Things from the Flood

GM: David V.

5 Players



Pick through abandoned machinery, failing super technology, and stray robots as teenagers of the 1990s that never were in Things from the Flood. Solve a mystery that has caused trouble in your town, while also dealing with the stress and dramas of everyday life. Your parents are fighting again, you got fired from your part time job, and your History paper is due tomorrow, and that was all before robotic dreams started infiltrating your minds, strange mutations started cropping up among your classmates, or a rogue magnetic airship is barreling towards the football stadium. It'll be up to you and your friends to solve these troubles and dig deeper into the decaying technology of the world.



Things from the Flood is the standalone sequel to the 2017 award winning RPG Tales from the Loop. Rules will be taught, and characters will be made at the table. 5 players.

Shadowrun Anarchy

Shadowrun. The Sixth World.

It’s where man meets magic and machine.



Dive into a cyberpunk dystopia and become a shadowrunner, a deniable asset who does the jobs no one else can—or will—do. It’s not an easy life, but it beats selling your soul to the megacorps.

Based upon the rules-light and easy-to-learn Cue System, Shadowrun: Anarchy is a narrative-focused game experience that has everything you need to quickly grab some gear, load up on spells, and get to throwing the dice.

Forgotten Relics – D&D 5E

GM: Tom C.

People are always going missing in the city of towers, and no one seems to ever bat an eye. After all a city as large as Sharn is sure to have cracks for those less fortunate to fall into. This time though a member of an important Dragonmark house has not been seen in days and the house has not reported it to the Sharn Watch. Something is starting to boil up from the under belly and it is making people nervous. You have now been hired by Sergeant Germaine Vilroy to investigate and keep things quiet.
