In this investigator’s opinion, COL Wade’s motive for launching OPERATION OBSIDIAN was his obsessive need for revenge. This investigator now believes that COL Wade was more deeply affected by his previous experience at Angka Watt temple complex ruins during OPERATION GLASS SLIPPER than his post-mission psychological examination revealed. OPERATION GLASS SLIPPER was successful, insomuch as the entity known as the Black Buddha was detached from this dimensional reference, but it was not killed. CAPT Wade’s responses to Dr. Roth indicated he believed that the entity would have been eliminated if the team had access to sufficient firepower. It is this investigator’s belief that OPERATION OBSIDIAN was COL Wade’s attempt to test that theory. Unfortunately, Wade’s methods were…unsound.

This scenario is based on notes from Adam Scott Glancy of Pagan Publishing.

The Kingdom of Oz is in peril! The Wizard and Dorothy have long since abandoned it and a new ruler is needed before it falls apart. But there’s only one person capable of uniting the kingdom…the Wicked Witch of the West. The players must brew her back to life with a magic ritual and figure out how to change her so she’s a bit more suitable as a ruler. In order to do this, the players must go on a quest and figure out what makes a worthy ruler. Find out what they wind up doing in this one shot I ran at Dragoncon 2009.

Don’t forget to contribute to the RPPR Codex of War Ransom! No New World episodes will be released until the ransom is met but if you contribute at least $20, you will get early access to them.

google Beksiński The town of Arcadia has a unique boogeyman, the Signal. Since 1947, a weird voice can be heard only at a certain house, currently owned by Winslow. The voice claims to be an alien and seems almost omniscient. It is written off as a trick, a type of stage magic. A few months ago, one teenager killed two of his friends then himself in Arcadia. It was officially blamed on drugs. However, the teens had recently visited the House and listened to the Signal. This attracted the attention of the Paranormal Exploration Society, a group of amateur ghost hunters. What is the truth behind the signal? Find out in the Arcadia Signal!
