A quickie today, this is an idea that showed up from a random conversation at work a few years ago.
In pittsburgh there is a real estate development company called burns and scalo, and they are all over the place. They sell real estate I think they renovate, you see trucks and signs everywhere.
The game would be a one shot, the players are all roofers who haven't been working for b&s very long. They would be a mix of hard working blue collar peeps and young idiots who just want to snort pills and text all day.
They meet the orginal Burns, an old man who laments his kids friendly corporate image for the company. They have a brief run in with another roofing crew who all seem like they just got out of prison with cold eyes. Then they get their work order for the day. Fixing a roof somewhere in crafton.
The start of the roofing exploits are about getting out of work and trying to play on your phone without getting caught. The foreman has to try to get as much work done as possible. There may be mini games involved.
After a bit the players hear screaming, and ultimately find a group of 1970s vampires living in the house. They are trying to eat people, they have bee gees beards and afros. If the players call the cops the police respond with, hey that's supposed to be your problem. It turns out b&s have been contracted by the city to murder vampires.
The work orders got screwed up and the players got the dead eyed crews work order for the day. Old man burns tells them they have to kill the vampires or things will get bad and they have to do it now.
The rest of the adventure is just normal guys with nail guns fighting soul train.
Now the cats out of the bag and I can't run this. But at least it's out of my head.
