Kathleen Sinclair was a forensic psychiatrist working with police and laboratory technicians. She ran foul of a colleague who really didn’t like it that a woman was better at his job.

He set out to remove his problem permanently. Both working late one night, he poisoned her. However, a big storm had just hit and the building’s systems overloaded, killing both of them.
That was not it for Kathleen, however, as an entity held her spirit back, offering her a chance to protect others in her new state and with new powers.

The Storm Spectre was born.

FAE: The Muppet Show – A New Season

Draft 1.0 – April 29, 2013 – Blue Tyson

A comedy improv scenario. One person plays Kermit and tries to wrangle the other players pseudo-GM style into putting together a show for the night, including thinking up a guest star for this new season of the show.

To make it snappy, rotate roles and enforce an actual showtime of around 20 actual minutes on each episode. With half a dozen players, a 2-3 hour game session with breaks of as many episodes as there are players, if a longer game is desired.

Much opportunity for social conflict, with the odd shooting out of a cannon or kung fu chop to be had. Or literal dropping of the curtain on someone with the addition of an occasional monster stomping.

Who can inflict Wayne and Wanda, dancing haggis or Russell Crowe singing on people the longest? Have a terrible opening number, a star vehicle, a couple of others and a star finale if you want a possible structure. With between number craziness backstage in between.

Fate points should be gained for making people laugh, limelight hogging, terrible puns and outlandish acts. And perhaps incredibly flamboyant failure. Twenty minutes of cross-table invoke and compel chaos. Bonus for survived pig jokes.

Another fun wrinkle might be to put the characters into a hat and pick at random, with more in the hat than there are people to play them, to get a rotating cast. Or guest MC even, if no-one picks Kermit.

Feel free to add more muppets into the hat, as you think of them, but these are the major talking players.

A suggested added problem. If ANYONE rolls – – – – on 4dF, Crazy Eddie shows up and starts blowing things up at random.
