Adventure Ideas
Adventure Ideas posted in Gamma World forum comment posted by derek_holland One of the fun things about Gamma World is how so many real world tales can be turned into adventure hooks.
One or more of the heroes' allies have become despondent, slowly losing their will to live. That and performing minor acts of cruelty towards animals. A couple days ago, one of the heroes notices on of those friends using a new mutation, a ray that froze a barrel of water and killed the fish inside it. They refused to answer why or when they got that nifty new power. It may have been a while ago as that particular character did start up a business selling ice a few years ago.
Eventually the allies will vanish, though following them won't be difficult. Rather the problem is getting other citizens of the community to join in the search as the path leads to The Pit, the lair of a robot devil rumored to steal souls.
Those rumors aren't wrong. The robot grants nifty powers in the form of cyberware but at a cost. Eventually, when the payment comes due, the implanted characters will lose control of their bodies to the robot and become its servants for a short time. Why a short time- it doesn't understand the need for food and water.
Now the heroes have a choice- follow and attempt to free their friends, sell their own souls for very nifty powers, or try to raid The Pit for who knows many many artifacts are there (the ones on the bodies). Or ignore the whole thing and try for new allies.
