New Flesh Rpg & William Hope Hodgeson's Nightland rpg Session Report

  We've got together despite the weather and snow here! We've got a diverse group of New Flesh rpg  party. These guys are sent into an alternative timeline to plunder for technology. In this case, it's the far future of William Hope Hodgeson's Nightland & the party ended up in the twilight zone of the railed cities which chase the giant red sun before the cold horrors of the Nightland close in. 

The party missed the city on the rails by two hours. And so the party was left  deeply in the wilderness.
Around them were dozens of volcanic 'fire holes' and these the party looked to survive the night. The cold was starting to set in. 
They ended up battling a couple of giant scorpions and spiders within  one of the holes. Our adventurers ended up within a clean volcanic hole and deployed water collectors. The night pasted without incident. 
The morning was a different matter as they climbed out of the hole to a red sun rise. They drank clean water and began following the rails toward the travelling city. 
The party was attacked by wicked obsidian arrows from the primitive and dangerously cannibalistic  mutant Humpted Men!
“And I saw how that the Humped Men did seem to be humpt by reason of their being so monstrous thick and mighty of the neck and the shoulder, as that they had been human bulls. And I saw that they were very strong, and by the speed of their climbing, I knew they were swift…” – Ch. 9, “The Dark Pyramid”
The party beat back the cannibal tribe of mutant horrors but not for two horrors of game time. We ended with the party going back to thier lava tube encampment. We ended here.
Alright the Nightlands by William Hope Hodgeson is practically unreadable for it's first chapter. I've read it ages ago and recently reread the book. Within it is reference to the railed cities which follow the bloated far future  red sun before it sets around the dead seas of our former Earth. This of course takes place millions of years in the future. I filled in wasteland & mutant  details using The Red Room's Wretched Apocalpyse Second Edition. 

So basically I built on some of the ideas of the Wretchedvese's temporal wormhole generators for alternative timeline travel. See the Wretched web comics & plugged in some of  William Hope Hodgeson's material.
