19 - Sensational session

The Christmas special of a Vampire: The Masquerade chronicle where one of the PCs stopped an elder vampire hunting a pregnant woman through the streets for his “Christmas dinner”. In their quest to keep the target safe one of the other PCs saw a shelter volunteer was actually an angel, but being a Malkavian she figured she was just seeing things. And it ended with a fight to the death outside the hospital delivery room as bells tolled midnight. Ho ho ho.

In my defence I didn't have a monster come down a chimney. This time.


19a - Session

When emulating episodic TV I always aim to have a session equal an episode. I don’t always succeed, sometimes an idea overflows or something else takes over, but three and a half hours can produce about forty-five minutes of ‘screen time’ highlights.

19b - Hologram

Starfleet should have an emergency engineering hologram that, when activated, sighs “What’ve you done this time?” in Colm Meaney’s voice.
