This is a one-shot run of Bed, Bath and Beyond, a one-shot hack of Brindlewood Bay about an elderly gay couple investigating disappearances in their Bed & Breakfast by Alicia Furness and Chris Bisette published in Codex Starlight 2. This is a single session of four hours in length. General sign-ups will be available in 72 hours time (March 7th). We will be using Zoom for our session. This session will be recorded, and may be released on Youtube with the consent of all participants.
Brindlewood Bay is a game in which a group of elderly women, members of the mystery book club the Murder Mavens, investigate murders in the town of Brindlewood Bay while a secretive supernatural conspiracy plots in the background. In Bed, Breakfast and Beyond, two players will play as an elderly gay couple running a Bed & Breakfast, from which people have been disappearing in strange circumstances. Together you will explore the eerie Room 3, and the history of your relationship with one another.
Content Warnings: This game centres on the investigation of missing persons and a looming supernatural mystery. There may therefore be themes of horror and/or violence. This game is also centred on a romantic relationship between the two player characters, and this is fundamental to the premise and mechanics of the game - if this is a situation you are not happy roleplaying then this is probably an unsuitable game to play. (Though we will not be eplxoring any graphic sexual content). We will have a discussion on tone and content before the game begins, as well as establishing Lines & Veils to provide a comfortable play experience. This game will take place under the Gauntlet Community Code of Conduct and the safety tools Script Change and X-Card will be in use. I will aim to get in touch with participants through either the Gauntlet Slack or email a week in advance of the game to confirm attendance and provide play materials.
