New Mystery: Burning Rubber!

New Mystery: Burning Rubber!

New Mystery: Burning Rubber! The Hunters are hurt, exhausted, and fleeing from both the police and an Occult Organization in a stolen vehicle. As they try to put the actions of their previous Mystery in the rear-view mirror, they begin to notice strange occurrences.

I wanted to create a road-trip style mini-Mystery to trial on Discord in-between our IRL sessions. Please feel free to use/adapt/share, and if you have any suggestions please let me know!.

  1. Jared Flood Thanks very much, I’m having a blast running it! I’ve added a few things too that might help: A) added a creature stowaway hiding under the seats early, they befriended it so I’m using it as a potential victim B) added clearer investigation results:

    1. Jamming your hand into the inconvenient space between the front seat and the centre console you find 20$ cash and a credit card with the name Doug Wilkerson.

    2. Printouts and complex schematics appear to be working documents for one or more ongoing projects referencing something called a Rift Engine. At a glance it seems to have something to do with hypergeometry and parallel dimensions.

    3. Loose collection of napkins and sticky notes scrawled with handwriting, seem like increasingly panicked attempts to work out some kind of un-binding.

    4. A leather-bound tome, you easily thumb back to the page with the creature. It is unmistakably the one that attacked you.

  2. I also added more to the “Other Place” description: The rifts leak the hunters into the Other Place. The Other Place is a parallel world where the Occult Organization succeeded in piercing the veil between reality and the “Occult” (i.e., Dreamlands, Monster world, etc.) has been fully breached. In this world, Monstrous creatures, flora and fauna “co-habitate” with humanity. Since the Occult dimension is technically two steps away, as the hunters transition to The Other Place, at first their world looks a lot like our dimension with subtle, weird distinctions, but as they more fully come through they perceive the full extent of the incursion.The Other Places’ version of their Occult Organization has minions (e.g., Waitress).
