ETU students fight monsters

Fear the Chickens

Thumbnail of Modern Dispatch 93: Chickens in the MistThe O’Conner brothers own and operate a small chicken farm in the hinterlands of Golan County, Texas. Unbeknownst to most citizens, the brothers also run an illegal cockfighting operation on the side. Unfortunately, the high-class attendees of these illegal matches have become somewhat jaded towards the normal brand of bloodsport, which has caused the brothers to seek out more exotic match-ups. In this case, the matches have progressed to fighting giant, carnivorous, mutant chickens in a great bloodletting of claws, beaks, and feathers. This adventure is presented in an easy format for the GM to customize for his indvidual champaign as he sees fit. Chickens in the Mist draws the characters into searching the O’Conner homestead for clues, leading ultimately along the back roads of Golan County in a running battle with enraged, giant, mutant chickens!

Modern Dispatch #93: Chickens in the Mist includes all of the following:

  • The Chickens in the Mist adventure outline.
  • One keyed map indicating a remote section of Golan County.
  • One page of cut-out figures representing the mutant chickens.
  • Full creature statistics on three new strains of Mutant Chicken!
  • Pinebox News
  • 15 pages of content, plus the OGL.
