MD 408 - Terra Cotta Dream Thieves w/ Brad Kerr

The Terra Cotta Dream Thieves (TCDT) are a rock band of fired-clay monsters who rampage through a town, grabbing people and dragging them across a PPP, painting with their blood and gore.

The PPP (Psychedelic Projection Pillow): This magic item is a pillow made of rock, yet it’s incredibly comfortable to sleep on. A process of smashing a humanoid body against this rock is called ‘Blood-Painting,’ as gory sacrifices are necessary as material spell components. If one is blood-painted and dies, their ghost is locked into the PPP. Smashing a PPP returns the stolen dreams to their owner, and releases the ghosts trapped within.

Uses of the PPP are as follows:

1. Dream Projection: all of the stolen dreams and ghosts’ memories merge together in a psychedelic mélange of images and color. A target hit directly with a dream projection must save or become hypnotized.
2. Ghost Glean: When you sleep on a PPP, you commune with the ghosts trapped within and may attempt to glean information that they knew in life.

MD 407 - Scissor Pit w/ Brian Shutter

The Extreme Pogo Origami International League fights in The Scissor Pit arena, a circular brick structure that has fifteen L-shaped, platform levels that are floating at different elevations above a large pit filled with deadly implements designed to excite the audience of rich gambling fanatics that watch from above.

Each combatant is given a specialized pogo stick and its matching paper weapon. They start on the top platform and fight in a battle royale to the last person standing. Anyone who touches the contents of the pit is eliminated.

The traditional pit is filled with scissors, but sometimes they’ll shake things up by filling the pit with, roll 1d10: 1) balls, 2) slime, 3) spikes, 4) a sarlacc, 5) shredded paper (death by a thousand cuts), 6) fire, 7) turtles, 8) gelatinous cubes, 9) water, 10) syringes, etc…
