[EPT] One Shots

[greentongue]

I have created several play examples for my Savage Tekumel conversion.
Morusai hiUjjain and The Bandits

Banyu's Escapade

Arrested!

and
Tabunta's Trail

I was wondering if this sort of thing would be more useful if written up as One Shots instead.
(Either using the Classic EPT or a conversion such as Savage Worlds.)

Any opinions or examples if people have already done this.

Nice play examples, and it would be nice to have something written up in "one shot" module format. I've been thinking about running an EPT session or two, and short adventures would be neat to get my players "into" the setting.

Something like Hard Pressed

or something a little different?

Updated Hard Pressed to be playable.
Just add your sewer network on the fly.

Any feedback is welcomed.

That's a nifty scenario -- thanks! BTW, I think you have a typo where "Ksarul" is meant.

Corrected, the Acolyte that mis-transcribed the manuscript will be assigned suitable onerous tasks as punishment.

btw, thanks.

Is this sort of thing useful? If so, I can make a handful of Initial Encounters in Jakalla in the same style.

For the Hard Pressed GM side, should a small map be included or do you think most people would just whip up something of their own?

What gives this an EPT flavor, and not just “Generic”, is the names used during play. Such as “The Chambers of Nocturnal Nutrification” for the mushroom farm areas and “The Avenue of Expeditious Traversing” for the secret route past the dead guarded door.

I suppose I should add that to the sheets and not assume the GM will make it up their own. After all this is to "Jump Start" a game for those just picking it up and not for those that have played it a lot.

I don't think a map necessary, as the scenario does not depend on any particular layout. On the other hand, I see that you have the hard-pressed or new GM especially in mind. If you feel up to adding a map, it certainly would not detract from the work.

I "Exalt" you.

... and now with crude map included!
;D

Unless there are other suggestions, on to the next Adventure. After all, that patron must have _something_ for them to do.
