[HoE] Re: the boise horror and other stuff
Hi,
I've been lurking for a while now, and finally decided to throw my two cents
in.
There are a couple things I just got to share w/ marshals only. So........
Obligatory spoiler space
Simon & the Boise Horror: I think Simon is Harrowed. The clues are all
there. When the town he was in was attacked he escaped death by "pretending
to be dead." Huh. Easiest way to pretend yer dead is to be dead. Ronan
only appears to Simon. Ronan was harrowed. Hmmm.. I also think the Boise
Horror is Simon when the manitou is in control. This is why no one can find
it. It can get into well locked houses without a struggle. "Oh open the
door, it's Simon with important news!"
They Live & the Glasses of Doom, (or whatever we we're calling them nifty
sunglasses.) Here's my adventure plot inspired by the movie "They Live".
Starts in Junktown, posse iis approached by a frantic, but oh so sincere
nutjob, (We'll call him Clark), about these big space-age looking sunglasses
that let him see..."Them....Them! Over there! Aagh he's coming this
way....Gotta go..." Guy, (who may or may not look like Roddy Piper,) runs
away. Clark is killed later by a Lawdog after Clark guns down two innocent
(?) people. The posse is nearby and some how end up with the glasses. The
glasses reveal some of the folks as horrible undead monster masquarading as
normal folks. When a posse member puts them on, every 15th person or so is
an undead monster. Here's the twist. The glasses are made by a Tainted
Junker who is a servitor of Death, (or War? Still hashing it out.) The
people who appear as undead are just normal folk. The glasses are programmed
with random generator that locks in every 15th image or so with an image of
an undead. The viewer eventually goes nuts and kills some innocent people.
Reckoners very happy. Much fear. Yum. Naturally, the posse can figure it
all out and stop The Tainted's nefarious plan. Still working out the fine
points, but that's the outline. Feel free to use it yourself and plug all
the gaping plot-holes. (Just like a real Pinnacle adventure! Sorry,
couldn't resist.)
