Blood on the Building Site
GM: Fabian
Description
Hard hats. Cheap beer. Cosmic horror. It’s the 1990s, and you and your crew are rough-and-ready construction workers who suddenly stumble into something far worse than shoddy construction jobs or botched blueprints: ancient, tentacled terrors from beyond space and time. Armed with shovels, wrenches, and liquid courage straight from the can, you’ll have to face the unspeakable—and maybe, just maybe, save the world.

Additional Information
The game uses a very simple set of rules that will be explained at the start of the session. You’ll create your own character at the beginning of the game. Character creation is quick and easy — the character sheet is literally a beer coaster. From Paula, the grizzled bricklayer, to Max, the hapless student intern, or anyone in between.
The focus is on humor, slapstick and chaos, rather than detailed mechanics or genuine dread.
The characters might be drunk on the job, but the players don’t have to be — bring whatever keeps you hydrated.
Appropriate safety gear will be provided to all participants. Whether it helps against cosmic horrors remains to be seen.
