"Every year¸ Santa fills his sack with gifts and takes to the sky on his magical sleigh¸ spreading joy and wonder¸ and bringing hope and happiness to children all around the world. Ho¸ ho¸ ho!
But the unsung heroes of this story are Santa's wife and helpers-they spend the entire year making toys¸ while Santa works for just a single day and receives all the credit. Worse still¸ he can't even get his one job right without help; he forgets things¸ eats too many cookies¸ and gets stuck up chimneys!
You are Santa's helpers. Having spent the year preparing for Christmas Day¸ you were just about to sit down and enjoy your one day off¸ when the emergency alarm started ringing-Santa's got himself into trouble yet again! Mrs. Claus will teleport you to his last known location¸ but the rest is up to you.”
Christmas Capers is a standalone scenario for the Tricube Tales system and is usable as a micro-setting¸ but it is also a fully self-contained one-page RPG in its own right. You can print it on a single sheet of paper: The first page includes everything you need to play¸ while an optional second page expands the adventure generator with examples and twists. The PDF uses layers for ease of printing.
The illustrations are by Rick Hershey of Fat Goblin Games¸ and most of them come from his Holiday Mini-Subscription. I'll add more character cards as he releases new artwork!
