Sky Island Roc'oi
Sky Island
Sky islands fly over the Skyland
high plains occasionally – proof of all the ancient stories told around the
fires. Two nights ago a Sky Island fell into the valley. It hit a hill and
snagged onto some trees.
A tempting target full of Ancient
wonders. Your elders are sending the bravest to explore the Sky Island and
gather artifacts for the village.

Returning with the prisoners raises everyone’s status by 1.
A huge celebration ensues. Massive party. Much food and drink. PC’s are heroes!
Did some play testing with my gaming group. Ran MA as a practice for the con. I had never run MA before, countless hours of Gamma World. Many hours of MCC and a campaign of MCC on the "Starship Warden" but never just Metamorphosis Alpha....
First time running the rules straight. I run games by the book no house rules at cons. Those seeking the old classics want to play the rules as published. (in my mind any way).
Thanks to my good friend "Beri" the Kuselitheon claimed its first victim. (even if unofficial) The night resulted in a TPK The book "House on the Hill" got them. They didn't even get inside the Round House Modular Dwelling Unit. RHMDU.
While rattling drapes and looking in windows, Beri went to circumnavigate the house. He ran afoul of the 2 young Jawed Plants. He was paralyzed and half devoured before the others found him. The others also succumb to the plants and we have a TPK!
Looking forward to running at Gary con again. If you see a guy in a Vest that looks like this....
Less than 3 months to Gary Con! Running 3 Gamma World, and for the first time ever 3 Metamorphosis Alpha.
One of my favorite things to do in an adventure is allow access ancient vending machines. I like to sneak in a small chance of healing effects on the food items, along with the chance of poison or radiated fare.
Since I suck at coming up with names, I got an AI program to make me some nonsense names for what comes from the machines. (AI is certainly a god send for me, it can do the grunt work I hate to do)
This is the beta list, the one i will use at the con has the poison/rad/healing spread out randomly. If you desire some vending madness in you Post Apocalyptic world, enjoy the following chart.
Have been designing my own ship, per Mr Ward's intention that each GM would use their name for the ship.
Deck list so far:
This is roughly modeled on the Big Dog from Non-Stop.
10 mile diameter rings, 300 foot thick with 3 decks per ring.
Stacked with a bridge and drive ring.

Ticket sales and event submissions began today.
I am planning on 6 adventures.
3 Gamma World and 3 Metamorphosis Alpha.
My events are submitted already.
Here is a list.
Gary-con 26 games.
Gamma world
Bad day gets Badder, The holy of holies was stolen from the
village. Your group is tasked with retrieving it from the raiders who took it.
Seems like a simple mission…. hope nothing goes bad….
Missory river blues, Ralz town merchant Astrea has a
shipment of goods to be delivered to Kanzaz zity. Hired as guards and river hands,
your crew must sail down the river and deliver the goods to Dent at the Kanzaz
zity port. River pirates, raiders and who knows what else may try to stop the
shipment you have been tasked to deliver.
Mines of O-Ma, The ruins of O-ma have provided various
metals for years. Mining the ruins was always risky, but suddenly it has become
downright deadly. Ralz town’s economy is strongly supported by the mines. The
town council has put out the call and you have answered. Miners won’t venture
into the ruins without armed guards. Your job, find the problem and solve it!
The mines must reopen.
Metamorphosis Alpha
Doorway to the unknown (MA) For generations your village has
taken clay from the hillside to make ceramics. Your village trades its ceramics
with many villages and tribes. Yesterday the diggers uncovered a door. The door
opens revealing a yawning portal into darkness. The village elders are sending
your group to explore, assess and bring back anything the village could use.
Omega protocol (MA) , The ship had a backup for emergencies.
Military personnel had DNA samples stored in case of disaster. In an emergency
a military force could be grown and sent to deal with any problem. …. You
awaken in the cloning pod, you know there is an emergency… but why don’t you
remember anything else? Something went horribly wrong.
Clap on clap off (MA). The Wolvers attacks have been
relentless since a new band of them arrived in the area a month ago. The
hunters and braves of the village dwindle daily, each attack more are killed. Your
village is doomed unless your group can reactivate Solanith the god of light to
defend against the Wolvers. Ancient stories tell of Solanith guiding and
protecting the village until a fateful day when a metal demon attacked the
town. Elder Gav has found a way to restore the ancient protector. Your team
must find the needed parts and restore the guardian.
Adventures are suitable for beginners and advanced players.
Pregens will be available.
