D&D 3.5: Greenbaum's Prison: A Trip to Hell. Part I
(LichHaven Games Module – Game Creator Tom Ryan DM-ing)
Friday 1pm-6pm
The quaint farming community of Burge’s Burrow keeps secret a sordid past. Three decades ago, a score of children and small animals disappeared sporadically without a trace. A group of hired hands from the nearby city investigated and found that a quiet housewife, Elspeth Crane had been worshiping a dark power. In honor, Mrs. Crane was sacrificing the children and animals by dropping them down her water well. Following an inquisitorial hearing, the villagers dropped her into the well, sealed it shut and left her to die. The Crane Farm was then boarded up.
After three consecutive dismal seasons, the baron sold the Crane land to a young family who, ignorant to the past, opened Frybur Farms under the advisement to leave the sealed well alone. When the baron hears recently of the sudden disappearance of eight-year-old Tolas Frybur and his five-year-old brother Tad, he quickly dispatched aids to find help straight-away. When the first batch of hired adventurers disappear and his village then becomes the devils’ hunting ground, the baron realizes he must reach out for a powerful group of heroes.
Greenbaum’s Prison: A Trip to Hell pits four to six characters of levels 9 - 10 against the horrors of the underworld, taking them to the first layer of hell and into Gorgok's Row. The module also introduces the Optional Heightened Challenge System. This system provides the referee and players a series of optional challenges that test and reward thrill-seeking groups with white-knuckle action and temporary boosts in heroism. How many souls will you save ... ?

White Wolf: Scion RPG Intro – Of Shadows Yet To Come
Friday 7pm-9pm
Have you ever heard the old stories about legendary heroes like Hercules or Beowulf, and found yourself thinking, 'I wish I could do that.'? Have you ever envied the superheros who can toss cars like toys, run faster than the eye can see, catch bullets, or jump over a building? If so, then you'll love Scion. As a child of a god and a mortal, you aren't quite all-powerful, but you certainly have a shot at getting there. Along the way, you'll battle the Titanspawn and their mortal servants, who are bent on releasing entities who will destroy the world as their first act. You won't be alone, however. Loyal companions, powerful items, earth-shaking abilities, and heroic allies will make you a force to be reckoned with. Are you able to rise to the challenge? *Spandex not included or necessary* Of Shadows Yet to Come: You meet a group of people who all display abilities similar to yours, and together you find adventure in a Midwestern town. Unless it finds you first...
