I have been the GM of several campaigns, but only in this latest one have I begun fully write what happens, its a very special one, because it utilizes nothing more than imagination and writing it down later, so far i have made 0 use of any pen paper or dices, im basing most of the psychic fenomenae of gurps rules for psychic but not everything is avaible.

And finally, in this scenario, psychic potential is something native to inteligent life.

Ill keep posting them so eventually it might be something big.


3 individuals Wake up in the jungle, 2 man and 1 woman, with complete and utter amnesia, they cant remember how did they get to this point, almost as if they woke up from a long dream, into adult life!

They had an inherent mental connection, indeed they first communication came into the form of telephathy, as they tried to understand what was happening.

After brief debate they realized they they just didnt knew anything about whatever was going on, and one of them suggested to the others (all telephatically) to seek shelter an idea they found comforting and went on to execute it.

Its importante to realize that the 3 beings didnt knew exacly what they were sheltering themselves against, but something in the back of their mind said the world was dangerous.

After walking for a half a day, they found a small cave big enough to support a fire and some people around it.

Problem is, they didnt knew how to make fire!

There was a fallen tree very old and dry in front of the cave, and as the night began to fall, and as one of the individuals started to feel really cold, suddenly, from a instinctive need to get warm, the whole tree burst into flames! This was an interesting development on many levels, many which will only realize millenia later, lets stick to the present.

By now, the 3 beings, were calling each other, by the first meaningfull perception they had of each other, the shelter seeking one, was called Shelter, the one of created the fire was Fire, and the Woman was Woman.

Following day, the man decided to go gathering wood, and foraging food, when they were about 300 meters away from the cave, they received a telephathic SOS from the woman, they knew it was her, and they knew she wanted help and she was back at the cave.

They abandoned all they had and ran back as fast as they could, when they got there they discovered something very disturbing.

In the distance, coming out of a dense jungle like fores tinto the more open plain was a group of around 20 people carrying big sticks.

Fire Shelter and Woman started a very importante conversation, they realized they didnt knew if these people were hostile, in fact, they assumed there were others, but these seemed so diferente from them, they were lower, thinner, all scarred and had tons of age old wounds that never quite healed.

There was no one in this group that quite looked like them, quickly game the notion that these people were somehow, inferior savages, as if almost by perception. From then a new point arose, if we are superior, than what should superior people do ?

Shelter didnt think it was safe for that many savages to live in such a tiny place, altho he was interested in the notion of having more people who could protect him.

Woman felt pity on their poor wounded souls, and altho didnt at first manifest, there was a genuine feeling of caring for them, almost instinctivelly a motherly love.

Fire didnt knew at first what to do, but he had the idea of trying to communicate with the savages, about 50 yard distance he engaged in telephatic conversation with what seemed to be the leader of the savages, he was simple “Who are you and what do you seek?”

The tribal leader, was stunned, he had just heard a voice in his mind, so much clear than any voice he ever heard, surely this should be the voice of the gods.

He naturally screamed, in his own super primitive tongue, albeit a functional one, either way, what we will get is an anglicanization of whatever was discussed.

“My children, drop your weapons and bow down for we have found them we have found the gods of Fire”

“Gods of Fire?” Fire replied now speaking this mans native tongue, better than anyone he ever heard speaking it!

“Our old tribe, the fire in it has died, the tribe started fighting each other, the burned man now commands the tribe, and it is utterly fireless!”

“tell me more of this old tribe of yours”

“We used to live down river, we received the gift of fire from thundergod many generations ago, and have kept it tightly guarded in the firepit, but one our tribe greatest warriors, Buairn was caugh with the wife of another man and daughter of the tribe chief”

“How many of you were there?” Seemed like a natural question to Fire

“About 10 times what we are”

“And what happened then ?”

“The burned man didnt die from the flames, he managed to break free hom his post and make a run for first place he could, the fire pit, but he was surrounded and thrown in there, and then again he didnt die, he screamed and crawled but he didnt die, and worse, he put out the fire! Our essential fire!”

“How could this man survive?”

“No one knows, he is now marked by the flames, and some of his warriors claimed he was some sort of god and started killing everyone who oppose them, shortly after, the village was under his firm control, he ordered many killed right then, and we ran before he had a chance to adress us”

“And how did you get here”

“Well we gathered our supplies and ran for weeks, along the river, we saw smoke coming from the jungle and figured it could be a Fire and fire is sacred so we needed to come”

“Sacred?” At this point we will start learn some words in this primitive language.

“Yes, when we had fire everyone was happy and the village was without trouble, when it was put out, so was the life of our tribe, we know that a tribe without a fire is not a tribe, so we came searching for the fire to reborn our tribe”

At this point fire was talking telephathically with the shelther and woman, and they agreed, it seemed like these people were genuine, almost fanatic in their belief this was meant to be, they decided to at the very least, help them regain their fire, anda the very most, join their tribe.

Radiply they all settled around the cave, and engaged in conversation, in their primitive language Fire sounded like Vvix, so thats what they started calling fire (and he kind of liked it) Shelter sounded like Daldred, and his name became as such, Woman sounded like Mellana and that became their name for reference for these little tribe, who started calling themselves Vvinari or the fire people.

Daldred had some sort of compulsion for security, Always trying to figure out ways to make the shelter safer or their situation safer in general, way more than anyone every bothered thinking about.

Vvix found that the Young daughter of the tribes chief was offered to him in marriage and he accepted, it was not as if she was nearly as beatifull as Mellana, but she was pretty, and this was all very new to him, didnt seem like he should deny that offer at all.

And even one night after, it was clear to Mellana in some weird way, a psychic way, that Vvix’s wife got preagnent.

They showed their prowess in creating fire, easily, out of nowhere, only with their minds, and this awed the savages to no end, now they were sure this was the reward for believing in the fire.

We will continue this later

After a few weaks exchaging knowledge with their followers, Daldred started claiming that place was not secure, and that they needed to move.

They would move west, to the big river, and then north towards the mountain.

Took them a few days to gather all supplies they wanted, but with the help of the whole group, they had great success, with food enough for the trip or so they believed.

They started moving, towards the river, their group was big and they waved fire, they had no problem with predators in the 4 days it took to get to the river with everyone.o

The big river was big, almost so big you cant see the other side, the water was green and muddy, and the dense forest almost entered the river in some points.

According to Daldred, this was defenitely not a safe place, the forest and the river, predators everywhere, and downriver there were the Fireless people.

So daldred decided to go up river, and they continued their journey, they didnt go exacly riverside, because vegetation made that difficult and because of some need for secrecy, they feared encountering a hostile group, or some major predator.

They wandered along the river for 3 weeks, until they arrived at the base of the great mountain, 25 days later, it was a huge mountain, its base had a radious of several kilometers, from it flowed a small river, it had a big waterfall in the base coming from a very small lake on a small platou on the mountain, seemed like the perfect place.

There was only way way to get to the small mountain lake without climbing, and Daldred tought it was good for a shelter for some reason, it was trail 2 yards wide leading to around the base to a very small piece of land connected to the lake, and on the other side of the lake there was a small plateau, around 2km² in area.

they were going up mountain slowly, and had to sleep on the way, and in the middle of the night, they were attacked!

A dozen of beings came, grumling and moaning, Vvix and Daldred were taken by an instinct to act, and created a wall of fire on both sides of the trail, and sustained it.

Behind the fire, they could hear the grumbling and muttering of whatever it was had come to harass them, and it admired, and feared the fire, and even lighted some sticks on the fire, 2 hours later there was no more notice of them.

they waited until the sun arose, around 8 hours later.

In the mean time, the tribe felt comfort in the fire, but was scared from whatever was on the other side.

Vvix and Daldred, suspected these were tribals, living near by, probably on the place they are going.

The attempts to communicate telephatically were all failed, as if they were damaged somehow

Altho there were a lot of debate and opposition, specially from Mellana, Daldred and Vvix were 2 to 1, and they decided to strike at them before they could strike at them.

They went thro the fire towards the inner lake, when they got there, as they suspected there was a tribe of savages, very very savage.

Their tribal grounds was filled with sticks with people stuck on it, skeletons all around, in the very middle of the village, where the fire they had "stolen" was shinniny faint light in a terrible scene.

There was a massive skeleton, from a creature, some sort giant bull, in front of it holding a torch there was a man, using leather from some colorfull animal orange and black, he also used the animals head in his had, to distinct himself in some way.

Around the giant bull skeleton there were about 50 people, all wounded, mangled, pierced, and alive! They were all sort of worshiping that skeleton and when the 2 beings appeared, they were quickly attacked!

From all sides of the little plateau came attackers, they were far, and had nothing to really use as ranged weapons other than sticks and stones, while their enemies were severely outnumbered, they were orders of magnitude more powerfull than the savages.

They used fire to start burning people, so far their main means of attack, one burning individual successfully threw a big rock in Daldreds eye, breaking his face and causing a major wound, a wound that might knock most people unconscious or simply kill them right then and there, but not Daldred, not Vvix and not Mellana.

As he stod up his face in blood, he discovered a new power, telekinesis, for we got the same stone and projected it more than 100km per hour into the head of their shaman who was commanding all standing to strike in some ultra primitive way.

Vvix seeing Daldred use of telekinesis, started using it too, it was almost as if they almost had this power, and just didnt knew it.

They started defending themselves from projectiles with it, and when the savages met the sight of their stones being deflected in midair or randomly catching fire.

One by one all the savages died, the nature of their hideout left no place to run.

The only survivors were small children, small enough not to be able to fight, so they were abandoned by their mothers in the heat of battle, around 12 children.

Vvix said "lets take care of these children and see if they can become worthy people and members of the tribe"

Daldred "yes I agree, our power is supreme, we should assume they will recognize us as such specially since they are so young, and in a few years we can use them for several uses of the tribe"

Vvix was impressed by Daldreds expedience, it was almost as if he knew something, at least he knew the world was very dangerous, because he was always trying to make everyone more safe.

They telepathically called mellana, and she brought the tribe over the course of a few mins, and Vvix and Daldred used their newfound telekinesis, to clear the site of shocking views, specially corpses and skeletons, something about them found that instinctively durty.

The tribe arrived at the lake border and could see a few hundrer metters away a perfect island like plaeatou bording the waterfall river they now saw and the mountain behind it, they lost a very long time trying to find a way to cross the huge water stream, but 2 days later, Vvix made an amazing discovery.

He was trying to cross the river and the current was too strong and it dragged him towards the waterfall, he didnt knew quite how it came to him but when he was a few yards away from falling down the waterfall, he suddenly frozen all the waterfall (created a big arc of ice in the 90º part)
It not only saved his life, but allowed all of them to cross the waterfall, and be amazed by this new potential, had not only they discovered cryokinesis, but they invented bridges!

Now Daldred thought, its time to build up some defenses...
