The Snowman Is Back.... And He Wants Revenge: A Kids On Bike Christmas One-Shot

About the adventure

The magical snowman from your childhood has returned. They were so sweet and fun. It was a magical winter. But now you're teenagers and the snowman seems to have something far more sinister at play. You will be playing these teens as the try to figure out what has gone wrong before it is too late. This will be done using the phenomenal Kids on Bikes, a perfect and new player friendly system. There will be a wild and chaotic adventure through the suburbs as a fantastical snowman goes further and further. Can you save the day or will all that holiday joy be frozen away? Here is what my players have said about playing with me: +"Jacob clearly knows his stuff, and is able to effortlessly improvise and adjust a situation as the game calls for it. As a GM myself, I have taken great inspiration by his style of game, and I've felt very comfortable within the game he's run. I would highly recommend Jacob to anyone of all levels of experience with TTRPGs." +"Jacob has an energy and exuberance seldom found in a GM. The energy of their game is fun and cooperative. Their stories are lighthearted and fun which is perfectly adapted to the game’s setting... If you’re looking for a fun game and an enjoyable experience look no further than Jacob. They are a wonderful GM and you will have a good time."

Additional Details

How to prepare

The game will be done over Discord so a functioning internet connection, computer and microphone/headset is highly recommended if not absolutely necessary. Dice can be done either digitally or using your own physical dice.

What I provide

I will bring a love for these holiday specials that I still force my loved ones to endure today. It will be a unique and dynamic one-shot, a perfect way to explore this system!

Gameplay details

This will be a dark and frosty one shot. To make that fun, safety is of the utmost importance. At the top of the session, each player will fill out the Monte Cook RPG Consent Checklist. From there, we will use a variation of the X, N, and O Cards called Yellow/Red Cards and an Open Door Policy while we play. Finally the game will feature a regular scheduled mid-game break to aid with pacing and avoid bleed.
