Ending The Night Life (MLA3) Adventure By Anthony Herring For The Marvel Super Heroes Advanced & Session Report

 


"You've been through more in the last few weeks than most normal folks go through in a lifetime. From stolen artifacts to synthetic chemicals, from the Metropolitan Museum of Art to Chinatown, from firelights to fireworks: you've seen it all.
"Well... you thought you had."


"A boy-genius has been reported missing, and clues are few. On top of this, the gang wars are still blazing, and the Imperial Dawn is about to break. Bi|t, there are those UFO's in Central Park... and that problem in Coney Island to deal with.., and naturally, you're the only ones for the job!
NIGHT LIFE is playable as a stand-alone adventure, or as the final part of the GANG WARS trilogy. Alternate starting points are provided for characters who have not gone through the first two sections of this storyline."

 During tonight's Marvel Superheroes Advanced rpg we wrapped up The Night Life (MLA3) Adventure By Anthony Herring. Coney Island was in flames as we broke no only the back of the Si Fan but the Hand as well. At least the two cells of these organizations that had brought Fu Manchu back from beyond the grave. This part takes place from here on the blog. 
We recovered two of the spirit bombs from last session and then began plowing through an assassins or ninja that we came across. We wound up back at the museum and met up with several agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. & got at lead on the Si Fan agents in Central Park. 

At Central Park we displaced & teleported away several Fixer's devices that were centered around amplifying Fu Manchu's magicks. We also had a run in with the Faces of Fear and almost got our clocks cleaned by the Blizzard. Then it was a mixed encounter with gang members, thugs, and assassins. Actually the whole gang were Si Fan assassins disguised as gang members. We also went toe to toe with the Sons of the Tiger who were working with S.H.I.E.L.D. & in the past had run ins with Fu Manchu's minions as the super hero White Tiger. 
We finally caught up with Fu Manchu & his forces and began dismantling his forces along with S.H.I.E.L.D's agents. Our party finally sent Fu Manchu packing back to Hell. The fall out of the Gang Wars adventure is a drastic scattering of New York City's criminal elements especially of the Si Fan & the Hand's cells.

OSR Commentary On The Night Life (MLA3) Adventure By Anthony Herring For The Marvel Super Heroes Advanced & Session Report

Fu Manchu lives! With information obtained from Cloak & Dagger, our party intercepted communications from the Maggia and weapons deliveries. Along with equipment and weapon drops to the Si Fan.  This session picks up from here & here on the blog. 
All of this came down as we dealt with the Faces of Fear gang members. Things were almost over then and there. However we did come out on top after a rough and tumble encounter with several gang bangers. This was to delay us from preventing the kidnapping of a 15-year-old genius.A 15-year-old genius named Cameron Seaver was kidnapped by Fu Fanchu, who forced the boy to help him build five of these powerful devices called the Spirit bombs. 
We had help in the form of Shang Chi aka The Deadly Hands of Kung Fu. Who was working with S.H.I.E.L.D. at the time. 
All of this came off at the same time as a break in at the Manhatten Museum of Antiquities! Gangers also broke into the Metropolian Museum of Art at the same time. 
This our party felt was a distraction from something bigger going on. 
All of these events seem to come to head when we got to the museum.
Our investigation turned up several clues about the thieves including the fact that the Fixer's technologies were involved. We decided to dig in deeper on the museum heist. 
We turned up a body belonging to a security guard at the scene. There were Si Fan methods used on the body. And then the lights went out!
A couple of things about  The Night Life (MLA3) Adventure  By Anthony Herring. The fact is that the resurrection of Fu Manchu has thrown crime in New York City well out of wack. The resurrection has sent shock waves through the underworld. Our own DM has placed several criminal elements and encounters in the game to keep us players on our toes!
