Campaign Timeline

September 1995

9/4/95
The group flies to Sweden and crosses into Ayslish Denmark. They wreak havoc among the pirates of Edwyn Prestcote and finally end up killing Prestcote himself.

9/5/95
The group travels to Copenhagen. There, they smash a drug/potion distribution center and learn that Don Pyrus is holding the Queen of Denmark and her children prisoner. They quickly travel to the estate where the children are and free them, then return and free the Queen from the Amalienborg. They attack Don Pyrus, fighting their way through walls of giants and faerie. They eventually kill Pyrus and then destroy an automaton that was posing as Pyrus' accountant.

The inhabitants of Copenhagen turn against the group, apparently due to a Mind Control Satellite.

9/6/95
The group learns that Mobius has put 5 Orbital Mind Control Pyramids in place, and is controlling the entire world. They travel by blimp to Tanzania, heading for his Mt. Kilimanjaro launch facility.

9/7/95
Shot down near Mt. Kilimanjaro, the group finds a mysterious cave, containing a 150 foot tall mummy, who reveals that he is Keth-Amon...Mobius' father from when he first became Pharoah. It is revealed that LeRoy is the reincarnation of Keth-Emet...eldest son of Keth-Amon, and his rightful heir, who was killed by Sutekh (Mobius), when he seized the throne. Keth-Amon heads north to seek revenge on Mobius.

The group makes it to the launch facility, where they rescue Dr. Liebermann and seize a rocket, launching for the primary OMCP. There, Fujiwara fights a duel with Wu Han as Japanese shuttles fire missiles at the pyramid.

9/8/95
Finally, the OMCP is destroyed, and the group flees in an escape pod, which takes them to a spot in North Africa where Mobius has captured Keth-Amon and has prepared the VoidSifter. Mobius is preparing to make his play to become TORG. The group frees Keth-Amon from the control, and Keth-Amon then knocks Mobius and himself into the Void. Illiya then accidentally causes the Eternity Furnace to burn out of control, destroying most of the Sahara.

Sparks is ejected from the Void in the aftermath of this, finding himself alone on a vast glassy plain.

9/9/95
The group holds a massive press conference to try and explain what happened in the Sahara. LeRoy issues a call for the formation of an international regulatory agency to watch over weird science. The proposed name is CROWS: Commission for the Regulation Of Weird Science.

Sparks, making his way out of the glass desert sees a Nile plane.

9/10/95
The group declares a Teotihuacan-wide holiday/party, to celebrate the destruction of the Orbital Mind Control Pyramids and to bring morale back up.

9/11/95
The group travels to Japan, to follow up on some disturbing hints about the Emperor. Arriving at the temple of the Sons Of The Wind, they find it under attack by a construction crew, and beat them off. They learn that the Emperor recently revoked their land grant and sold the property. Greatly disturbed, they travel to Matsuyama, where they believe the Emperor to be held.

In Matsuyama, they discover a vast gospog processing plant, of both the traditional type and a new, reverse engineered sort. They plan an assault, drawing heavily on their Shiki, Koshi, and Rauru Block allies.

9/12/95
The group assaults the plant. The old-type gospog are destroyed, and the new ones are convinced to follow LeRoy, who states that he is their Pharoah. Loading up on the Matsuyama Maru, the gospog and a medical crew are hauled away to Peru, to seek medical attention from the Space Gods.

The group then attacks Matsuyama-jo. To prevent Osato from killing the Emperor, Fujiwara challenges him to a martial arts duel. Finally, after both of them have become completely exhausted, Fujiwara wins. In order to prevent a gospog from self-destructing and killing the Emperor, a mortally-wounded Illiya sacrifices her own life.

The Emperor proceeds to disown Naruhito, the Crown Prince, who had cooperated with the Kanawa corporation and turned against Japan. Fujiwara, who had proven that he was of the Imperial blood by wielding Kusanagi, is formally adopted into the Imperial House, and named new Crown Prince.

Sparks meanwhile makes his way out of the glass desert and collapses.

9/13/95
With help from Abe Hideki, a special videotape is played on television stations across the country (and quickly sent elsewhere in the world). This videotape includes the official announcement of Naruhito's disowning and Fujiwara's adoption, and reveals the Kanawa Corporation for the invaders they are. Enough supporting evidence is provided to generally clinch the case, forcing the Kanawa Corporation to admit their extra-cosm status and fall back on claiming good intentions.

Naruhito commits seppuku, possibly with some help.

Sparks comes across a suspicious group heading for the glass desert: a train carrying Jack, Queen, and a bunch of Shocktroopers. He sneaks in among them.

9/14/95
The group returns to Teotihuacan, where they are rejoined by Yewshoot. They then proceed to Washgton DC for a meeting with President Gore. They agree to into Houston to look for neeeded information.

Sparks, tagging along with Jack et al, returns to his arrival spot, and some excavating is done.

9/15/95
The group sneaks into Houston, acquiring an alligator along the way. They infiltrate the Red Asp's headquarters. Though The Chameleon is captured, he escapes with the help of Ruth. They later learn that while some of the information they recovered was valid, the most important piece was fake.

Sparks, tagging along still, is brought back out into the desert.

9/17/95
The group returns to Houston, breaking into the Red Asp's headquarters. They discover that Ruth and the Asp are secretly one and the same, but she escapes. LeRoy rescues a reporter named Sarah Kellerman.

Sparks takes charge, taking command of the locomotive and guiding it towards the coast. When discovered, a fight breaks out. The locomotive is sent into the sea while the rest of the train is wrecked. Sparks is forced to flee by the approach of the Queen Mary.

9/18/95
In the aftermath of the Asp's escape, LeRoy is able to use his pharoanic (?) authority to cause the garrison of Houston to agree to a conditional surrender. Most of the force is allowed to return to the Nile, though some insist on following FGC back to Teotihuacan, bringing along part of their air force.

Sparks sneaks on board the Queen Mary and spies on the villains. An attempt is made by someone on the sphere, and when Sparks tries to intervene, he ends up unconscious.

9/19/95
Fujiwara goes back to Japan to meet with the Imperial family, and Natasha goes home to visit relatives.

Sparks regains consciousness to find himself among some truly unusual companions. When Jack catches up with them, they are forced to flee again. In the end, they use a Gate to leave the area.

9/22/95
LeRoy decides to go in search of Alianora, and brings the Chameleon and Yewshoot along. The three travel to Salsbury to visit Ambrose. Ambrose isn't home, but Montgomery Edmonds is. A battle ensues, and the group is pointed towards Newcastle-upon-Tyne.

9/24/95
The group reaches Newcastle, last bastion of the Dark in Britain. They find it dominated by Tarenthellin's servants. After much fighting, LeRoy acquires a horse, they destroy Tarenthellin's puppets, and defeat a... nuclear golem?

9/25/95
Lacking any good leads as to the whereabouts of Alianora, the group returns to Teotihuacan.

9/28/95
Discussing the Comaghaz with Jim, LeRoy makes a stunning deduction.

9/30/95
The Soviet Psychic Research Group, dominated by Tarenthellin, destroys the Japanese Imperial Palace in an effort to get at Fujiwara and Katrina. The rest of the group comes to the rescue and defeats them. However, a gigantic Horror has been sent to Tokyo as well. In order to defeat it, the group transforms a turtle into a giant creature of amazing power...
