Episode

Note: This adventure is not sequential with other adventures. It’s a Halloween special.

      The players have been off of school for a few days (1 full week) since the destruction of their High School. They are taking classes in the old Swiss Colony factory (Import and Export Factory). It is a temporary setup until repairs can be made on their school.

      There are two costume shops in town, Fred’s Costumes (x1.5 cost) and Victoria’s Fantasies (x½ cost). The PCs will have to decide if they are getting dressed up and going trick or treating. They have to either buy their costume at a department store (cheap, -2 Influence, x½ cost), or buy their costume at a real shop (Typical/Good/Excellent, +0/+1/+2 Influence, x1/x2/x4 cost), they then have to decide if they are actually going to go trick or treating.

 

Scene:

      It will begin at the shop or department store. If they choose the department store a passing student will ridicule them. At the shop their choice they will be greeted by the sales manager and they can choose their costume. The more specific of a costume or accessories the quality goes up.

 

Focus:

      While trick or treating the costumes from Victoria’s Fantasies have been cursed. They will actually turn the wearers into their actual costume. One of the PCs will be free of this curse if they shopped at Fred’s Costumes. A local practitioner (Baron Funke) who hates Tristy because she stole her limelight from Ms. Duffle has cursed them all.

 

Action:

      The PCs have to get to Victoria’s Fantasies on the other of town. Along the way they have to deal with all of the various transformed ‘critters’. Remind the PCs that they have to be careful, because most of the critters are actually temporarily possessed humans.
