[DL] Senario ideal (longish)

[Brom Clancy <spleen23@webtrolls.com>]

In the town of Genisis one Finnigan Tweed, Wannabe 
Mad sciencetist rebuilds a device created by one 
Franklin P Arcwright. Arcwight's device was supposed 
to create a image in light and ghostrock smoke of 
whatever the operator of the device was thinking of.
Arcwright's home was destroyed on the night of the 
devices testing, but tweed did not let this this 
bother him. Tweed rebuilt the device and tested it.
After hours of trying readying the device and more 
hours of trying to concentrate his thoughts to make 
it work, Tweed fell into a deep sleep, with the 
machine still running.

Unknown to Tweed he posseses a rare Arcane background 
call The Null, he is totally unable to connect with 
the hunting ground, and is thus unable to become a 
mad scientist or any sort of arcane of anysort. HE is 
also immune to being directelly affected by any spell.
The reason he was unable to make the machine work is 
that the machine channeled gremlins into physical 
form shaped by the thoughts of the mad scientist  
attempting to operate the machine, or any other 
arcane in the area.
 
3 buildings down, one Albert Collins, Huckster, has 
been researching the secret names of manitou who can 
boost specific or general hexes if called apon. As 
Collins falls asleep vision of the images and names 
of a score of manitou dance in his head.

And in a barn 3 doors down the manitou start to come 
though.

The ideal here is that you take the Manitou described 
in the article A cut above the Rest (availible on all 
the finer deadland fan sites) and give them physical 
form, the real world versions can be gremlins in the 
form of the manitous ( but tougher than a gremlin in 
most cases)who belive that they are the manitou, the 
real world version can be the real manitou taken on 
real forms, or they can be suiside kings who are 
taken on the form of the manitou for the porpose of 
chaseing down a huckster and killing them to free 
them selves, or a mixture of all three.

An alternative to this is that instead of takeing on 
physical forms the manitou instead posses the 
sleeping bodies of the townfolk of Genisis, and can 
at will create a illusion of thier manitou form in 
place of the real person, or walk around in the real 
persons body unseen while they cause mischeif and 
such.
The appeal of this is that the players have to figure 
out how to get the manitou to leave the bodies rather 
then just hunt em' down and blast them.
