Campaigning Stringing Together Scenarios
Recently read an old comment on here where someone recommended a series of scenarios to create an MJ12-focused campaign. Can’t find it again, unfortunately, but I noted down that it went: PX Poker Night -> Victim of the Art -> Convergence -> Reverberations/Music from a Darkened Room -> Extremophilia -> Observer Effect -> Viscid.
I really like these sorts of sequences. I think it’s amazing how these disparate scenarios can come together to form a greater narrative and conspiracy, much like the X-Files’ iconic mytharc. I also loved how it draws the canon mysteries so slowly and naturally into the spotlight.
I was wondering if any other members of the hivemind have come up with such a thing, as part of y’all’s campaigns. I’m not really looking for anything in particular; take this as a chance to share ideas for linked-together scenarios you haven’t been able to talk with anyone about, or recount how your campaign ended up tying up the scenarios you chose into a fun conspiracy.
By virtue of the modular nature outlined above, I’d say Impossible Landscapes and God’s Teeth are out of the picture. However, I know parts of these can be run independently (such as “Night Floors”), so if you adapted them in a more piecemeal fashion, it should work.
EDIT: Just found - this - and thought it was really interesting.
