  1. Campaign Starts.
  2.  
  3. You all met in a tavern. At least that's what you think happened. The hangover makes it hard to tell, and currently you're in the middle of a corn field. You see smoke rising in the distance.
  4.

  7. "You watch as the world ends"
  8.

  10.  
  11. I like to start in character generation. Have the players dictate a few scenes about how they got to know one another, maybe write down a few enemies and allies they made in their pre-campaign adventuring. Feels more organic.

  15. "You awake in a room surrounded by horrifically mutilated bodies. Blood covers the room from floor to ceiling. A Genie floats in front of you and asks, "What is your third wish?"
  16.  
  17. I wish to know who I am.
  18. Genie: That was your first wish!

  22. "You enter the tavern. You see eighteen shadowy figures, each of them brooding in his own little dark corner."
  23.

  25.  
  26. You are goblins. Your stats are 2d6 straight down, and this makes you very sad.
  27.  
  28. ---
  29.  
  30. You're running. You have the egg. You're screaming. Your friends are screaming. Behind you, something big is screaming.
  31. You are all screaming.
  32. What do you do?
  33.  
  34. ---
  35.  
  36. >You were once dwarfs, now you are simply refugees
  37. >You remember the good old days, when the mine rang out with the sound of your picks and the song of industry
  38. >You remember your clan, your loved ones, your family
  39. >You survived, just barely, damned to carry on your clan's memories
  40. >Only you remember how it happened, how the hold fell and how the keep was overrun
  41. >You can still hear the screaming coming from deep undergound
  42. >You remember the day when the beer ran out
  43.  
  44. ---
  45.  
  46. You wake up in the dark, and struggle your way to the surface.
  47.  
  48. You look down at your mudstained hands. Bones. It hits you like a truck: You are a skeleton.
  49.  
  50. Do you...
  51. >Explore
  52. >Act Spooky
  53. >Scream Forever
  54.  
  55. ---
  56.  
  57. You are all in a tavern. But the tavern is busy floating and spinning in a raging torrent, and you're not sure if the tavern will hold.
