PUT IT ON WAX Every night punks tune into Spyder’s show to listen to the
best noise and veingaze ever committed to wax. She’s
got her fingers on the pulse of the underground. But for a
week now her show has been playing nothing but a hissing,
spitting, crackling throbtrack, an aural curse metastasizing the
airwaves. But weird wax statues have started popping up all
over the city, and the two things have to be linked.

The First Light Agency uncovered an ancient curse and pressed
it on vinyl. They know that Spyder gets a lot of her most obscure
discs from a leech called Flint. They also know that Flint has
been in hiding for the best part of a century, unwilling to pay their
blood debt to a junklord known only as K. They made Flint a deal
- get the disc to Spyder, or we give K your location. Flint agreed.

What’s inside?
1. A raccoon or something got in and the
cashier is trying to chase it out.
2. All the food is rotten and nobody
seems to have noticed.
3. Someone is trying to pay with
obviously counterfeit cash.
4. It’s closed. A dusty handwritten sign
in the window says ‘back in 5 minutes’.
5. A fancy coffee place. The name is has
no vowels or has fucked up upper

Complications
roll when the players arrive.
1. you got a tail
2. the music really sucks
3. More than one of your shitty
ex’s is here
4. Someone you wanna impress
is here
5. you forgot to eat before coming
6. you’re secretly really excited
The state of
the party
Use this to escalate the
party as time goes one.
Move up a number when
30-60 minutes passes in
game time or in response to
the players actions when it
feels fun.
1. things are chill, if
everyone could be
evacuated now it would
be a perfect night.
2. it’s really loud, but you
can still hear the specifics
of fights breaking out and
Harold is throwing people
out (the window)
3. the rowdiness is seeping out
into the hallways, random fights
are erupting, water, piss and
blood are starting to saturate the
floor, the furniture in the living
room catches fire.
4. the living room fire spreads
to the rest of the apartment.
The floor is soggy and weak,
vigorous movement and dancing
is starting to make holes. People
with their wits still intact are
panicking.
