My idea for a nWoD Promethean or Changeling Game

Jun 17, 2008 13:24

So, there are rumors amongst one of my gaming groups, one that I met through Fear the Boot, that hasn't met in almost two months due to a massive run of bad luck, that the guy running the game will be finishing it shortly, and someone else could run another game.

I was originally going to run a Deadlands: Reloaded game, but since getting the nWoD core book, and then reading the .pdfs of the splat books, I've decided to run either a Promethean: The Created game, or a Changeling: The Lost game.

Obviously, since this is the World of Darkness, I'll have to have the games take place in the nWoD equivalent of Indianapolis.

But first, my main idea for the Promethean game occurred to me when I was watching the Incredible Hulk.

The group, or throng, of Promethean heroes has wandered into Indianapolis on their pilgrimage. It's very much like the old Incredible Hulk TV show, and I was even thinking of using the Lonely Man theme that plays at the end of the credits (and played a few times in the movie, too). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9x9rLGz73g0&feature=related

I mean, the music just sets the tone for the game. A group of people, wanting to be human, to be close to humanity, but knowing that eventually the Disquiet that surrounds them, it will eventually overcome, and they'll have to move on, before the place becomes a barren wasteland.

So, I'd have the group working to protect people, without people really getting to know them, wanting to get closer, but can't. The horror and the sadness that comes from such a bleak existence, while working to achieve their mortality, to become human.

The Changeling game would be a bit more straightforward, and I don't have anything really for that.

If you've got any ideas, or suggestions, please, leave a comment.
