Publisher's synopsis[[edit] | [edit source]]
Showcasing some of the newest talent, this PDF collection presents ten short adventures for your TARDIS team, taking them across space and time to distant, Dalek-scoured worlds, mysterious hotels, futuristic game reserves, and invaded virtual cities. Each ‘episode’ can be played as a quick one-shot, or as inspiration for a longer adventure. You could even run all of them to create your own Doctor Who series!
The Beast of the New Forest sends the characters to 1100 CE into the New Forest, where they may accidentally prevent a historical assassination. The Appliances of Auttley Isle is a festive tale of migrating aliens and tiny burglars, while Do Androids Dream of Electric Antelopes? presents the characters with a moral dilemma on a robotic big-game hunt. Flesh of the Vampire finds the group visiting a theme park where the ‘vampire’ hosts are more realistic than they seem, while Ground Strike unearths an old Dalek mining operation that is mysteriously still active.
The Mad Gasser of Mattoon attempts to resolve the classic mystery of people being tranquilised in 1944’s Illinois, and The Night Terrors takes the TARDIS to Rookholme in England, 1976, where the villagers’ nightmares are coming to life. A hotel in London where various rooms are trapped in different time-periods finds itself with some Unwelcome Guests, while a strange stone seems to feed off of a village’s potential in Endless Summer. Finally, in Time and Time Again, the characters find themselves trapped in a time-loop on a damaged starship.
