Monster of the Week - Crossover Scenario

This isn't something I plan to do, it's just something I thought up and decided to type up since Halloween was just around.



The concept, characters from separate occult investigation and urban fantasy settings have been pulled through space and time and find themselves together in a strange house which they can't seem to leave.  Supernatural things are pursuing them and they have to try to solve the situation in order to escape back to their rightful universes.

Ideally, players would each choose a different setting and a different playbook.


The Chosen:

Buffy Summers (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Michael Carpenter (Dresden Files), Shirou Emiya (Fate/Stay-Night), Saber (Fate Stay/Night)

The Divine:

Castiel (Supernatural), Uriel (Dresden Files)

The Exile:

Ichabod Crane (Sleepy Hollow), Sherlock Holmes (Sherlock Holmes), Henry Armitage (Dunwich Horror), Dr Abraham Van Helsing (Dracula), Brisco County (Brisco County Jr)

The Expert:

Bobby Singer (Supernatural), Niles (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Kazuya Shibuya (Ghost Hunt), Jack Marshak (Friday the 13th the Series), Nick Hawley (Sleepy Hollow), Artie Neilsen (Warehouse 13)

The Flake:

Fox Mulder (X-Files), Sam Winchester (Supernatural)*, Osamu Yasuhara (Ghost Hunt), Ian Matheson (She-Wolf of London), Waldo Butters (Dresden Files)

*I know the MotW rules use Sam as an example Spooky, but he's really more often about the research than the supernatural powers.

The Hard Case:

Karrin Murphy (The Dresden Files), Jennie Mills (Sleepy Hollow), Ashley James "Ash" Williams (Evil Dead), Lancer (Fate/Stay-Night)

The Initiate:

Rin Tohsaka (Fate/Stay-Night), Monk (Ghost Hunt), Morgan (Dresden Files), John Brown (Ghost Hunt), Ayako Matsuzaki (Ghost Hunt), Molly Carpenter (The Dresden Files)

The Monstrous:

Angel (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Eric Kord (Werewolf), Randi Wallace (She-Wolf of London), Adam (Frankenstein)

The Mundane:

Mai Taniyama (Ghost Hunt), Ayako Mitsuduri (Fate/Stay-Night), Xander (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Cordelia (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)

The Professional:

Dana Scully (X-Files), Myka Bering (Warehouse 13), Abbie Mills (Sleepy Hollow)

The Snoop:

Kolchak (Kolchak the Nightstalker), Agent Myers (Hellboy)


The Spooky:

John Constantine (Hellblazer), Harry Dresden (Dresden Files), Sakura Matou (Fate/Stay-Night), Willow (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Illyasviel von Einsbern (Fate/Stay-Night), Caster (Fate/Stay-Night), Rider (Fate/Stay-Night), Archer (Fate/Stay-Night)

The Summoned:

Hellboy (Hellboy), Berserker (Fate/Stay-Night)

The Wronged:

Dean Winchester (Supernatural)

These are just examples, anybody could come up with their own.  But imagine five of these characters stuck together trying to figure what caused them to appear in this house.
