as fuck but he didn't care, and then stating that since no one saw him do it, they probably thought it was God's wrath so it was technically coincidental anyway.

Their node? That was due to the group Euthie throwing raw Entropy at Son of Ether equipment that happened to be powered by, and thus plugged into, the node. Well, the nuker was, at least. The giant mechanical arms were equal part node-powered and fusion. The Euthie threw raw Entropy at both the nuker and the mechanical arms. This channeled raw Entropy into the node. Twice. House went boom. Node went boom. Three NPCs and a PC who botched a "don't die" roll went boom. It was a mess.

Cute! :-)

To do that once is carelessness. To do it twice... (And "nuker"? Son of Ether?)

If you're coming in on the other Sunday games, I'm sure you'll hear all about the nuker (microwave oven) and the technomancer who originally built it from the person who plays the Euthanatos ... and everyone else. The house on the node was once a Cult of Ecstacy chantry, if that tells you anything.
