Using the FASERIP system, this superhero action-mystery is set in the streets and surrounds of Hobart, can be played by newcomers and role-playing veterans alike.
Gameplay should take 2-3 hours and can be a one-off or the start of an ongoing campaign.
FASERIP (FASERIP) is a retro-clone of a popular superhero roleplaying game from the 80s. Using d100 for dice rolling the game-play is fast and intuitive, allowing player characters inspired by a wide range of comics, TVs shows and movies to work alongside each other.

A Few Flowers More (Pathfinder)
A hero’s work is never done! Especially when strange new plants start appearing in the woods—plants whose presence draws all manner of trespassers eager to take advantage of the sudden, mysterious bounty. But where are these plants coming from, and what sinister development in the heart of the forest does their arrival signify? Could it be the beginning of an invasion from another dimension... or something worse?
