Alas for the Awful Sea

RPGs ::

Rated PG-13 :: This Alas for the Awful Sea playtest adventure is a one-shot game about whaling and human motivations. The players are engaged in a quest to investigate of a retired whaler and the unusual beast that he has been hunting. Alas for the Awful Sea explores the bitter dilemmas facing starving towns torn apart by crime and loss. To tell this story, it delves into the fantastical, weaving in folktale elements that mirror the beliefs and struggles of the town. Based on the rich myth of the Scottish Hebrides, this folklore springs forth from the same desolate coastal landscapes that dominate the atmosphere of the game.

Free Pre-Registration
If you can pre-reg for this game that would be perfect as I would like to create a Slack group or at least be able to email you some PDFs with game background and some of the mechanics of the game so you can do a little prep before the game. We could also have character selection completed as well as we can get right into the game.
