Cancer Posted July 8, 2018 Report Share Posted July 8, 2018 At times I find it amusing to create titles for sessions or adventures (a set of several sessions with a single resolution). Sometimes I pass these on to my players; often they're spoilers so I'm the only one who sees them. It happens also that I will change my planned course when I decide the title that wasn't right was cooler than my plan. Examples: Nowhere Beach Going for the Mister Gold {Mr Gold was the alias of the villain} The God of Music's Back-Up Band A Conversation with a Dragon Backwoods Gangbangers If you've done the same kind of thing, consider posting your titles for others' possible use!

BoloOfEarth Posted July 9, 2018 Report Share Posted July 9, 2018 Every one of my Champions adventures has a title. Most are fairly pedestrian (Into the VIPER Nest, Songs of Summoning, Bug Hunt, etc.), but some are more fun (at least to me). When I introduced the supervillain group A-Team (all members have names beginning with "A"), the adventure title was A Plan Comes Together. One adventure in November featuring vampires was titled Happy Fangsgiving. And in December, when the heroes fought the New Gods, it was Merry Zeusmas.

If you were to put that quote into the mouth of, e.g., an NPC scientist who created some menace that he could not control, you could use this quite literally as a title!

drunkonduty Posted July 11, 2018 Report Share Posted July 11, 2018 This is something I do intermittently. And more often with supers games than other genres. But it is something I mean to do more of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armory Posted July 11, 2018 Report Share Posted July 11, 2018 I come up with titles for all of my adventures. Some are better than others, of course. I don't usually come up with one until after the session, in case the players do something that would suggest a better title than I had in mind while writing it. They can all be seen at the Obsidian Portal links in my sig, but here are the better ones: Jurassic Quark - a particle collider accident creates a breach between dimensions and the team is pitted against intelligent, evolved dinosaurs. The Shocking Dead - the team fights electric zombies...cross that one off the bucket list. He Ain't Hedgy, He's My Brother - long story short, a PC with a plant-based origin discovers his long-lost brother, who transforms into what is basically a gigantic, walking tree of destruction. Nano He Didn't - The mad scientist father of a PC's girlfriend infects the team with nanobots, which led directly to the next session where he took remote control of three PCs' bodies and forced them to murder villains, which was called: Excuse Me While I Kill This Guy - to the tune of "Purple Haze", natch. Twisted Christmas - the PC team Christmas party is crashed by their evil twins from another dimension. drunkonduty, Cancer, BoloOfEarth and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattingly Posted July 13, 2018 Report Share Posted July 13, 2018 I've been putting together comic covers to summarize each time our group plays. Trouble Mounts: summoned to a mystical fight club on a mountain Knight Watch: a cursed knight tries to steal a magical artifact In Deep Voodoo: pursuing the chicken man Safe Keeping: we hid the the artifact in our safe and the knight tried to steal it again All Hollow Sieve: on Halloween, the demon inside our teammate escaped Knight Clubbing: we finally lay the smack down on the cursed knight Spell Bound: we capture Etrigan who is amped up on ley lines Isle Eagle Alien: we check into an alert on hawkgirl's weapons cache island Fangs Fur Visiting: we go to a mythical land to return a boy to his homeland Nature Bound: we're trapped by giant spiders and jungle plants Hell Hydra: we fight a multi-headed beast (there are a few issue covers missing thanks to some corrupted files) pinecone, drunkonduty, Armory and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
