synopsis
Welcome to a world where everything around you is just a little… off. A world where shadows house monsters, where danger sits in wait below the calm surface.
Welcome to Random Synapse Misfire.
First, we’ll join a small group of travelers as they embark on the final ferry crossing of the night. As the vessel pulls away from the shore, all seems well. Then, as if triggered by something passing underneath, all hell breaks loose. Some strange force lays siege to the passengers and crew. What is it, and will it leave anyone alive?
Next, we’ll visit a small midwestern town named Hoxie on what should be just another day. As citizens go about their lives, a siren sounds in the distance. When people fall ill, suspicion turns to the agricultural research facility on the outskirts of town. A small group, trying to escape, learn that whatever is in the air isn’t the only threat.
Then we’ll finish up with a visit to Lenny Pierce, a small-time crook. We find him making his way to meet his crew at a dive bar. See, a source tipped Lenny off to a mansion just outside of town. The wealthy owners are out of town, leaving their possessions easy pickings. However, Lenny soon learns that some offers are indeed too good to be true.
