The year is 1985; Back To The Future just came out in theaters, big clothing and bigger hair is the trend, Reagan just started his second term. A year ago Jason Voorhees died at the hands of Tommy Jarvis. Jarvis has become the stuff of legends in Crystal Lake with half the citizens viewing him as a hero; the other half believing his cosy white walled room an appropriate epilogue.
The summer is nearing and the camp isn’t going to set itself up. For the first time in years everyone believes that it’ll be safe to go back out to the lake. Many signup as counselors, it looks like drugs and teenage desires finally have their playground back. But little do they know that Jason’s story is far from over.
I joined this site in order to play a Friday The 13th game which died before it began, so I decided I'd run one. I’m a huge fan of the series and strive to do it justice. I believe setting it shortly after the fourth film will allow for some of the more interesting lore of the series to play out, as well as eliminating the unholy contraption known as the“cellphone”.
Rules:
- Characters can and will die. This can not be helped.
- The story starts with the players arriving - their own choice how - to the camp a week before the grand re-opening to help set up.
- There will be provided a detailed description of the camp, the cabins, as well as the nearby town of Crystal Lake
- Each player can have up to two characters.
- Slasher movies in general are known to have lots of sex, blood and gore. Just stay true to the board rules and we won’t have a problem.
- As DM I will have final say on accepting characters and deciding the deaths.
