Survivor Saturday: Bitter Intellectuals Out For Revenge

An apology an all your food will due

No one likes to hear the words, "I told you so" but the higher ups in my Hex Crawl of Horror are going to get an earful. This is what you get you when you warn people that something dangerous is coming but no one listens.

I created this group of survivors using the newest issue of my zine Crit Happens: The Survivors. I walked through almost 20 tables to create this almost “Office” esque survivor group for my fantasy Hexcrawl of Horror

Here’s what I came up with

Survivor Size: 8

Demographics: Intellectuals and Scholars (most likely teachers/professors)

Leader Style: Egalitarian

Fortification: Caves

Food and Water: Prepped (bottled) with a small stream of water entering the caves.

Medical Supplies: Stored up

Military Training: Hunters and Trappers learned from books (they have a lot of books)

Weapons and Armor: Well equipped (many homemade weapons and devices)

Combat Tactics: Unconventional, Sabotage, Espionage and Assassination

Rules and Laws: Law of Jungle

Religion: Polytheism (they don’t all agree)

Hope and Despair: Preparing for the end

Trade and Barter: Network with other outlaw groups

Alliances and Rivals: Exploits other groups

Exploration/Expansion: Driven by revenge towards those who did not listen

Source of Magic: The Hexing

School of Magic: Abjuration

The Hex Touched: 2 are hex touched, 1 with flying and 1 with divination

Magical Limitations and Risks: Cool down period can only fly every four hours

Magic Items (if any): 1 piece of magic armor and 1 wand

Allied with: If you’ve created other survivor groups, determine which are allies.

Enemy of: Witches and Govt. Officials

Survivor Name: The Prophets

What do you think of this Survivor Group? Which actors would you choose to play these angry intellectuals? Lewis Black, maybe?
