My group just played the first day of this adventure using the Sapio system. We had a blast! The adventure is just evocative. Thanks for creating this.

Can you share your Spare and Spiral lists?

Spares

  • Captain Vilgrip bumps into you during a drunken, one-man pity party. He offers to trade you his captains stripes for a bottle of vodka.
  • Christian Gill strums on his Spanish guitar in front of a gaggle of groupies. With the flip of his hair, he looks up and asks if you need anything.
  • A wall panel falls off revealing a shortcut through the decrepit bones of the Zenobia.
  • The vampire shark takes a bite out of something (or someone) in front of you.

Spirals

  • A ceiling panel falls on the floor revealing the Zenobia's rotting skeleton and blocking your way.
  • A pair of bellhops run screaming down the hallway and knock you over. They gibber about a hippopotamus with the head of a crocodile.
  • Sheffy Pompadour practices the biathlon and is looking for more interesting targets than a case of vintage wine bottles.
  • The vampire shark circles you...

My group finished playing this tonight. Took us 2 sessions. We used a system called Dark Streets and Darker Secrets, which worked very well. We had a lot of fun and I'd totally recommend this adventure!

The adventure can go a number of different directions, depending on what choices the players make. I think it will have great replay value.

I would recommend playing it as a one-shot (as we did). It may be quite difficult to get all the PCs out alive from this scenario (3/4 of our PCs died in the end). 

How many sessions do you think this might last the average group? Is this a one-shot deal, a lengthy campaign, somewhere in between?

I think 2-3 sessions! Depends on how much socializing your players are into- last time I ran it there was a lot of dinner & drinks with vampires & party planning so it took us a little longer.

That sounds like a blast. 


Thanks for answering! I'm definitely going to buy this at some point. Just a matter of when.
