Carrion Crown for Kids


Carrion Crown


I may be GMing for a group of kids around 12 and I like to be vivid with descriptions.

What are good points to censor and good ways to censor? I know a few dead bodies are pretty par to the game so I'm good on that part but reading further along there is implied human/skum rape farms that I'm thinking of ways to work around without admitting that skum are keeping human women to breed.

I decided against Rise of the Runelords because that goes as far as corpulent hillbilly inbred mutant necrophiles and thought that was a few steps too far for twelve year olds. Starting a new thread over in the advice section for APs that are more kid friendly just in case.


I switched Wake of the Watcher with The Harrowing.


The Whispering Way usually mutilates the mouth of the corpses they leave so speak with dead can't be used on them. A much more kid friendly alternative would be to cast decay corpse on the bodies to create a skeleton and then remove the jawbone.


most kids aren't going to think about that.

really its more in what you don't say then what you do.


I described it somewhat comically.

one of my young players: "What do you mean a stone gargoyle fell on his face! my god! how many gargoyles does this country have! and why do they fall on people's faces!"*

*might be paraphrased, it's been a couple years.


Still waiting on that review for Sonic Youth. :-D


The only thing that might require special treatment on your part would come in the following areas:

Book 2+4:

1)The investigation of Herstag in Book 2 revolves around kids killed by a former child-killer turned wraith. This part might give them nightmares.
2)Book 4 has some pretty disturbing imagery, from the breeding between Skum and Humans, things exploding out of people's heads, losing all color and the will to live, and mental insanity. I recommend cutting the insanity mechanic unless you feel they can handle it.
