Yesterday’s Masks was very exciting. Halfpenny (The Transformed) took so many conditions in this one session that he almost beat another player’s record of conditions for the whole campaign! And he finally came clean to the team about having eaten the Bad Penny.

The team helped Torq (The Nova) move into the home of his new guardian, a well-traveled eccentric. Torq’s guardian wanted to explore the new Sanctuary of Panic (The Doomed), an underground chapel watched over by a spooky, benevolent skeleton.

The Sanctuary spelunking team ended up being Panic, Torq’s guardian, and Sonia (The Soldier). En route to a library of useful tomes, the girls ran afoul of territorial skeleton beasts. Sonia turned into fire and couldn’t turn back, nearly losing her human form! Panic saved her.

Meanwhile in the outside world, Halfpennny and Torq dealt with a Beachhead, a sand monster on a rampage (actually a kid who took the superpower drug Invictus). They saved the day with minimal collateral damage! But…

At the session’s end, Halfpenny was distraught to learn that the new mayor has recruited his parents as spokespeople for his Operation: Zero Impunity campaign against Invictus—and Halfpenny’s monstrous transformation has made him a cautionary-tale/poster-child of the movement!
