Campaign 2026

Prestigious blog "Press The Beast" has put out the call for us all in the blog-o-sphere to run a campaign in 2026! No stranger to starting too many new games am I, so here's my entry.

ESCHATON

To quote the primer I sent the players last week, ESCHATON is "a campaign of modern monster hunters in a world much like our own...There are gas stations, interstate highways [can you tell I live in America], and name brands. But there are also monsters, ghosts, secret covens and their magic spells!"

Using rules cribbed mostly from SAVAGE WORLDS, this will be a 4-player in-person campaign hosted at my place every 2 weeks, starting February 3rd. I'm very excited. Players include seasoned veterans of my past games, new friends, and one person very new to roleplaying in general!

I have tried to embrace the ethos of scheduling a session 1, thus putting me on a deadline to make the game and help make the characters...and it worked! Rules are ready, first adventure is ready, characters are halfway made!

Blogging Goals

In the spirit of Campaign 2026, I want to post session reports on here, as well as any fun tidbits of monster design or weird lore that develop through the game as we play.
