Wet Grandpa don't care to say much, but his brain is always running. (It was that way before, too). Mostly now it plays back his wife's freshly dead eyes and his own terrible drowning. Sadness and fear haunt his living corpse.  In his dreams he reaches out and the water listens. In dreams (and unexamined thoughts) he needs others to be like him. And so the river thrashes landward.

Wet Grandpa is system neutral/D20 agnostic adventure for however many players you can gather together. In it they will seek dubious treasure, find a village on its last legs, and possibly avert a quite unnatural disaster.

Melancholy and Magic in Psuedo-Limbo-America

Wet Grandpa is what you give your players when they’re tired of villains. Wet Grandpa isn’t evil, and that might not sit right with them. It puts them in a lonely world of strange people and wild nature, which is just what you want from an adventure, but the whole thing feels… lonely. Sad. A little regretful. To me, Wet Grandpa is, ultimately, a puzzle of morality and reevaluating your approach. As a game master, I’ve enjoyed the challenge of piecing together a deeply personal story for my players. For players, this will probably leave your characters changed. The cover of this book is unassuming. Behind it, the writing is rich and tender and raw, and like the best settings and stories of our hobby, leaves just the perfect amount to the imagination.

I’d buy more books set in this strange, folkloric middle-American land. You should try this one.
