Ballygonwen
RPG system: Monster of the Week
By
Daniel Penrose |
Description
Nestled where two roads meet, the town of Ballygonwen evades all
memory. A family passes through the town, realising they’ve left their child
at the filling station; they don’t remember refuelling there. The parents,
holding their reclaimed child in their arms, will soon forget this. The child
will always remember, through the mud of the subconscious.
Those who live in Ballygonwen experience normal, half-lived, lives. Most
are unaware their town bears host to monsters. In the end, they don’t have
to know: whether by oath or freak accident, the monsters are kept at bay,
and the town remains.
Ballygonwen is a game about extraordinary people saving a small Wexford
town from certain destruction. The game plays out like an episode of
“”Buffy The Vampire Slayer””, if everyone was from Wexford.
