Your loved ones have been kidnapped in the dead of night by strange beings & taken to an abandoned Keep nearby. The Keep is rumored to be cursed. No one goes to the Keep & comes back alive!
Description:
This adventure was written by the prolific Harley Stroh. It is meant as a funnel-style adventure. A funnel is an adventure where you control a group of level 0 common folk. Surviving the adventure won't be easy but you will have stories to tell of the brave heroism of your meager, intrepid townsfolk who faced down unspeakable evil and survived!
A sci-fi themed 0-level funnel that is an homage to Pitch Black, Alien, & Predator. What was supposed to be a challenging reality show in space becomes a frightening fight for survival.
Description:
When you signed up for the Offworlders reality show, you knew you’d be taken to a remote and wild alien world, to be filmed struggling against the elements. This was to be your fifteen minutes of fame, your opportunity to brag to all your coworkers at your megacorp desk job. What went so terribly wrong? Scattered Over Centaurus VII is a variant 0-level funnel where players need to search for survivors, gear, and shelter in order to make it off a twisted alien world. This is my tribute to some of my favorite sci-fi movies: Alien, Predator, and especially Pitch Black.

Nowhere City used to be “somewhere’ – “two-bit” for sure, but a place people liked calling home. Then the sorcerers moved in. They took over city politics, but only so they could pursue their deeper, darker agenda. The Gutter Knights rose to stop to the sorcerers - so convinced that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few that they look right past the few bystanders who get caught in the crossfire, every single day. Mercs? They’ll work for whichever side offers the most luxe payday. Yup, this used to be somewhere, but now it’s “Nowhere” - as in: “nowhere-decent-people-want-to-be.”

You will be escorting an inconspicuous radar technician named Matt to this outpost, and if you’re lucky, you may get a cameo in the upcoming video.
