Fun With Forgery (Sort Of)

[theron]

The next game I'll be running will be the Buffyverse-Meets-the-Mythos/UMASS-Arkham game that's been living in my head for years.  I've got about two weeks until go-time, and my players are now confirmed, so I've spent today churning out some basic how-to-play guides and a character creation overview, and a campaign background document.  I'm especially proud of the latter, as it let me mock up some phony documents (a UMASS-Arkham acceptance letter and a scholarship award letter).  Ever since I got the "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" box for the old James Bond 007 RPG, I've loved having realistic-looking documents as gaming props.  While this game is going to be fairly short (probably three or four sessions, initially), I hope to further indulge this love by mocking up some ancient texts to blast the sanity of the unsuspecting.
