So on Wednesday, after we've set up dinner and right before the first people arrive, we're informed our GM isn't feeling well and won't be coming to the game that evening.
Uh-oh.
The previous week had been gameless, as Chuckro and I were each too busy and tired to come up with a one-shot. So I felt kind of bad that we were going to have another night of not gaming.
And then Evan makes a comment about how it's a shame that we don't all have general Mage characters generated, because you can come up with a wacky Mage game without much planning.
...I do have characters pre-gen'ed. I made up a full set for a game I ran over a ski trip over a year ago. So I yanked them out, and proceeded to run a game that I came up with in approximately ten minutes. It involved a Marauder creating mythical holiday creatures in Central Park. The Easter Bunny, Cupid, a Jack-o-lantern, a giant turkey with a Pilgrim hat. Santa trying to free the reindeer from the zoo. A leprachaun kicking the shit out of George Washington. It was totally ridiculous, but hysterical. I am very proud of myself.
