Scenes from the Mall

There is no warning. No scent on the wind. No sound of its presence. No temperature change. No disturbance to radar or satellite. It just returns as naturally as the May early morning dew. An energy force, long dormant, replenishes itself, overflows from its natural, ancient paths and, once again, integrates itself with our world.

On May 1st, 8.00am, great geysers of ethereal mist, swirling light and energy are spewed forth hundreds of feet high. In seconds, the mist segments into strands and wisps and, desperate for life energy, hundreds upon thousands of deadly spirits form into a blizzard of ghostly shapes and descend upon humanity and everything that lives. Coiling, wrapping and choking themselves around their victims, these violent smoke-like creatures kill millions within the first few minutes of their arrival...

Designed for use with the ParaSpace Role Playing System, Scenes from the Mall is a post-apocalyptic, fantasy, that introduces the Awakened Earth setting and follows the journey of the player characters as they try to survive against overwhelming odds and carve out a new life for themselves in a world where humanity is no longer top of the food chain.

As an introductory campaign scenario, although you will need a copy of the ParaSpace Core Rules, it is not necessary to have read any other Awakened Earth material. All relevant information has been provided within these pages.
