Café de Nuit

The best uses of rats as objects of horror seem to revolve around being helpless. I mean, rats are tiny. They aren't anything a human needs to fear once they are walking. But if they can't get away or avoid them it becomes something else entirely. I remember the scene in one movie that struck me out...

Also, the movie Below.

I think the thing that makes rats creepy is that it's impossible to keep them out of anything. If they want in somewhere, they'll get in, sometimes gnawing through metal to do it. And once they get in, you don't always know it until it's too late and they do a lot of damage. Usually to property, but...

I remember seeing the Locolico are in one of the Kargatane netbooks... Sacrafices I think. I mentioned this in the dream ideas thread, but I've got an idea for a bogey called the Red Mother: She would have been a woman who lost her children at sea, and in her despair she tried to join them, walking ...

Horror failed by 16. Roll vs. Madness.

Perhaps the armor allows the wearer to build an army through seduction. Maybe something along the line of a Kizoku's Euphoria ability, effecting victims on a larger scale, only instead there is a vicious, mad loyalty and protective rage in her male victims.

A figure from a dream that I'm not sure whether to use as the basis of a sea-cult or as a bogeyman: A cavern deep under the ocean filled with drifting sea-weed, occupied by the blood-red skeleton of a woman, her hair and the rags of her clothing floating in the water. She reaches out her bony arms, ...

I'm a massive, massive fan of this show (like...fanfiction-writing fan). I've also ganked one of their monsters for my game. Though mostly just taking skin-thieves and doppelgangers and sort of smushing them together: Shapeshifter (SN-style): CR 2; Medium Monstrous Humanoid (Shapechanger); HD 2d8; h...

I'll have to try and look this one up somewhere. I absolutely loved Hambly's Dragonsbane books.

I'm really hoping that this movie is good. Moore's had too many of his stories utterly pissed on as it is... Though it be a crime to say that movie of V for Vendetta wasn't at least decent, though there were things in it I didn't quite like. I was a fan of LXG, though, and seeing the movie just made...

Some interesting names in the cast...but I'm slightly disappointed. The Colour of Magic wouldn't be my first choice of another Discworld adventure-turned-movie... Or my second...or third... It's probably the worst book in the series--or rather the least good one. It might be the first book, but I th...
