Sometimes we take breaks in between chronicles. It helps us to remember the love we have for the game, the setting, and the characters. Sometimes we play other games in-between, just to continue in that great gaming tradition of being explorers into new lands, adventurers into entirely new epics, and characters in stories that deserve the chance to be told.
To that end, we recently began a short chronicle of a new game from Onyx Path that you may have heard of. It’s called:
THEY CAME FEKM BEYOND THE GRAVE!
And yes, you must say it with a great dramatic voice or it doesn’t count. We’ve only just begun the Quickstart Scenario, entitled “The Haunting of Abbeyham Priory,” but my group is really loving it. I think they nailed the over-the-top theatrics of the era, and mixing comedy with horror has already given us a few memorable moments. I find that Storytelling for this kind of game makes for a distinct change of pace, even encouraging me to maybe put in a little more effort during my ever-evolving World of Darkness Metachronicle. Things like this help keep me fresh. They help keep the blood pumping hot in my veins. They keep me engaged and trying to improve my craft as a GM.
