Welcome Back to Blandings!

RPG system: Amber /Blandings crossover
Participants: 8-12 players

By

✏️Mel MacDonald

Description

It’s time to return to Blandings – after a summer spent in the South of France (or somewhere similar). But things seem a little different … Is the walk up the hill from Blandings Parva to the Castle a little steeper? Or perhaps a lot steeper … And why is the very successful restaurant – Mandor’s – suddenly closed? Why is Aunt Flora using a rather generously sized handbag as opposed to her usual clutch purse? And what is keeping Brinkers so busy?

And that’s even before we mention the incident on the train from Paddington.…

Characters:

100 point characters. Stats are Eccentricity, Sport, Tenacity and Money – all will be explained for any new players. The characters are children of the Blandings version of Amberites (except that Fiona and Flora are Aunts). Mirelle and Random Threepwood are too young to have adult children, so also out. Players will also have a special free skill for this game – this time they can choose ONE Amberite skill, adapted for the real world – i.e. one could be Never Get Lost. No Pattern walking though.
