Session 1: Terror on Primanti Way
Danny was sure glad that Sally finally said yes to a date. She just moved to town, and from the moment he saw her, Danny thought she was very special. Wanting to give her the authentic local experience, he took her down to the Strip District.
“That sure was something,” Sally said, wiping a stray bit of oil from her fingers. “I've never had french fries and coleslaw on a sandwich before.”
“Yeah, next time you should try an egg on it,” Danny smiled, feeling pretty good about how the evening was going.
“An egg? Really?” Sally laughed, her eyes bright under the dim streetlights.
But the laugh died in her throat. The noise they suddenly heard stopped them dead in their tracks. It was a long, heavy scraping sound—like massive iron teeth grinding on cold pavement. They spun around to see a heavy manhole cover just ten feet away push violently upward, sliding across the asphalt with a horrific screech.
What they saw next had them completely frozen in fear. Piercing through the darkness of the open street drain were two bulbous, glowing yellow eyes. A man-sized reptile, easily seven feet tall with scales the color of stagnant river sludge and a thick, sweeping tail, crawled heavily out of the manhole. It hissed, its wet jaws snapping as it fixed its gaze directly on them and started to move forward.

The creature lunges! The stench of the sewers and rotting river fish hits the teenagers before the beast even takes its second step. Panic sets in, but adrenaline kicks their brains into gear.
To see who acts first before the beast closes the 10-foot gap!
- Danny & Sally: Rolled 5
- 7-Foot Reptoid (CS 13, HP 13): Rolled 3
Result: High roll wins! The teenagers react just a split second faster than the subterranean predator!
Danny reaches blindly into a nearby pile of debris outside a closed storefront, his fingers wrapping around a discarded, heavy wooden crate slat—a crude club. Sally looks wildly for an escape route, her heart pounding against her ribs.
