Leashed-Witch Looking for a Hunters Game
Hey everyone, I'm hoping to find a GM who would be willing to run a monster/witch-hunter style game with a slight twist. To be specific I'm hoping to play a version of the Boxed Crook trope taking the role of the 'leashed witch' to a group of hunters. Good examples of a similar idea might be Witchhunter Robin, where the Craft-user members of the team are kept under close watch for signs of them going too far and becoming Witches, and even Hellboy to some extent, though that dynamic is a little more amicable than what I'm envisioning.
Obviously this sort of story trends toward darker subject matter and would probably require a Mature or Adult game depending on how the player group goes. The nature of the scenario is such that there would be a fair amount of in-character tension between the hunters and the leashed witch. I consider that dynamic to be rife with potential for interesting interactions.
As far as system goes I'm fairly flexible. I'd prefer something with a bit more crunch to it than Freeform, with nWoD and CofD being personal favorites. Just running as a mortal with a few of the supernatural merits from Hurt Locker in a party of tier 1 or 2 Hunters could capture the right feel fairly well I think. I'm also familiar with Fate Core and Dresden Files Accelerated, either of which could be a good fit. More esoteric options might include Hero (I have 6e), and CJ Carella's Witchcraft.
Ideally this would be a game with other players taking the role of the hunters, but I'd be happy to talk over a solo version as well. If anyone is willing to run such a game or think it might be fun to play as one of the hunters feel free to chime in!
