Goonie’s World

Four little mice who live in the city of Bernpyle are sent on a crucial quest to find out why a delivery of cheese from the city of Stumpsville never arrived. As they undertake their arduous journey, an encounter with ruthless frog bandits tests their courage, but the furry foursome endure, reaching their destination and discovering yet another danger: dreaded Pierats!

The team rescues a civilian and servitor carrying vital intel from the crosshairs of a sniper, then helps secure the area. Things turn chaotic when the lights suddenly go out just as a horde of Poxwalkers shows up. Will it be lights-out permanently for Kroog, Flak, Lynane, and Bumper, or will they shine brightly like the flame of the emperor?

The heroes are faced with escorting a Fireteam Bravo tank through the rubble and helping the wounded that are strewn across the battlefield. Afterwards, tanks and Valkyries bombard the spire and its gates, while the ground soldiers push forward. Finally breaching the gates, the team confronts a formidable cultist.   

After taking shelter and awaiting their next orders, Kroog, Flak, Lynane, and Bumper are tasked with disarming mines to clear the way for tanks as they proceed to Delta 9. Explosions occur. Later, the team meets a suspicious man claiming to have disturbing news about the emperor.

The soldiers make their way towards Delta 5 and have gory encounters with heretics and mines. With the bunker now in sight, it’s up to one brave fireteam member to make a daring, selfless act for the glory of the Imperium.

In the 41st millennium, a group of criminals conscripted into the Penal Brigade of the Gilead Gravediggers are sent on a perilous mission to assault a dam. Nobody in the Imperium would be surprised if they are blown to smithereens right out of the gate, but Fireteam Bravo has other plans, and God-Emperor willing, they might just live to see another dark day.   

After entering the Empty City, the party sets its sights on Percy Butterworth’s tower and is accosted by mutated Degenerates. Inside the tower, they are forced to answer a series of riddles but, at last, get their hands on the tantalizing treasure they’ve journeyed so far to find. Holding on to it, however, requires a battle bigger and riskier than ever before.

The team traverses the Collapsing Mire, encountering absurd abominations, and stumbles (literally) onto a shortcut to the Acid Wastes. After battling even more bizarre beasts, they arrive at Plankton Downs, where they’re told that Percy Butterworth’s treasure lies in an abandoned alien city further to the south.

The adventurers exit the Slow Sledge and are informed that all of the stilt lopers, which would take them the rest of the way to Plankton Downs, have been reserved. The Loper Lord agrees to provide one if the tyrannical overseer of the nearby Xenolithium Mine, whose batteries charge the lopers, were to have an unfortunate accident. The party seeks a more diplomatic path, but the situation inevitably turns violent.

While traveling on the Slow Sledge to Plankton Downs, the team visits the bar, crowded with colorful characters such as ice miners and nuns from the Martian Orthodox Church, when they inadvertently stumble upon the scene of a murder. Wasting no time, they attempt to suss out the killer before more victims are claimed.  

After being confronted by security guards, the team acts swiftly, and a major surprise is revealed. With the portable computer now in their possession, they retreat to a safe location while Khiry extracts some very interesting data. Back at the Aphrodite, the thieves head up to the low orbit docks, where more surprises collide, resulting in a chaotic conclusion that doesn’t work out so well for everyone involved.

The criminal masterminds continue to plot their audacious heist, and Laz manages to set up a rendezvous at a hotel later that evening. In the meantime, they scout out the casino and weigh their options. After they raid a hotel supply closet, Skip is met with an unexpected shock at room #1208.

Under the surface of Venus, three ambitious Earthlings conspire at Miixxiie’s Milk Bar and Buffet to accomplish an unthinkable undertaking – robbing the exclusive Aphrodite casino, which orbits above the thick, Venusian clouds. As the would-be heisters get to know each other, a new character and unexpected intel enter the picture. Exciting possibilities begin to emerge.

With treasure in tow, Duddley “Raw Dawg” Gruff, Cosmo Moonfoot, and Emmaleth Starstorm begin their trek back to the Keep on the Borderlands. It’s no walk in the park, however, as the party is pursued by blood-thirsty orcs from the Caves of Chaos. A final surprise greets the heroes near the entrance to the keep.  

Another battle with hobgoblins ensues, and later, the rescued merchant’s fate is settled. Finally, the party reaches the culmination of their efforts, and a make-or-break test of valor lies before them. Feelings are shared, and blood is shed.

Entering a secret door, the adventurers run afoul of goblins, and later, find themselves battling their larger hobgoblin cousins. After freeing a prisoner, their attention is drawn to the blare of an echoing battle horn.

The party’s encounter with a strange old hermit leaves them battered and bruised, but with some scroll casting and a day of rest, they reach the Caves of Chaos fully invigorated. After settling on an entrance, they finally get their first taste of the caves’ risks – as well as their rewards.
