KViSR Rocks!
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
KViSR Rocks! is an adventure published by Leading Edge Games in 1987 for Living Steel, a post-apocalyptic cyberpunk role-playing game.
KViSR Rocks! is a scenario that describes Vissertown in detail, as well as the Vissers, people infected with a virus that renders them permanently incapable of existing in groups larger than a street gang without lashing out in mindless violence. The adventure also suggests options for diverging from the plot, and some suggestions of future uses for Vissertown in a longterm campaign are offered.
Plot summary
The manager of Vissertown radio station KViSR hires the player characters to investigate a series of murders.[1] It soon becomes apparent that the murders are part of an arcane ritual that must be stopped in order to save Vissertown.[2]
Publication history
Leading Edge Games released Living Steel in 1987, and as game historian Shannon Appelcline noted, "Leading Edge immediately supported Living Steel quite well with: the Operation Seven Swords sourcebook (1987), which gave even more depth to the history of the Seven Worlds; the KViSR Rocks! adventure (1987); and the High Tech Weapon Data Supplement (1987), all of which shared the high-tech Living Steel weaponry with Phoenix Command."[3]: 182
KViSR Rocks! is a 64-page saddle-stapled softcover book written by Barry Nakazono and David McKenzie, with interior artwork and graphic design by Jon Conrad, Toni Dennis, Nadir Elfarra, and Scott Miller, and cover art by Steve Huston.[1]
