King of the Mountain Update

Recommended Posts

Well, I have good news for folks.

 

King of the Mountain is done. This absolute beast of an adventure weighs in at 148 typed, single spaced pages. It has seventeen character sheets, seven maps, some of which have multiple levels, and tons of object defense tables. This adventure also includes a chart for random apartment occupancy (kind of useful in a game where people take knockback), and tons of NPC writeups, plot seeds, and options.

 

Maps include

 

Another suburban home

 

A full blown casino hotel

 

A concert hall (This is a plug-in map. It's great by itself, but it's also shaped so that it fits into the Convention Center from Pretty Hate Machines if you bought that.)

 

A New Orleans bayou estate

 

Graceland's front lawn (With evil extras)

 

A secret cult lair

 

Villains include:

 

Yo-yo! That's right, Champions has a little Elvis history of it's own. Mark Arsenault, fortunately, has my back on this one. This obscure villain from the "Throwing Stars and Bars" adventure got a raw deal in every possible sense of the word. For one thing, he has a background now. Trust me. You'll love this.

 

Generic Demons, easily stuffable into any Champions World

 

A voodoo priestess (This one's a little off the beaten path)

 

An evil occult supervillain team.

 

Mr. Nightfall, the Master of Darkness

Skinwalker, the Native American Shaman of Evil

Darkblood, A demon who inhabits bodies and lives in their blood

Moonslayer, the Werewolf Martial Artist (And yes, I've had this guy since the early 90's, before Black Fang was a glimmer in Mr. Long's eye.)

Eidolon, The Ectoplasmic Controller: Yes, this is an "EC" joke. No, it doesn't mean he's ineffective.

Confluence: Energy Projector/Absorber. Why mess around? She projects Chthuhu-like mental energy from beyond the stars! Take THAT!

 

The evil master villain behind it all. You're gonna love this guy. I promise.

 

Oh. And Elvis. We sheeted him, too...

That is up to Dave and Jason. I just write the darned things and send Dave all my production materials. Then I collapse in a heap for a couple of days and start the next one.

 

Did WE give you permission to collapse in a heap? NO!!! (whip-crack!) Back to work, knave! (whip-crack!)

 

Um, I mean, good work, Mike.

Ow, hey, that stings! I mean, thanks, Ray! :P)

 

Actually, my collapse lasted no time. I've already started Imaginary Friends, and I'm working on a couple of novels even as I type this message.

 

After art and maps, the whole thing should weigh in at 148+17+15, or about 180 total pages. It's big.
