This was the opening session. The whole idea behind it was to get them into the Hunting business but in a way they would get some backup from the get go. So I decided to add a major NPC from the beginning named Wyatt. I thought there should be a feeling of horror and awe but that they could do something about it.
My idea was to make sure that Dajana and Billy would be on a spot where they would encounter a pack of vampires, this was very easy I decided that Dajana’s boyfriend had to work late at his office and that she would go there to pick him up. Billy would be there to pick up his payment from Dajana’s boyfriend as he was the Window cleaner of the law firm.
At that moment I decided that Wyatt a main NPC would save them after the vampires would have killed everyone except for Dajana and Billy. And from that point he would gave them the choice to hunt monsters. After some thinking I realized that it wouldn’t be enough motivation for them to leave their homes and possibly live on the road and even become criminals in the eyes of the public.

So then Tessa was born a blonde young looking (around 19 years old) vampire with a pink dress, she looks very cute and very innocent but I intended for her to be a huge bitch. And I had planned that she would get away so they would have motivation to go after her with the help of Wyatt. Revenge is a great motivation to get your players going especially in a setting like Supernatural.
I like to give my players moments to use emotions while they are playing so I decided to kill off Dajana’s boyfriend when she was looking at him and afterwards his head would end up in her lap because well that seemed like fun at that moment. At that moment I was glad that the player I play with are great with these kind of situations.
Well after Tessa would escape they would go with Wyatt and he would teach them some basics about hunting. But no too much because part of the fun in my opinion is learning while playing especially in Supernatural just watch the first few seasons they are learning and I think that was very awesome.
After a few days Wyatt send them to do a job on their selves and I intended it to be a fairly easy job but I could have known it would not go as I intended it.
I decided that there would be a coven of young wannabe witches who did a ritual and one of the kids would have died and that the kid (her) would become a ghost that would be controlled by her best friend who was also in the coven. It was a simple concept and I had some things in my mind that I wanted to do.
1. A scene at a big lake. Using Ghost Telekinesis so that the would know what that was.
2. Using a high school
3. Killing off the Wicca kids one by one because the best friend was going insane
Further then that I did not prepare, so it went very well but I changed a big detail during the play, I thought how in the freaking hell could a 16 year old girl learn a ritual to control ghosts that is extreme difficult magic in the Supernatural setting. So I decided that 2 best friends had necklaces with each others blood in it and those together where a cursed object that would bind a ghost to the other. In the end the best friend died so it all went good.
So that is the first look Behind the Scenes of this campaign.
