Steampunk??

Steampunk idea #101

Aaron described a world where electricity never developed because generating it let the "bad things" in.  Be they cthulhu or demons or whatever, so steam was the main mojo everywhere.  Very cool idea.

Game scenario idea
Game : SotC
Genre : Steampunk, twinged with horror
Format :3 linked scenarios, each suitable for con play alone, but run better in sequence.

Main antagonist : an evil version to Thomas Edison (1847-1931) inventor (specifically in this case looking at DC Current, that lets the bad things in).  Insane, tainted by evil, overly powerful.  Throw in something evil about either sound or video recording.  Remember that Edison was a telegraph operator, and they used "spark generators? to transmit (early infection?)




Main NPCs - crazy Nikola Tesla (1856-1943) with his AC that may just save the world for real.



Needed :

Persistent villainous organization (at least one)
Overall plot for each episode, with meta-plot traveling through all 3.

  1. Ah, here's the comment box. This is where I should have posted the notes I just created a new blog post for, etc.

    All right, let's go back to the original concept with our respective mad scientists still working in their respective labs on similar but different projects.
