Players should not read any further.
Synopsis
The scenario takes place within the walls of a fictional prison and also within the dreams and visions of the criminals housed there. The players take up roles as these criminals, who are being experimented upon by the doctors at the facility. These experiments involve drugs, visions and mythos spells and, of course, go terribly wrong and the inmates are left to fend for themselves against mythos horrors.
PCI Wayfold is modeled after 1980s style private prison facilities though liberties have been taken on private industries’ participation in the PA prison system. The facility is located in Western PA, though could easily be relocated if a Keeper desired. The scenario includes 6 pre-generated characters but could be run with as few as three players.
The NPCs (staff and inmates) are fully detailed and statistics are provided for all relevant NPCs and creatures.
The scenario results in the end of the world if the players fail to solve the presented mythos problems. At least one of them may still die even in success.
