Some candids from last night’s game of Monsterhearts.

One of our story’s villains, a dark power called Lilith the Butcher, is shaping-up to be a very fun NPC. Our story takes place at some point in the 80’s, and I have fashioned Lilith to be a sort-of hair metal goddess. She is often found racing around town in her black trans-am. She is the proprietor of a bar called The Pit, where she was recently found dancing on the bar to “Pour Some Sugar On Me” in front of a rapturous biker gang, one of whom had his eye put out by her stiletto heel. She is campy, vampy, and brutally violent. And in her self-possessed thrill-seeking, she is a perfect foil for our confused and broken PCs. 

MH is such a terrifically fun game. I’m very happy with how the PCs are starting to interact with each other. They are mortal enemies one minute and then the best of friends the next. I suppose that’s pretty close to the teenager experience.
