Solo Adventure: “Midnight Heist at the Blue Orchid”
Welcome to your first-level GangBusters solo adventure. I’ll act as judge, narrate the scenes, and call for your actions and dice rolls. You control a single 1st-level gangster trying to prove yourself to your boss by pulling off a risky job. Let’s begin.
Adventure Premise
You’re a small-time hood in 1927 Chicago, known for your quick hands and nerve. Tonight, your boss “Big Tony” wants you to sneak into the rival O’Connor crew’s speakeasy—the Blue Orchid—and swipe their daybook. That ledger could bankrupt Mrs. O’Connor’s operation and boost your standing.
Key objectives:
Infiltrate the speakeasy without alerting the bouncers.
Find and steal the daybook.
Escape through the alleys before the fuzz arrives.
Rewards for success: increased respect in Big Tony’s crew, a few extra dollars, and a chance at promotion.
