Hello nerd friends!
I am running a GURPS one-shot and need assistance. It is writing assistance, not numbers assistance.
So, players sent to town to fight zombie plague. Eventually lead to mad wizard castle. Mad wizard castle is full of illusions and more zombie fun.
Final room, mad wizard is possessed of super speed and strength and is generally a hardy guy who wants to kill them. Great. Fight fight fight.
Mad Wizard has magic item hidden beneath an illusion that occasionally shoots out invisible waves of NOPE. These waves of NOPE are minus to HP but add to will saves against illusions. The player must figure out that their pain is to their advantage, discover the magic item, and destroy it to stop the zombie plague.
I want it to be unclear that the win condition is to destroy something in the room and not the wizard himself. But they do need some sort of riddle or clue in the previous rooms in order to figure it out, I'd imagine.
I am bad at riddles and clues. Help!
