Something's Wrong in Babylon
For these folks I decided on a campaign set in Ancient Babylon, with an "Ancient Aliens" slant.
Day 12:
Labynetus - Scholar and wiseman - and early follower of science - heeder of omens.
Day 13:
Amiltu - Ragged orphan of the streets with her own private god.
Day 14:
Nadaya - Hardened warrior, made even harder by recent events.
Day 15:
Maru-Kos - Primitive hairy-man, shaman of the forest.
Day 16:
Hasan-Abra - Noble Sorcerer and speaker to small gods.
The
Main Challenge Post with the running list.
Campaign overview:
Fraal, Sandmen and Serpentmen in a clash between magic and technology with the City-State of Babylon caught in the middle.
The young thief stole an Alien Artifact that's turned her into a Mechalus.
The Sorcerer uses reskinned Voodoo to summon the small gods that would become demons when the Abrahamic faiths take off.
The Shaman is a weren.
The warrior's father was turning into a Sandman.
The Scholar has medical skills from studying anatomy.
I'd run this as investigative until they got some levels, I'd play fast and loose with the medical science penalties to give them a chance. There's a high tech/alien installation in the desert with an AI that could offer them some tech and skill upgrades, including a rejuv chamber to bring back the mostly dead.
For the write ups I kept them short and hopefully evocative - urgent, mysterious, and large in scope.
