I give to you once more, per discussion with a few older players, a return of haunting horrors, the chilling creeps, The Tales of Terror. Inspired by legends and stories of old, each story will earn itself it's own arching over-line and a few subplots for those of you devils lurking in the details. But, my fellow fright seekers, it is up to you, the role players, to make the bumps in the night truly hair raising and spine tingling. So, my little lambs, are you ready for the return of the slaughter, violence, and mystifying deaths that plague South Pine?
A small un-mapped, boring town, present day, over the course of summer break to start (seasons will gradually change between arcs allowing for some chilling tales in the other times of year). The town itself has been rebuilt many many times, with legends in itself, and the two neighboring towns both half an hour's walk away to the North, and to the South, each with their respective stories, and a lot of woods. To the east there is a lake about half a mile into the woods, and to the west there is a mountain range and hoot hills, riddled with caves about a mile off.
Regardless of Age, everyone knows of the legends, the disembodied screams in the dead of the night from the forest, the house at the end of the dead end road that never stays occupied very long, that strange man that wanders into town selling damned wares to those unlucky enough to buy, the graveyard's gate keeper and his hatred of children and the dark stories lurking around him, even the local church has a story or two of it's own. Of course, stories are stories, and nothing to be afraid of, or so most say.
Generic First Arc Based Upon:
1. Juniper Lake used to be a pretty shade of blue, pristine and healthy, and filled with shiny white stones. But over the years, the water has grown murky, black even, always choppy on the verge of storms. Something is far from right, and...is that a new lighthouse, there on the outcrop of rocks?
2.The old abandoned mansion that sits on the hill above Chestnut Cemetery still has a certain oddity about it, movements in the windows, howling on the full moons, and that eerie green light from the attic windows...
3. In the mountains to the west, people say a group of cultists used to hide out, sacrificing innocent creatures to appease their deity. But that was ages ago, there's no way people are still living up there, right?
