shadowlightRan a game at the local Starbucks temple (two players couldn't make it, of a possible maximum of four. The other three of us were merely late. Much conversation, but it was informative. (Note to self: stop ordering the Green Tea Chai Latte. It's foamy and green, which is fabulous, but it tastes like grass and for Starbucks prices, you deserve better.)
we got a late start, so I scrubbed the plan for an M&M game based on an old Gurps Supers module, and instead, I ran a Toon game about an outbreak of teenage zombies* (mostly surfers, but caused by zombie cheerleaders infected by the 'diet pills' they got from a CIA operative in a trenchcoat in an alley in the seedy part of town. The PCs were scientists. They solved the problem by using a mind-enhancing ray to change the mindless zombies into highly intellectual zombies. *cameos by Bill & Ted, Jay & Silent Bob, the teen supervillains from the Gurps module, and the zombie cheerleaders for the 'Bulldogs' (here, archrivals of the 'Black&White Cats' team) who appeared at least twice in RC's B-Movie games. ) Kid (19 year old?) walked up to us to ask if we were playing D&D. He wanted players for his D&D 4 game. Hard to find other gamers when you're that age. Maybe I should've handed him a character and some dice, told him to sit down and play. Maybe. We did give him plenty of free advice, though.
