7th Sea is a roleplaying game by John Wick. In this one-shot, you are in a crew of Montaigne-sponsored privateers looking to exculpate your secretive patron's compatriot, Henri des Canons, by finding the treasure that his Castillean rival, Margarita del Mar, buried and showing that it was indeed this rival who stole the royal seal of the Eisen Herzog von Meineigenwaffeln.

In this world the gods are real. All of them, from every pantheon, at the same time. You were born to a mixed couple, one mortal one divine. That makes you a demigod. That means you're special. That also means you have a giant target on your back. In this PbtA game players take on the roles of a rag tag group of young half bloods, thrown together by the Fates. Will you help fulfill the prophesy or will you try to prevent it from happening? Either way you're bound to upset somebody's family. Good luck

The Maze of the Open Road has mostly been stabilized, and yet agents are still ending up at the wrong destination. While no one has been hurt, Venture-Captain Sigvard Tornkvist fears that it might be a matter of time until injury or worse results. She tasks the PCs with investigating the cause of these mishaps, and dealing with it if possible. Little do the PCs know what they've gotten themselves into, but there's a nonzero chance they'll find themselves in a dance-off before their mission is complete.

Dungeon World - The RPG system that bases the entire world on what the players want to see! This will be a super light-hearted one-shot, and is great for those who want to dip their toes into RPGs, but get hives just glancing at the rules of D&D.
Pre-generated character sheets for the basic classes will be available, along with a few curated Playbooks (the term for class types and their abilities). Dungeon World is very easy to do homebrew Playbooks, but we'll stick with the basics and what I already know is balanced.

A Pathfinder Society Scenario designed for 1st- through 4th-level characters.

Many newer agents are often sent to the Three Gates Lodge to make sure that the wildlife on the island isn’t out of control, and that the various allies that the Society made when claiming the lodge are rewarded for their continued aid. The tasks are routine, as the greatest threats were dealt with when initially setting up the lodge, and Venture-Captain Kukuha Mukai performed a ritual utilizing the ley-lines. This ritual is a form of powerful defensive magic and almost guarantees safety from all but the direst threats.

The PCs are the latest agents dispatched for this duty. Unfortunately for them, shortly after they arrive, so too does the direst of threats: a god dies, and a strange rain falls over the island, just as the PCs are being briefed. Now they have to deal with the literal fallout, as no one else is near, and no help can come for some time.

Summary: The Tomorrow Legion investigates foul play in southern Arizona where a new carnival is at the center of missing person cases.

Rifts® is a multi-genre role-playing game that captures the imagination unlike any other. Elements of magic, horror, and the supernatural co-exist with science, high technology and the ordinary. The game spans countless dimensions, making anything and everything possible. Players are truly limited only by their imaginations!

Before the Great Cataclysm, Arizona was moderately popu­lated and housed the greatest number of its residents in and around the capital of Phoenix, very near the geometric center of the state. In Rifts®, the population is much less concentrated, with small ranches, homesteads, towns and nomadic tribes scat­tered throughout the region. Arizona is very expansive and foreboding to would-be settlers. Dinosaurs, monsters, vampires and creatures from the Rifts roam the land, as do bandits, thieves, outcasts, Simvan, and adventurers.

Recently several missing persons have centered around a new carnival that has popped up at the southern edge of the area. The Tomorrow Legion is investigating along side Alba (Dawnbringers) as vampiric activity is suspected.
