A downloadable transmission

Grim news: they're after our children. Across the city, kids' television programming is being hijacked, subverting their usual slop with strange signals and inscrutable messaging.

The Kids Are All Wrong

Late night static. Hostile airwaves. Kids sneak out and they won't say where. Pets come home with bloody fur and too many legs. It's all too much for parents to handle. Won't somebody think of the children?

A ░▓▒▓-Studded Cast!

This supplement contains six pirate broadcasts and the freaks behind them. Each spreads slowly through the city, warping the locals to unclear ends. Cut the signal to earn a paycheck; study the source for deeper reward. Tune in now to meet Saint Cyan, L▒ R░veur, C░▓n▒░l Y▓▒, and more!

Made for Electric Bastionland but adaptable to any RPG in the electric age.

CW: body horror, children in peril

thanks for reading! 

this should be playable in liminal horror with a little extra work - it's meant to slot into a Bastionland pointcrawl, but all that really means is you want some space to breathe between each signal. the ideal feeling is that the city is being taken over and you have to move all over the place to stop it. if you add an encounter between each signal (even something simple like a traffic jam) and lean into the flavor of traveling to different parts of the city, it should probably work out fine.
