About the adventure
--- The Messy Details --- Last night, two replicant (android) blade runners staked out the Snake Pit, a famously shady bar, investigating the Replicant Underground. Sanders is in a body bag. Leah disappeared. And your boss, Deputy Chief Holden, wants the mess cleaned up before the press blows it out of proportion. Or, worse, Wallace Corp. does. --- About Electronic Dreams --- Electronic Dreams is an introductory one-shot for Blade Runner RPG. In it, you're a blade runner, a detective charged with investigating replicant related crimes. However, no case is less than morally gray.

About me
Hi👋, I'm Franc, better known as Golvin. I'd like to be your GM. While I mainly run D&D, Call of Cthulhu, and Alien RPG, my real pleasure is trying new modules and systems. (Cowboy Bebop RPG anyone?) Which has led me to a specialization in running one-shots, often including highly detailed handouts, pre-made characters, and other player aids. I also write the Reviews from the Far Reams Substack newsletter, currently focused on helping others get the most out of Call of Cthulhu 7e modules.

Creating your character
Players can make their own character or choose one of 4 pregenerated characters. If desired and given notice, I can provide assistance with character creation. But anyone who has not chosen by the time the game has rolled around, or given insufficient notice, will have to choose a pregenerated character.

Safety
How Golvin - One-Shot GM creates a safe table
As part of onboarding for the game, I send players my Line & Veils and ask for theirs in return. Which are then confirmed at the beginning of the session in a mini-Session 0. During the game, if anything disturbs you, please tell me, leave an "X" in the chat, or privately message me. I will then remove the offending or skip past it. Likewise, if you feel the adventure is going in an unsavory direction but use an "N" instead. I will also check in if I notice anything is off. GM's Note: Please pay special attention to the content warnings. As this module leans into the unpleasantness entailed with the Blade Runner setting, like the replicants second class status. It also features an attempted kidnapping and discuss child death. (That said, neither I nor the module as written allow children to be harmed during play.)
