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. Written by Mikko Kallio

Your crew might be a strange group—and you can’t say that you trust them completely—but at a moment’s notice they’re ready to sail through monster-infested waters or scale a corrupt noble’s castle walls. Pirates, through and through. Each of them is ready for anything.
The Sea is vast and its depths hold many secrets. And you’ve got secrets of your own! Perhaps you are an escaped noble, fleeing from the burden of responsibilities. Or maybe a mechanical construct, given life by a cruel master. Either way, it’s fair to say that the night-black void orb you acquired at the last port may have an effect on your health. Rapscallion is a tabletop roleplaying game in which you play a rambunctious crew of pirates, testing their luck against the unpredictable winds of Fate.

Dungeon World is very easy to do homebrew Playbooks, but we'll stick with the basics and what I already know is balanced. We'll do a 30-minute primer to explain the rules, roll some math rocks to get the feel for them, then go around the table to build out the environment(s), scenery, points of interest, and possible dangers. https://www.dungeonworldsrd.com/ is a good reference for all of the basic rules of Dungeon World, but don't forget you can get MOST of the game primers from the official site https://dungeon-world.com/

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.
Event Name: Savage Rifts: Carnival of Cadavers Event Type: A Savage Worlds Saga RPG System: Savage Worlds Adventure Edition Experience Required? Helpful, but not required. The event is designed to help new players learn the system. Characters Required? Pre-made characters provided. 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.
Join us to exterminate any evil found in the area

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.
