Love, War, Epic & La Za Faire - Wretched Space/Wretched Vigilantes One Shot - Session Report 1

 So  yesterday was my friend Silva C. of the Red Room's birthday and she had her book Epic for Wretched Space on offer for free.. The basic gist of the book is that PC's are on patrol out on the  the Outer Rim and follows a group of Wretched Legionaries, the Federation's low-budget patrol troops for Fringe space. 

Well our group of Legionaries is different and have been in cryo sleep since the early 1900's. The Wretched Seven have been on ice since then. But one of thier number has escaped and it's up to the PC's to take him down. 
The French anti hero La Za Faire is on a mission to possess the Cronos Crystal. Since the first World War the Wretch Seven have been a part of the Legion's roaster. They are unfrozen only in the most dire of circumstances. The Wretched Seven are straight out of Wretched Vigilantes. 
The French anti hero La Za Faire himself has been generated using Wretched Époque – Second Edition. He is not only an acomplished gang leader, but also a vampire of 6th level. He's familar with guns, knives, and carries an enchanted rapier. La Za Faire awoke from Cryo cut a swath through the prison station and gated to Proxima IV through a D Gate. After draining guards, murdering the gate operator, & destroying the gate so he wouldn't be followed. He's on his way to destroy the local temple of Chronos. 


The player's PC's tracked him down to Proxima IV & were dropped off using the Epic. The player's PC's managed to find his arrival point and the assassin  droids he left for them. The PC's used the Epic for support and it's a good thing they did because the dice really went against them. Two of our heroes ended up in medbay back on the Epic. 
The rest of the 'heroes' tracked La Za Faire to the local Federation office and found he had drained dry all of the staff! Note that he's not acting in line with his Legionarion file! And the reason is simple about two days ago I bought a copy of  Night Owl Worshop's Loathsome Horrors. Now DM Steve follows and buys everything that the Red Room does. This is on my recommendation. However DM Steve doesn't know about Loathsome Horrors nor the fact that La Za Faire has been taken over by a 'Cosmic Wanderer'. This horror has found the vampire the perfect vessel and what is a cosmic wanderer? Well according to Loathsome Horrors a Cosmic Wanderer; "A Cosmic Wanderer is a lost soul condemned to wander the cosmos in search of a home it will never find.A Cosmic Wanderer is a lost soul condemned to wander the cosmos in search of a home it will never find. Whether an explorer who lost his way, a wizard experimenting with magic he didn’t understand, or a cursed individual tossed into the ether, they have been traveling for so long that they’ve lost all comprehension of time and space" 



































The Federation is well aware of La Za Faire's condition but neglected to mention it too his former teammates. And this gets into the fact that we used Bad Guys Always Lose  for this leg of the mini adventure. One of the PC's found the Federation file on La Za Faire and what the Hell is inhabiting thier former team mate. But will they survive to tell anyone?!  Tune in Next Week!
