“The Land of Giants” is a Standard One Shot in the Mavericks system, led by Ansel Burch
"Some people go off into the world and become too big for their hometown. It happened to my brother. He writes every once in a while and once tried to visit, but this place just isn't big enough for him anymore.
That's why I had to bring you all here. That's the emergency. We got a letter last week, and it's suspicious. Everything about it raises red flags. I know if you read it, it all seems innocuous and normal. Trust me, if you knew my brother, you'd know that there's no way he could have written anything like this. That's why I'm putting together a group to go to the big city. We're going to find my brother and make sure he's okay. It won't be easy, I don't know. I don't know the first thing about life in that place. How do they get around? What kind of dangers might there be? What is the food like? How much money should we bring?
Every family in the valley has someone who went off to the big city. So, the way I see we all have reason to worry if something's wrong there. We've got to go and see for ourselves. "

You’ve made it! Your team and the other finalists have made it to the final event of the Bramble Gamble Scramble! It’s been the first one held in years since the unfortunate ending of the last Scramble, and you’re determined to put your town on the map. You’ve trained in every situation you can think of, you passed every prelim with flying colors. You just have to make it to the end before the other teams, and the glory is yours! At least, it could be yours…if you don’t run out of time.
This game is great if you like the diverse challenges, mystery, and creativity.

Secrets of the Sky Spear is a Standard One-Shot in the Daggerheart system. Led by Sean
"On a primeval world untouched by civilization, scattered hunter-gatherer tribes of many thinking species struggle to survive amid colossal beasts and deadly wilderness.
What begins as a routine hunt turns extraordinary when a blazing star falls from the heavens...embedding itself in the earth like a jagged spearhead the size of a mountain!
What is it? A weapon of the gods, a relic from beyond the stars, or something far stranger?
Step into an awe-inspiring and alien landscape on the day everything changes. Unearth impossible discoveries. Experiment with mysterious artifacts you absolutely should not be touching. Survive long enough to tell the tale...and perhaps alter the course of your world’s earliest history."
This game will be great if you like curiosity-driven adventures, crafting mechanics, and poking dangerous things with sticks.

“Hammer of the Earth” a Standard One Shot in The Ultimate Micro-RPG Book system. Led by Nona de Koning.
For the city to survive, it must move. Hammer of the Earth is an adventure game about humans who worship the last machine in a world ruled by vines. You are Outriders, individuals who ensure the fuel supply for Hammer. It's the last bastion of civilization in the form of a gargantuan train, each carriage housing ten thousand souls, navigating an endless network of tracks. If the train stops, they are all doomed. The Navigator (GM) picked you from your various factions to keep the train moving. Presented with a limited clock and numerous obstacles, can you get back in time? Success or failure, you must all work together, even if in the end only one of you is held responsible for the outcome... Hammer of the Earth is part of The Ultimate Micro-RPG Book, an anthology of 2-page games. This means it's very rules-light and very easy to learn, but players should be comfortable using their own imagination without many rules to hold on to. This game will be great if you like rules-light adventures, countdown clocks, an impending sense of doom and trying desperately to be the hero when everything seems to be against you.
We'll create characters together at the start of the game, it only takes mere minutes.

In the deepest part of the city of Vjernigas festers the abandoned guild of dungeoneers. The ancient order once tunneled through the region, protecting the growing communities of the Hartwood from subterranean threats.

The Sovereign has promised lavish funding to anyone who resurrects the old order and begins the process of clearing out the tunnels. It won't be easy, but it will be... exciting.

“Recipe for Disaster” is a Standard one-shot in the Wilderfeast system led by Nona,
Hunter. Ranger. Keeper. Chef.
In Wilderfeast, you are a Wilder. You are human, though you might not look like it, as with every hunt, you incorporate part of another monster into yourself. Once upon a time, the first Wilder dedicated their lives to containing the Frenzy, the incurable curse that amplifies hunger, pain, and rage in a vicious cycle. But despite their best efforts, it now circulates with virulent speed across the One Land. Wilders spend their time between hunting monsters that cannot be saved and helping those that can. As the Frenzy spreads, the Wilders fight to maintain harmony between humanity and nature. They kill the creatures they must, nurture the ones they can, and consume the ones they fail to save. In doing so, Wilders transform into half-human chimeras, for like all monsters, they derive their power from the One Law of the One Land: You are what you eat.
The game offers a nice blend of exploration, roleplay, and combat in its gameplay loop: Travel and discover plants and monsters in the One Land. Forage and cook meals. Track and hunt down a frenzied monster. Honor its sacrifice with a feast that will forever change you (literally!) In today's adventure, poachers have captured the Wilders, along with several wild monsters they hope to sell to the Charter. But one caged monster has the frenzy and escapes! To secure their own freedom, to keep the infection from spreading, and to ensure no one else gets hurt, the Wilders must band together and hunt it down.
This game will be great if you like cooking, exploration, nature, animals, monsters, Dungeon Meshi, and Monster Hunter.

“Blood in the Water” is a Standard one-shot in the Rapscallion, led by Ansel Burch
Sail the strange seas with a crew of magic-touched, vice-driven, twice damned pirates. The Leviathan's horde calls to the captain, and for the first time, our assorted ghosts, djinn, demons, and monsters are in agreement. We stand to profit enormously if we can get to the skull grotto before the beast. The scaly bastard's been seen on the other side of the world. Even at his speed, we should have a couple of days for the heist of the decade.
This game will be good if you like pirates on the edge of destruction and fantastical adventures driven by personal need.
We will build characters in session.
New players are welcome.

“The Terror of Dagger Bay” is a Standard One-Shot in the Deck system, led by Ansel Burch.
There are a few pirates in the world who haven't been to Dagger Bay. It's a rite of passage to sail along the bay from the false edge to the true. It's said that the blade won't cut down those tougher than steel. What happens to the others may be too gruesome to tell. Can your crew exfiltrate a young myrfolk and a flylander who ran off to become pirates?
This game will be good if you like Pirates of the Caribbean, Hook, and Sea Hawk.
