Reboot - Horror Game

Post by ImpInTraining »

Reboot
Setting: Modern Day Boston
Game System: Call of Cthulhu - Chaosium rules (latest version)

It was a normal day, for all intents and purposes... a nice fall afternoon where people were enjoying the warmer-than-seasonal weather. That's when it happened. The specialists are calling it "The Reboot" now, because a little after 3PM that day, all the people in Boston who were using phones (and perhaps some other electronic devices) suddenly went crazy. It's hypothesized that there was some tone or signal on the airwaves that somehow 'rebooted' people's brains. Everyone effected went psychotic, killing anything and everything.

And as if that wasn't bad enough... it's the day after and now they're starting to flock together. A Croud of Crazies marching down the road ... it's quite unnerving. But we stay put here in the shadows of our current hide-out, hoping against hope that they don't take notice of us. They've taken the daytime... but the night is ours. The night is ours.

I'm looking for two players to replace abandoned characters. If you're interested, see the bottom of this message for contact information.

I should have mentioned, perhaps... this game is inspired by Stephen King's story "Cell".
