	Description Edit \| History

You can't sleep. It started like that for all of us, back when we were garden variety insomniacs. Maybe you had nightmares (God knows we all do now), or maybe you just had problems that wouldn't let you sleep. Hell, maybe you were just over-caffienated. But then something clicked.

That was when you took a long walk down the streets of the Mad City, stopped being a Sleeper, and started being Awake. But that click you heard wasn't from the secret world snapping into place. It was the sound of the Nightmares flicking off the safety and pointing a gun at your head.

They can smell you. The Paper Boys are closing in, and you'd better pray you don't become a headline. You're chum in the water, my friend, and it's time you got ready for it... before the clock chimes thirteen again. Now that you're one of us, there's just one simple rule left that must dominate your life.

Stay Awake. Don't Rest Your Head.

The spider email

This was used to kickstart our adventure when it was sent to one of the PCs. Its style is perfect for the insanity of this game and it is easily adapted for use to other games.

A wanted poster for PCs

Currently structured for our characters and their crimes, this poster is easily retooled for your own players. It was written by a member of my roleplaying group who does not have an account and is uploaded with permission.
