LIVE PLAY UPDATES (from first session at Voss building) Voss scene — Act I: - Bodyguard kills differentiated: Payne = Wren's clean signature, Velasco = Sera's messier work — she fought back and got skin under her nails - NEW CLUE #13: CCTV footage — Charlise retrieved 34 seconds from the partially-missed east lobby cam: two women entering 22:40, coordinated, neither looks at the camera - NEW CLUE #14: Skin under Velasco's nails — female, mid-twenties, not on record; Sera is carrying that wound right now - Charlise added as key NPC in the scene: building manager who pulled the CCTV and building access logs, calm, professional, cooperative Judge Ostrow scene — Act I: - NEW WITNESS: Michelle — sex worker, sedated not killed, found the body, still in holding room. She saw the jaw scar. She heard Ostrow say the name. - NEW CLUE #15: Ostrow said 'Wren' — he recognised his killer before she reached him and didn't try to run or call for help - Ostrow scene updated to include Michelle's presence and testimony NEW NPCs: - Charlise: Building Manager, Bradbury Tower. Stats, disposition arc, GM note. Uses Marisol image (closest match) — placeholder for real art. - Michelle: Witness. High Empathy/Insight (she reads people for a living). GM note contains the critical detail she holds back: Ostrow said 'Wren.' NEW HANDOUT: BR19-H00-C — CCTV Stills LAPD evidence format, 34-second partial recovery, two subjects described frame by frame, analyst note flagging coordinated movement, forensic cross- reference to Velasco nail DNA, Subject B favouring left arm on exit CLUE TRACKER updated: - Essential clues now 11 (was 8) — 3 new live-play discoveries added - Clues 13, 14, 15 pre-marked as found (state:1) since they were discovered in session - Clue #4 updated: 'two killers — different techniques' replaces 'different prints' (more specific to what was found) CINEMATIC STORY REWRITE: All five chapters rewritten for screen-prose quality. Present-tense opening. Camera-movement structure. Shorter paragraphs, harder cuts. Chapter 1 (The Past): opening paragraph positions the Blackout as sensory presence; tighter; cell decision rendered as a single shot. Chapter 2 (now 'The Night It Begins'): fully rewritten to include the actual play events — Charlise in the lobby, Velasco's wound, Michelle in the holding room, Ostrow saying 'Wren.' The key moment is Michelle's testimony rendered as the chapter's closing pull-quote. Chapter 3 (now 'The Trail Opens'): consolidated trail; Halden rendered in a single economic paragraph ('the point of Halden is not what he does in this room'); Sera's arm wound visible as continuity detail. Chapter 4 (The Tower): tighter, harder, more present-tense rhythm. Coda: cut to minimum — the image, the decision, Greer, and Wren walking.
RPG GM Repository — timevans666
A working repository for scenario development, GM resources, and play history across multiple game systems and conventions.
What's in Here
This repo has two distinct areas:
1. Convention Events
Scenario prep files tied to specific conventions. Each convention has its own section.
ChaosiumCon UK 2026 — scenarios/
| Event | Title | System | Day | Time |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 91 | BRP – The Night Crawler | BRP | Fri Day 2 | 7:00–10:50pm |
| 92 | CoC 1980 – Last Train to Coney Island | Call of Cthulhu | Sun Day 4 | 7:00–10:50pm |
| 93 | CoC 1920s – Not Another Telegram | Call of Cthulhu | Sat Day 3 | 7:00–10:50pm |
| 94 | CoC Gaslight – The Curious Case of the Yorkshire | Call of Cthulhu | TBC | TBC |

| 159 | BRP – Day One | BRP | Sun Day 4 | 2:00–5:50pm |
As new conventions are added, they will appear here as separate entries alongside their own folders.
2. Scenario Library — scenario-library/
A permanent personal archive of RPG scenarios across all games — not tied to any specific event. Organised by game system. Use this to track what exists, what has been run, and what could be revisited or adapted.

Working with Claude
Each session:
- Claude pulls the latest from GitHub at the start
- We work on scenarios, assets, or the library
- Claude pushes after every meaningful change
What can be worked on:
- Convention event scenario development — building out
scenarios/event-XX-*files - GM apps — HTML tools, character pickers, random generators
- Scenario artwork — SVG illustrations for handouts or atmosphere
- Scenario library — filing new scenarios, updating play history, indexing what exists
