Before we begin, I’d like to point some things out. First, this is based off of a prewritten Call of Cthulhu Campaign. Although I will certainly be doing lots of writing for this quest, the basic premise is not mine. All underlined material is taken directly from the book. Because this is a...

Welcome to 50 Fathoms Quest Edition! I was inspired by @Maugan Ra and their Warhammer Fantasy Enemy Within Quest. 50 Fathoms is an RPG setting written (not by me) for the Savage Worlds RPG. I've always had trouble deciding on good mechanics for my quests, so for my latest attempt, I figured I...

Rain pours down outside a packed tavern, the din and drench muted by thatched roof and wooden walls underlaid by stone. The crackle of a fireplace and a calm hum of people break through the rest as dozens drink frothy Imperial beer. Woodsmoke and smiles fill the air. All except you are smiling...

Welcome one and all, to Fifth World Problems!
This is technically a re-write of an (extremely bad, don't read it) quest I ran several years ago, but honestly, I've reworked almost everything about it to the point they have virtually nothing in common.
I've been going over it for a week at this...
Hello, and welcome to a quest I've had on my mind for a long time. I've been away from the quest scene for far too long (due to personal/family issues), and it's time I remedied that. I'll be focusing on this as well as my Pokémon quest for quite a while. Besides, I was starting to get...
1. Sundered
A lone traveler walks through a tundra that doesn't seem to end. What exists won't matter in this place, but what is absent is perhaps too apparent - for there is not a sign of life or its remnant within the traveler's vicinity. Nothing stands or opens up from the snow, nothing...
It was strange. The world slowing to a crawl in dangerous situations was something you often see in movies but never actually expect to experience in real life. But here I was, watching the tumbling semi-truck bouncing after being bodily hurled aside by the draconic cape that was currently...
