"Destiny has two ways of crushing us - by refusing our wishes and by fulfilling them." - - Henri Frederic Amiel, Swiss Philosopher Thank you for visiting! Salutations! Welcome to Corpses and Curios! We are a Modern Horror campaign set in today’s distracted world. A world where the lifeblood of our daily benign existence betrays the septicemia which may end us all. Utilizing a mix of the 4th and 3rd editions of the wonderfully designed GURPS system by Steve Jackson Games - we strive to provide a story-driven focus as five unique individuals are drawn together by machinations beyond their control, but directly affecting their everyday lives. Welcome to our little shop. Pour yourself a glass of your favorite libation, tune out the rest of the world, and allow us to entertain you. We are a horror campaign, and sometimes we find ourselves dealing with sensitive subject matter. We always try to present such material as vital to plot, and never for the simple purpose of attempting to be “edgy.” Some characters have experienced past trauma which comes into play. We do our best to offer "trigger warnings" to those who may be sensitive to certain presentations and representations of events. Our primary focus is on story and character development. A lot of the mechanics and rules lookups are handled "off camera." So, for the purists, I offer my sincere apologies in advance.
