A Campaign Frame Compilation
Old gods drink themselves to oblivion in a Philadelphia dive bar. A mysterious death and possible theft are the Saint-Germain legacy. In a small Southern town¸ that which rises will not be put down. Hard-boiled gumshoes investigate magical crimes in the twisted '50s. Soldiers hunt down and destroy horrible elder beings in Project M.A.G.I. Punk rock channels magic stolen from the Devil¸ live... from New Amsterdam.
This book is a collection of the first nine Mortal Coil campaign frames¸ plus one additional bonus campaign frame available only in this compilation. A copy of the core Mortal Coil rules is required to use these in your Mortal Coil game.
A campaign frame is a fully sketched out setting in the form of a detailed theme document¸ with all of the world set-up choices written out in detail. These are designed to be customizable by your game group. Each frame contains options for more than one tone and magic level. You choose a tone and pick the magic level that is appropriate for your game. Players then create characters¸ or choose one of the characters listed in the campaign frame¸ and you can begin play immediately.
Campaign frames are great ways to do a quick setup for Mortal Coil¸ and are ideal for playing a pick-up game or convention game. If your players really like the setting¸ the frame can be used for a longer term game as well. A campaign frame is also useful as a how-to on setting up a unique theme document of your own.
