TAVERN HALLOWEEN PARTY: TTRPG SESSIONS

HALLOWEEN PARTY ONE-SHOTS

The veil grows thin. Apparitions stir within the forgotten depths of our multiversal tavern. Are you prepared to confront your fears via the medium of partying?

Come join us on Halloween for a selection of horrifying drop-in TTRPG games, themed food and drinks (the theme is blood) and a COSTUME CONTEST with prizes up for grabs.

We'll be staying open up until midnight, with music in the Guild Hall, and at least one third of a skeleton somewhere (there is always the potential for more, but managing expectations is important).

We have several tales for you to uncover below in Archives. Please take a note of the session start-time when booking your ticket, as we have multiple slots throughout the night!

The Blood Ball (House GM: Gilli)

PRE-GENS PROVIDED?: Yes, and feel free to go absolutely insane with them.

DECOMPRESSION SICKNESS - SESSION ONE (House GM: JAMIE)

SESSION TIME: Session One (6:30 - 8:30) / Session Two (8:45 - 10:45)

SESSION SYSTEM: Mothership

THE STORY: You are desperate interstellar scavengers down on your luck and short of oxygen credits. You will dive deep into a massive abandoned android factory controlled by a rogue AI, in search of a payday. Will you make it out with your minds and bodies intact?

The two sessions will run sequentially: Session 1 will see the team enter The Deep and (hopefully) locate the artifact. Session 2 will see the new players pick up the characters made in Session 1 and try to make it out alive, evading the station’s defences.

Mothership is an award-winning sci-fi horror game set in a low-tech dystopian future. It uses a d100 roll-under system that is quick to pick up. No prior knowledge of the system is needed, just a willingness to be scared and question what it means to be human. This session will use material from the module Gradient Descent.

PRE-GENS PROVIDED?: Session One - Pre-gens provided. Session Two - Pick up a character sheet from Session 1.

CONTENT WARNINGS: Graphic violence, body horror, emotional trauma, psychological distress, loss of player agency over their character (if things go really badly).

SESSION TIME: Session One (6:30 - 8:30) / Session Two (8:45 - 10:45)

CONTENT WARNINGS: Blood, body horror, violence.
