Nothing happened.
The end of the world, and no one came.
That is the sum of my report, sir.
I never saw the eyes.
The town of Millhaven is small and it's bleak and it's cold. But there is nothing special there, nothing of note.
A child of Norn, the raven-girl, the one without an angel. Why can't I speak?
The demon didn't manage to become a god. We don't know why he failed.
The FBI sent someone, with guns. I'm trying to tell you.
It seems to me that it was all a lie. There were no faces in the dark.
Sometimes it does turn out to be nothing. A blip in the cosmic radar, even if the First Man's sister was there. We never did have proof of it, or that she exists.
What did he do to my head? Why can't I say anything?
"I am the man for whom no god waits". Sir? Oh. Something that came to me. I don't know why. I do feel funny.
Try and read between the lines! Try.
I gues that means it's over, sir.
I saw the boy with the hole in his head. All God's children they all gotta diiiie!
The report is on your desk. No one to recruit, no one to deal with. The sleepers must have cleaned up the mess. Thank you, sir. It was a pleasure doing business with you. When next you want to end the world, let me know.

So, UA or 4 Ways will end ....

So, UA or 4 Ways will end ....

Any requests for a next game?

I have a low-key Unbreakable style supers game in my head, but I'll probably wait a while before running it. (Mostly to give the genre a break.)

I would like to run a high-insanity short term game sometime soon, based on "make anythng you want, go nuts with it" Weirdest PC concepts possible, and go from there. Using whatever system the players want, rolling the PCs up in said system, and deciding if, oh, a D&D wizard can hit a Garou hippy on the fly, in free form style, but using dice for sheer insanity of it all.

Paranoia is an option, but a viable Paranoia campaign would be difficult, I think. Ditto for Toon and Risus.

But if anyone has ideas/concepts/suggestions for a new game and/or setting, I'm all ears. Chaos and I have been fiddling around with a Star Wars game, but I think I'd be a better player than GM for such a setting.

System wise, something new/simplewould be preferred. D&D is just too ... limiting .... for a world, so it's out. GURPS is nuts. Personally I'd like to try somethiing we haven't before that everyone would find fun to give a whirl.

So toss up ideas, and let the fun begin!
